Has anyone had issues with Proflow?


Recommended Posts

Just wondering if anyone has had issues with Proflow parts or Proflow themselves. So i bought a new Proflow fuel rail, to find the inside edges where burred and had metal shavings on the inside. After non stop ringing and emails for a month, today i finally received an email. Saying to just clean it up with a flat blade screwdriver!!!! Really isn't this why we dont buy cheap Chinese stuff. Anyway Im not bagging Proflow at all, I just wanted to know if this was just a case of 1 in a million. Thanks for reading, please leave a response if you have dealt with Proflow whether its bad or good

Don't think that's acceptable man seems pretty poor on there behalf, I've used them a couple of times and it's kinda hit and miss, sometimes the guys can't help you at all so you've just gotta know exactly what you need.

went in there one time had a guy spending ages trying to find the right fitting for me, said we needed to use some adapter and all up was going to be like $80 for a right hand bend fitting from like dash 5 to dash 6 the other side, I went to a place called "Enzed" and they had exactly what I needed for $10... and it had a psi rating too (Enzed is a hydraulic hose fitting specialist) I usually go there first before Proflow now.

So not the case of 1 in a million. Pretty annoying after i have just spent $2000 on Proflow fuel system. Prefer to buy Australian made products. Money wasn't the issue. Keep the comments coming please. Thanks everyone

Quality control issues and customer service issues, you can only really notify the company directors, if they are intending to operate their business successfully they will follow-up on your complaint, they need to be informed before they can do anything.  A company search and a couple of registered letters with photographs, will put the ball in their court.

...otherwise take your problem to youtube, and social media like Ravi suggested.

Well finally I got my fuel rail replaced from Proflow. Guess what this rail is as bad as the first one. Cant believe it. When I spoke to the person from Proflow on the phone, who was organising the replacement rail, he said he checked the new fuel rail. He said in these words. The new fuel rail isn't perfect but it sounds better than the one I have. Was i speaking to the guy from the scratch and dent section of Proflow

    • I can believe it if you're getting air into the pickup. Cavitation is tremendously destructive for pumps.
    • I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low
    • sadly, pics no work. that car must have spent a lot of time in a cryo bubble
    • In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.  
    • Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info
