Godspeed Radiators Beware
Friend at https://www.facebook.com/RETuningServiceFactory posted these up, he has a shop and someone brought this in. It is a radiator , i believe he cut the stem off to look at it.

Some guys are trying to say it is not authentic Godspeed, but perhaps a knock off...hmmmm

Thought this would be appropriate to post here since alot of you guys seem to run godspeed

Now I've read EVERYTHING! A knock off of junk to begin with!? Oh man, Whoever those guys are, I don't know how anyone could say this with a straight face...

Don't skimp out with buying this type of stuff kids...

Thats some of the worst welds I've ever seen. Looks like my weld using a Harbor Freight wire fed welder.

I am also not surprised. Should have just taken a dermal to the inside of the neck.

What was the point of all this other than to waste $100.

Does not shock me at all, people who swear by their shitty arms with cast joints do. Godspeed cant even manage to keep the sick ass red paint on the product, what makes you think that 8 year old girl can lay some awesome welds

Strange. Not to say that Godspeed is quality shit, but I've got one of their radiators in my s12 and it works just fine...and did not look like that lol.

Maybe someone was quitting that day haha

But think of all the money you can save and spend on parts that really matter... like paint glitter and stickers.

I don't see what the big deal is. This is something that should be expected with a $100 radiator.

Now, on a different note, HKS has pulled some stupid shit. Check out this Hi-Power true dual for a G35.
