Hey guys;

Well, winter's coming, we're all getting our cars put away and are beginning to think about upgrades for next year.

What would people be interested in doing for a group buy, and maybe we can start looking for companies to work with.

Few ideas:

Carbon Pieces
Coilover Suspensions
Brake Kits
Misc Suspension Components (Bushings etc)
Gauges (AEM or otherwise)
Turbo
Manifold
Cams
Something that is expensive that if we buy in numbers we can save a good chunk on. IMO, a group buy for <$200 part is a waste since you usually can't save much on it after including shipping/taxes etc.

What are the bulk majority looking to do this year. We can do more than one or if anyone has any ideas, lets hear them!

Some of the bigger items (like turbos) are so competetive, that there is really nothing to be saved by buying in quantity. The margins are already so slim. What you might find is that there is huge savings in SHIPPING if you buy larger quantities of larger, heavier items...

Of course, there will be the obligatory $3-5 donation built into the group buy for DSM Canada, depending on the price of the item.

I would be down for a group buy on dsmlink v3 or on a set of cams.

That's two people for Link, and I would also be down to do it again as I need it

A group buy/ship on Delta cams would be good cost savings.
When I sent my cores back it cost 30$ for shipping and the core charge was only a $60 return. A group ship/return could save a bunch.

I would be interested in a GOOD coilover setup.

Wideband o2 is about the only thing I would be in for.

I'd be in for JIC Coilovers or Kelford Cams.

me too

cams

carbon pieces

Tein coilovers

Misc Suspension Components

Koni sport(yellows) - I have a 2g but I have heard that they discontinued the rears for a 1g

I already have v2 of link and would save on the purchase of v3 with the trade in as it is but if somehow I could save more via group buy I would be in for that as well as some cams too.
Some spiffy brake kit would be hot too.

I'd be down for a car that's put together.

Ian, that only takes motivation, of which you have very little.

Cams and Widebands would be nice, injectors also.

Where can I buy this motivation you speak of?

I'd probably be in for cams, but I'd definitely be in for a clutch setup, something that can handle some power

I want the driveability of a steet disc, but something capable of taking abuse, maybe ACT 3200's or something? What are some of you guys running 10's and 11's using?

I'd be in for link, an AEM wideband, maybe some coils (depending on the company), even an AFPR...

I would also be in for link depending on the timing.

Maybe there can be a group buy for it

Silicone hose kits? I remember we did one before... I got the kit in blue, but it looks more purple so I want to switch it up to red or black.

Mike,

I have started stocking a fair bit of the silicone hose.....but don't know exactly what makes up the kits. I am thinking I might order a couple more in (one 1g and one 2g) so that I can measure and assemble our own kits......

I think Mike is talking about the Larson hose kit from RRE.

Yeah I think that's what it is called. Are those hoses fine for handling coolant?

Ziggy, this page has the lengths for 2G:

I still want a carbon hatch for my 1g.........

Rob, That is PERFECT! Now, if someone could direct me to a similar page about the 1g? Or is there by any chance anyone who bought a 1g kit and hasn't installed it yet? If I got similar measurements for the 1g, I could put together some kits fairly quickly...

Mike, good luck with that. I had a HELL of time getting 2g hatches, and there was LOTS of interest expressed....but when it came right down to it, only three guys from Quebec actually bought.....I still have a few in stock...

V3 !
I already have my eprom...
but depends, still need to save for next semester of school and a winter beater...

How about tuner nation rear subframe and moustache bushings for a 1g?

Ziggy I still have mine from the group buy sitting in my basement, you can borrow it.

1g Jay racing rear toe eliminator's
or 1g adjustable rear control arms

I would be in for Cams..Clutch....Nice swaybar kit,as mine are sh!t....

+1 for ECMlink v3!

So, why don't we do 3 group buys

1: ECMLink V3 (Upgrade or new)
2: Kelford Cams
3: ???

Thoughts?

+1 for the upgrade to Link V3 (as well as the hose kit )

Kiggly goodies Ryan. #3

Cam gears, injectors, Jay Racing Alt Relocation (for Saturn alt), FMIC kit.

Those are the major things I'd be in for.

Meth kit!

+1 upgrade to v3
