[ch1873857]

scary. have you sold any of these yet?

[landins13]

terrifying

[DJ-of-E]

only mentions price and specs. Someone could get oem for about the same price.

[koukistylejdm]

lifetime warranty.... is the hole in the block part of it?

[driftage240]

Oh boy now this shit

[Battle Cat]

What a deal. I've always wanted a full built motor with a hole in the side of it. Ordering right nao!

[Fatboy Garage]

Please keep negative comments to yourself. If you have any questions PM us. We have used 100s of our rods with no problem.

[Juantwo3]

^^^^you guys have gone threw 100's of rods???!!!!!!!!!!!! :O

[Fatboy Garage]

About 100 of them including testing, personal use and rods sold to customers. Not one single warranty brought back to us, not one single problem.

[Edwin562]

Not until someone who bought these and tried them out, we shouldn't jump into conclusions.

Look at most of the cars for sale, alot of them have godspeed arms and intercoolers yet there are here trolling. pathetic noobs.

[azndoc]

Please post pics of the 20-25 vehicles currently using this rods in their motor please.

kthxbye

[Fatboy Garage]

I won't have pictures of all cars but our time attack sr20 had the rods, Chris Billedo's build KA had the rods. Drift Speed who is not in business anymore can also vouch for the rods. Thanks :D

[future]

Wow lol he said pow

He blew his engine lol, now you tell me if was built with godspeed engine parts? Makes sense now.

This is the scariest thing godspeed has made to date

[Fatboy Garage]

Pow blew a STOCK KA that was in his car because his built motor had an oil pump go bad. His new motor is running our rods combined with super tech pistons.

[i need tires]

Ill give it a chance, thanks for answering all my questions Chris

[Fatboy Garage]

No problem i need tires! Enjoy the rods!

[redss]

I am sure in a few months, we will be seeing GS FORGED PISTONS. just in time for Xmas.

[DJ PoW]

I personally have a set of the rods in my new build motor and as far as break in goes, no problems at all. Mind you I am a Garrett sponsored driver, I'm sure 30lbs with a 2867 will be no problem. Thank you Godspeed for making internals affordable.

[DJ PoW]

Pow blew a STOCK KA that was in his car because his built motor had an oil pump go bad. His new motor is running our rods combined with super tech pistons.

Yes, thanks Chris. I had a completely stock KA in my car when it blew. As most of you know, a stock KA can be pretty strong but what most don't know was that boost was turned up to 16 lbs for that run. It just couldn't take it.

[GeneStarWindGSW]

Lol at all the noobs, you guys are pretty stupid if you don't read. Anyways I've been using the rods for quite some time. CRS is a very important part number if you guys are smart but then again none of you that bash godspeed are.

so are you saying these are similar or close to eagle rods then based on the part number?

[Hellother]

Tough product to sell. A good point to make is whether warranty covers product only or residual damage due to product failure. Either way it'd be helpful to show some potential buyers how far your actually pushed these rods before an issue arose. Since we all know the name isnt going to sell it for you, maybe some cold hard facts would persuade the people on edge about these.
Just some food for thought

[anti tyler]

i think the biggest thing is actually buying from a legit seller, and not hopping on ebay with a knock-off brand that breaks on a whim.

nevertheless there's no reason to hop in a thread and downtalk an advertiser just because you don't think they're going to perform well. if you're THAT concerned with it, then don't buy them.


i personally will give it a shot, if you build/tune/treat your car right, then there's no reason you should have any issues. after all, like every part, it's going to fail sooner or later.

[Fatboy Garage]

Thank you Tyler, well said. When you are ready let me know pm me :). Thanks!

[Battle Cat]

Does it come with ARP Hardware?

[D.Adams]

Not bad at all. I'm cool with seeing new parts come out for a cheep price . Will I buy probably not till I see more people running them with no issues. Sorta look like the eagle H beam rods.

Give it to godspeed though people aleast there trying to help people who can't afford a $800 set of rods

[funes]

man really?

[unseen-forces98]

Lmao this is funny..

[mantas]

Are these plastic just like my control arms that broke? I gotta say gs makes cheap shit that works, lets have some zilvians try these out and leave feedback i might need some eventually. Lol.

[DJ PoW]

I love the dumb people of Zilvia. If you guys don't like Godspeed or don't have anything nice to say then don't post at all.

Go buy your Eagle Rods.... :D

Also Mantas, what broke on you? I'm interested in knowing myself. Have you contact Godspeed about them?

[SpOOlin13]

Never broke an eagle rod or billet crank shaft in over 15years..pathetic,but keep the love flowing:bowrofl:GS= cheap,unreliable,poor quality crap..Enough said.

[Banana_Cute]

A bunch of clowns in here. Just because its cheap doesnt mean it's shitty. Really? Their Intercoolers seems fine, and i dont know about all you other fucktards in here, but did you guys read the description GODSPEED has and Eagle rods have? identical material used. 4340 steel. If you can buy the same shit for cheaper, because its a newly based company, you wouldnt? why talk shit when you, yourself, dont give it a chance?..Fucking morons.

Its not a part that moves or is under any real amount of stress. Do yourself a favor go look at the piping on your GSP I/C then go look at and feel a greddy kit or hks. Much higher quality.

[OutlawLui]

Such haters lol, all these negative comments are funny lol

proceed..

Yeah both the bearings broke at the same time on my rucas. Not a big deal but i still got gs rucas because they are cheap and the gen 2 has bigger bearings. Like i said before gs is cheap shit but it works and thats what matters to me, im not willing to but $400 arms for a pos 17 year old car that is not worth more than 10k lol.

[Banana_Cute]

That's why i stated "It seems fine". It works, and does its job. For this Rod on the other hand, they're using the same material. And from the pictures provided, it's as flawless as the picture Eagle rods provide.

I wouldnt know, I've never really "built" a motor that i had change the rods, let alone bearings. And that's why I'm not bashing on this company. I've had Godspeeds control arms, and they never gave me a problem. Except for the Fanboys that hates on them.

And I've ridden on multiple cars, a long with mine with Megan tracks, that has godspeed suspension, K-sports, KTS..etc.. and i gotta say, both cars I rode, 88 supra and 93 coupe, equipped with Godspeed coilovers are the least my favorite. I think I suggested upping the kg on their spring rates because they rode like their on blown/cut suspension. Especially the supra.

but lets move on from that and on to the rods.

[shinobis13hb]

i agree with that idiot mantas;)
plus some people just really dont know that most if not ALL parts come from the SAME places .
if you have the money to buy 800$ rods then do it. if you don't these would be a great alternative,yes sometimes there is a different in quality for the price,
ALOT of people in the 240sx community simply CANT afford the BIGGEST name brand parts. if there wasnt places like godspeed the damn community would probably be dead.. so if anything i thank them. i put my faith in most godspeed product.

[future]

Okay fine newbs. Go buy a brand new set of godspeed coils

When they blow in a week with street driving let me know if you still support godspeed and knockoffs

[95_S14]

Wow lol he said pow

He blew his engine lol, now you tell me if was built with godspeed engine parts? Makes sense now.

This is the scariest thing godspeed has made to date

It's funny all The post I ever see from you are you crying like a little bitch , this coming from the guy that had a "clean" s13 with fresh paint with stock s13 se wheels painted gold That was salvaged and you asked 4k for it lol well you said 3 then said you wouldn't selling it for less then 4 . Go build your dream ls1 or ls7 whatever you claim and stop hating on something you never used . Ok onto the rods I have had the gs rods in my redline time attack car and beat the shit out of it with no issues what so ever . I'll be the first to tell you , yes in the past gs sold some bunk parts and I would of never thought twice about fucking with them, then a very good friend of mine build his car with gs parts I told him they are shit and they will do nothing but break , well over the years they have been on the car with all the dirt drops, walls and even cars he tapped he has yet to have any issues with them, when I was building my ka I found this set for the ka and said fuck it I'll give it a shot and went to Ken who works for them , he said they have yet to have anyone throw a rod from any set they got , keep in mind I'm over 370whp with the rods still to this day not giving me a issue , I'm very well known on the fourm and in redline/gta , most of the people here posting talking shit are either new to the game , fanboys or hey your could of been how I was just didn't know , as someone said why would we spend 400 on 1 pair of arms for a car that's worth less then 10k , if your baller and can affort spl or any "highend" arms or rods then go for it, they have had the rods for a few years and now that they post them for a good price you all can talk shit , ok that's cool if they are shit I'm sure by now someone here would posted that they now have a hole in there block due to the rods or whatever , anyways hope to have someone talk shit so I can post again . Thank you chris and Ken from Godspeed for making parts that us non ballers can afford

[Juantwo3]

buddy of mine picked up some godspeed coils, they handle very well actually. hes had em on his ride for almost 2 years now and still dipppin.

[Jtuned_andy]

Its funny how all the people who are backing up Godspeed have a join date later than 2010. Please, these parts are shit quality and I wouldnt even sell them to my worst enemy. Do yourself a favor people and buy quality parts with documented track testing and quality research and design. Don't buy the products with no factual backing except for a few cheap ass fanbois on an internet forum who are whiteknighting for a shitty import knock off parts supplier with a terrible track record.

Damn, I joined in 2009. Am I still a fan boy? How is there no factual backing? How do you know Godspeed doesn't test their products on the track? I mean I know its your opinion but just because the products were "shit" before 2010 it doesn't mean that Godspeed did not improve on the products throughout the years. I'm just a fucking fan boy to you but I run EVERYTHING Godspeed on my car and I'm pretty fucking sure I drive my car harder than you and all the Godspeed hating fan boys hahaha. Please show me your mod list because I'd like to know what legit parts you run.

Hi,

I'm the little bitch with a POS car with everything Godspeed. I'm a real fan boy and I brag about big brands. I also have no money at all. OH and my car doesn't see track use. If you want to talk all this shit, I'll see you at XDC Texas on track.

PS My annual income is probably double yours, if NOT triple. (coolstorybro) hahahaha

Keep talking shit, I love it. I'll gladly put all Godspeed Parts on a car and challenge anyone to any motorsport. Drifting or Road Racing. I can't wait for the yumad comments lololol

I take it as "oh anything cars with Godspeed parts are pos".

Care to share your opinion Asleepaltima? I'd LOVE to hear it.

if the parts work they work. i have gs tension rods on my hatch. i have a cxracing i/c too. ive been a mech/tech for a long time. i know that only a handful of manufacturers actually build things and lots and lots of other "manufacturers" just put their stamps on them. perfect example is coil springs. only a few companies can afford the million dollars it takes to buy a coil making machine so of course, they buy them pre-coiled and market them as their own. same with radiators and intercoolers - sure the piping might be made by the company selling it but the cores themselves come from a much larger company that makes them for just about everyone. people just buy into the name and it makes them happy that they spent 500 bucks for something because its GOTTA be quality if its that expensive.
like i said, if it works it works - regardless of who "makes" it or badges it.

is this the opinion you were looking for?

[mantas]

No better way to sum it up. I cant justify spending thousands on a 240 thats not going to be worth half of what ill invest in it when i decide to sell it. So ill just enjoy whatever cheap parts it has, and if my arms decide to crap out in a few years it wont cost more than 100 to replace them.

Join date 2009 lol am I a fanboi!!!!! I'm sorry cool guy with a skyline what have you used on your car from them or is it all story that you hear? I like how nobody will post about mine because most people on here know I hated gs at one time then they started making better stuff and over time reAlly got a shit ton better , pow is right he could build and time attack car or drift car and do as good or better and I'd say better then every single person in this thread , it's funny I've had a few pm's asking things and even one from someone Trying to talk shit , again the parts are made for people that can't really afford super highend parts and I say super because there name had a shifty rep but Godspeed has done nothing but treat the fanboys/pos car owners good , anyone that has anything to say feel free to pm me , but I might not be the fun loving guy I am in the public

you must be narrow minded. Just because our join date is later than 2010. LOL. What a tool.

If anything, you're the biggest fan boy. Cock rider.

Call us a fanboy, rocks PBM's...when they prolli come from the same factory.. Scumbag fanboy.

I dont want to blow my cover. been around zilvia since 04.

[Tantwoforty]

I think alot of people just hate on gs so much because its cool to hate knock off stuff.

Shut the fuck up. If you wanna buy $800 rods instead of $200 rods then do it, Do you have god speed arms? why didn't you buy battle versions or tiens? because the gs ones work, cost 5 times less and you will prolly bend the bitch anyway, you cheap fuck.
Let god speed grow and make money, Stop hateing and enjoy the fact that people work hard so you can enjoy having cheap ass parts to fit your cheap ass budget for your cheap ass cars so you can impress your cheap ass friends and bone some cheap ass fat girl who likes jdm ass shit.
I run some Gs stuff, they honor the warranty like a boss.. call em up, bring your broken shit, get new shit most the time.. they are cool ass people who want to help people.
Regardless of if you wanna buy gs parts or not. coming in here and saying they suck or there low quality ect makes you a fuckin douche fanboy. keep your stupid ass opinions to your self because not only dose nobody give 2 shits about anything you have to say at all, but you just look like a prick, and why do you wanna be known as that prick ass dude on zilvia?

Maybe GS could do a stress test against a eagle rod or something? idk

Top 10 Trash Talker Statements and Facts

1. I won’t buy ebay cheap parts.
Fact: ebay is the biggest marketplace for performance parts, chances are all your parts on your cheap ass car are all from ebay.

2. Xyz is an ebay company.
Fact: again, ebay is the biggest marketplace, lot of companies sold on ebay, amazon, own website, anywhere can move the products. Chances are ebay has the lowest price for the EXACT same part.

3. These parts are made in china, I won’t put it on my car.
Fact: almost all of these parts are make in China anyway, directly or indirect. So don’t put any parts on your car at all. and throw away all your gadgets and underwear, because they are all made in China.

4. That part is going to break, cheap, bababah…
Fact: you don’t even own that part.

5. I only put “Brand name ABC” on my car.
Fact: can’t afford them.

6. I want to build my car 500+ HP.
Fact: don’t even know what 500HP really means and what it takes to build that kind of power and even when they do make the power, MF can’t even drive that monster.

7. I want to boost my car, a dual ball bearing GTxxx, fully built motor.
Fact: can’t tell the difference between a ball bearing vs a journal bearing turbo

8. Show me your dyno sheet:
Fact: can’t even read or understand the dyno graphic and the real meaning behind these #s.

9. I am a mechanic for 10 yrs, ASE certified.
Fact: Joe Doe noboby mechanic, can’t even take a simple part off the motor.

10. My Car is professional built and tuned.
Fact: all junk ass parts put together in the home garage.

And the real fact is the real people who really work on their cars don’t talk shit like this.

[towlie]

So what exactly does the warranty cover? When a rod decides it's better odd outside the block you'll send me one new replacement?

[rotarywar]

it covers your hole junk ass car and your gay ass stickers

[DRIFT-ELITE]

aaaahahahahaha this is fucking awesome....hey DJ POW take a chill pill, if a mod wants to h can ban you for like a month or whatever for being so "combative"..

as for GS parts..yeah I've used them and will continue to due to the main fact that i simply don't make the amount of money to be wasting on the exact same parts that they sell for a fraction of the cost...i didn't like gs for a while either until i had there fmic that actually BENT and DIDNT BREAK like my old greddy fmic did when i hit something...

i haven't tried the coil overs yet but i have friends that do have them and don't mind them minus the springs rates being to soft...exhaust systems, eh whatever they are all the same shit anyways..i always end up having my friend custom make me one that i like better..



idk, GS i guess is the POOR-MANS best friend since a lot if not most of the zilvia society a long with the drift community can't afford to pay for ''BRAND NAME'' parts like GREDDY, BLITZ, HKS, SPL??...

whatever, everyone entitled to their own opinion, thats mine....bashing continue.

shit just got real bro...speak on it son

[Fatboy Garage]

We appreciate the kind words and also the negativity. Everyone has an opinion and we don't mind listening.

As far as warranty goes, if one of our Rods break. We will warranty the part no problem, no questions ask.

As far as a rod going through the side of a block, chances are if a rod really does go through the block it probably wasn't the rods fault. It could be detonation or a poor engine builder. I'm not saying it's not possible because of a poor rod but every engine builder knows it could be a combination of things. In the end we will not warranty anything else that was damaged with the use of our parts.

Again we appreciate the kind words and negativity. Thank you all and let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

[240dream]

Obviously gs knows there rep isn't the best. If I spent alot of money at a machine shop hot tanking,blueprinting,decking ext would I put gs rods in unsure if they will fail and ruin my motor no. I think gs need to show facts, hp#'s what these rods can take and what it takes to break them. If they prove they are reliable why not buy them but until then..

We appreciate the kind words and also the negativity. Everyone has an opinion and we don't mind listening.

As far as warranty goes, if one of our Rods break. We will warranty the part no problem, no questions ask.

As far as a rod going through the side of a block, chances are if a rod really does go through the block it probably wasn't the rods fault. It could be detonation or a poor engine builder. I'm not saying it's not possible because of a poor rod but every engine builder knows it could be a combination of things. In the end we will not warranty anything else that was damaged with the use of our parts.


I really don't know how to put my thoughts into words, but I would LOVE to know how you can determine the true root cause of failure when someone ventilates a block. Sure we can point to detonation marks atop a piston and assume that's what cranked a rod out of it, but how can we say it wasn't soemthing else?

...I mean truthfully if a rod fails under normal usage, and tears apart an engine, I'd be PISSED. I know it happens, but to throw the 'we warranty our product' on an internal part is scary if you ask me...I view that as a 'hey it may happen, buyer beware' type comment. When I'm buying rods and pistons I don't even want to consider a warranty, as in the grand scheme of things, they shouldn't break, that's why I'm upgrading...ya know?

I'm not interested in Brand A vs Brand B arguments in regard to who makes the rods...bottom line is a rod shouldn't bust. To offer a warranty ona 60 dollar rod is cool and all, but when that engine tweaks a rod and rips the cylidner to shreads, the last thing on my mind is thinking 'oh cool, I get a free rod out of this mess'....

That's a good argument and that could really go either way. On the one hand it may be seen as a part of the whole "you get what you pay for" thing, where one may be purchasing a set of rods that is comparable to anything Greddy or HKS sells, but a bigger brand name company for all its expense may be more willing to compensate for any collateral damage.

On the other hand there is the point that should be considered that when one takes on this level of modification involving cracking the engine open and tooling around with the internal bits; you're sort of taking on a certain level of risk along with it, and it is to be understood that there is this chance of shit blowing apart and there is not much that can Greddy or Tomei will be able to do for you.

Whether you spend $60 or $600 you're taking the fate of your engine and all of its internals into your own hands the minute you (or a reputable shop) loosens the first cam journal bolt.

You're right though, a rod (or any other internal component) shouldn't fail, but it does happen and when it does I think the owner is boned whether there's a warranty attached or not.

THIS more than anything else.. You really need to push these things and give us proof... I want to see when these rods will fail... I would not mind buying a product that works.

Please.. We need more dyno sheets, Videos. Abuse the hell out of these and prove they work..

I tried to get actual information in a polite way and all I got was igored, so don't hold your breath on them providing any real data on their product. Thumbs down.

Sadly that seems to be the trend. Every time i ask for the the facts, it gets ignored.. Here and on other forums.

Rods are not the thing that is going to fail first, it's the wrist pin, bearing,piston, and oiling. Stock rods can hold over 300hp.

I know stock rods can hold 300. In fact, on KA-T.org there have been a number of 400hp KA's with bone stock engines. just good tuning..

How will these rods hold up?
