    Default Buschur Racing, Innovators not Imitators, the battery tray video.

    In response to another thread on EVOm is our video we slapped together this morning.

    I think at times the level of ignorance is beyond belief, I've been in this business too long and my level of patience has never been very good.

    In this thead on EVOM some douche has put together a comparison thread of our very first battery trays and our current battery tray to compare to nisei's billet unit. As with most douche bags, he doesn't even produce the part, just sells them out of his mom's bedroom. He has no clue to the history and I'm guessing never even bolted a kit in an EVO. I'm not even sure he has seen an actual EVO outside of Xbox.

    A few points. First off, Buschur Racing was the company who came up with the small battery idea for the EVO's to fit intercooler plumbing in without 30 bends in it and to take weight off. We were told nobody would buy these kits but obviously that was incorrect because everyone has copied the idea at this point in time. The first tray I built was overly simple, a basic tray with long bolts and wing nuts to hold the battery. It fit, it held the battery and it made room. It wasn't the highest tech component or the prettiest but it served it's purpose. Not very long after that part was made I realized how over simple it was and built our new kit. We reversed the mounting points (which our competitors haven't been smart enought to copy yet) built the new ones to hold the battery even more securely and designed it so the CDI boxes could be mounted to it or catch cans etc. Changing the kit to its current configuration also allowed the batteriers to be turned around and the negative cable to be routed behind the battery. This makes the entire kit and factory wiring harness fit better. The copy cats out there still have you stretching the positive cable very tight across the battery to the front post.

    In the pictures this douche bag posted he shows mis-alignment, holes that are "too large" and how the tray doesn't fit flat on his desk. Let me address these. First off, nothign is mis-aligned, you will see that in the video, the kit falls together it's so well aligned. The extra room in the bolt holes and slot for the top strap are designed so it goes together easy. The tray not sitting flat on his desk...........well if you want to mount this kit to your desk let me know and I'll address it. When you mount it in the car though that bolt head doesn't touch anything, showing further he is a fucking idiot.

    Here is the little video we put together.

    Why the hell is the thread closed on EvoM?
    I was about to post pics of the tray I did for the Bad Bish.

    It's a great piece, had absolutely no "flash" or any other flaws.

    From EvoM
    WestSideBilly closes the thread and says
    Point made, thread closed. I'd leave it open except for the repeated derogatory comments in the video.

    I'm not sure why you haven't learned this yet Dave, but not everybody buys things for the same reason. A racer will see your design and think "oh, that'll work good". A show&shiner will see your design and think "what an ugly POS". Two viewpoints, two markets, two products. Not everyone is out to screw you; benchmarking is standard business practices.
    So your thread was closed because you made derogatory comments. Yet the mod can freely make derogatory comments about your product.
    Pot meet kettle.

    I started a stand alone thread over on evom and it got locked by non-other than westsidebilly, no surprise there.

    The basics of the thread are correct, our first tray was certainly not stellar but using it for a comparison when we haven't built that in about 5 years or more is kind of pointless. Our current tray, he is full of shit on, it fits like a glove (and not OJ's glove), there is no mis-alignment problems. It's funny to see this ass hat who started the thread and noosei once again use my product to compare theirs to. Didn't they do this a few years ago with an intercooler test? Are they trying to make a come back from not selling FMIC's? The new BIG market is no battery trays? Give me a break, copy, copy, copy. No new ideas, no new products, just see what everyone else is doing and do the same thing different.

    Part of the reason there is a battery kit built in the first place was we wanted to drop some weight. I'm fairly certain 5 pounds of billet isn't needed to hold the battery securely in place.

    What a stupid ass. If he wanted to pimp his products, why not just pimp the product? Most of us want a product that works and works well. If you want something to win you shiny internet awards, be my guest and buy the other guys.

    I can see advertising your product because it's "prettier" (you take an idea and improve upon it) but why make up all kinds of BS to shun your competition? I guess the answer to that is, 'because people are dumb enough to believe it'.

    What's funny is I've gotten quite a few compliments on the BR (new style) battery kit I have installed on my car. It's simple, looks good and does its job. ...and I didn't even cut my fingers on the metal edges.

    What's next? Nesei catch cans!?

    Speaking of, I was checking yours out Dave and I liked how you have it drain into the diptube. This way you never have to empty it and you get another vent for crank case pressure.

    Can you make me a "prettier" one though?
