while you make a very valid point, but there are just some parts that dont make sense to purchase from vendors who are charging to much for it
in my case, i was looking for a FMIC kit for my GST eclipse and i could have bought a blitz kit for 1k brand new, or i could have bought an ebay kit for $300 brand new and it is essentially the same product but for a fraction of the cost
imo, its all about being a smart consumer and researching products before buying them, and knowing what you are getting into when you are taking the cheaper route
but again thats just my 
@OP
if you want cheap heads, buy these
AMS 370Z STAINLESS STEEL HEADERS - Intake / Exhaust - 370Z / G37
they are on sale right now and they are priced the same as OBX heads |
It may look the same at first glance on the outside, but unless you thoroughly examine both parts, you can't make that determination.
Here's an example of an eBay core vs. a more reputable company.
eBay
name brand
That's not to say that the eBay one is ineffective at doing it's job. For $300, it's a great deal over not having an intercooler at all, but it's not fair to say they are the same.
