IIRC i seen these on Vortex, which is where Forge get them from.


Even tho this one will fit i'd prefer to go to the proper Ibiza one.

 

[JIMYU]

yeah I would rather the ibiza one too...but it is £40 cheaper and i think you only need to bung up one hole to fit the ibiza.

you sure about that?

 

[m0rk]

if it's on vortex, it must be true

Forge get them from siliconhoses.com

 

[Barry.L]

id rather go with forge. you mite save £40 but you mite get fitment issues plus it may not evn arrive (seller is in hong kong)

 

[WeeJase]

i would have gone for one had a second hand forge one not appeared.
someone go for it and see.if its good quality and arrives why the hell not?

 

[karl.w]

It is probably just as good as the forge one, but doesn't have the forge name on it. In fact it's more than likely a carbon copy of a samco tip or similar tip.

 

[gavthelad]

looks good for the price......

A friend of mine has silicon coolant pipe sets made for 205 gti's and mi16 conversions. It could be that these are even made in the same place as the forge stuff (not saying they are)

They will likley be the same quality (quality of my friends pipes is up there with samco) as forge or any other company. Good price by the looks of it.

just ordered a forge tip!

 

[gavthelad]

forge tip all the way.......... but for the price it seems good!! silicone hose is expensive at the best of times so as long as the quality is there its a good deal.

 

[ForgeMotorsport]

You gotta be kidding ALL our Forge partS are manufactured by silicon hoses.com .

Dont be fooled by the cheaper prices ...only last week we had 2 calls from customers who had these hoses call us and ask for free replacements as they had split !!!!! after only two weeks , these poor guys thought they were our hoses ...... we couldnt help them .


Remember whne you buy from e bay ..if the price seems " to good to be true " then it probably is , we are here all the time for you the customer with a life time warranty om ALL parts

They must of been dyslexic as it says the name of the company on the tip
autobahn88.
They seem to be making a fair amount of products for the quality being so bad and it won't even last more than 14 days. I wonder how they are able to stay in business

Here is a link to the companys site for anyone that is interested

[acidstrato]

hmmm who is the more trusting??

or

 

[karl.w]

and thats why we have to pay prices like this...£60.45 inc VAT
http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/content.asp?inc=product&cat=&product=FMIBTH252

instead of this (as 1exsample)...$41.62 or in GBP... £23.20

[JIMYU]

thats just wrong how the prices can be so different!!!

 

[ForgeMotorsport]

How many Ibiza are there in the USA ????none only Mexico
How many have we sold in the US ????none , by all means order from the US site and pay the shipping and import duty and vat

This part was a special small batch manufacture , thats why the cost is high.

You want one Ill give you one for free , just e mail me and it will be in the post tomorrow, that cos we look after the UK SEAT guys

Or check the zena racing or Autobahn 88 site for thier price and order from them.....oh wait there you cant cos they dont make them.

Not knocking all thier products and I didnt say it only lasted 14 days , just telling you what we found and what were faced with

 

[karl.w]

Thanks for the offer but I'm quite happy with my normal FORGE reducer and FORGE TIP.

It was just a very predictable comment from you to rubbish another product. That if it became popular could possible take business away from yourself.

 

[ForgeMotorsport]

You ve got me and Forge all wrong mate . We dont knock other peoples products or companies , Bailey valves , Jabba, Pace , all good companies with good products no complaints , we welcome the competition and hope to compete . as I said I am sure that there are many quality products on the Autbahn site , its only when there are quality issues with products that people think are made by Forge do I care and need to warn people
