lsd, gear sets, trd, cusco, etc etc = all expensieve...
they also have another thing in common, they are all used in racing and they all work! so the price is well worth the out lay...and wei is good to deal with so its win win!
i will look into other gear sets...

Hi guys,
Hows the head count? how many people do we have seriously interested and funds to purchase an LSD?
I have just been in touch with contacts in Japan and have advised me that Cusco Type-RS LSD and I am probably assuming the MS ones as well are not available until 10 December. TRD ones are available.
So thes gives us some time for those who would like to purchase one to get their funds together.
If we can get the numbers and funds together, maybe be able to put order through and get them despatch at 10 December or later while Cusco Stocks last.
Thanks
Wei

If your keen on TRD, then i think we got atleast 5 parties.
As for LSD oil, there are many brands locally available. As from my experience, I used Redline lightweight shockproof on my S15 b4 and that really made a difference.
I have not looked into any type of Japanese brand oil at this point.

Put me down for a Cusco MZ 2 way to fit Zenki. But as said above, I won't be able to give you full payment until say a month.
If thats cool I'll be in on the group buy.

I can get hold of KazZ Lsd but from what i have been told, they are very noisy and not as durable.
I am currently offering the cuscos and the TRDs in the group by and I think that there is enough variety there already.
Ueo uses Cusco type-RS so i suppose there is a reason y he uses that lsd for his ae86. Must be good i suppose.

Well let me know when the group buy is likely to happen (it almost sounds like most people aren't going to be ready for another month or so? Or are there 4 other people who are happy to buy now?) and I'll go from there...

Like DEmuire says,
For those parties interested have to decide when you want to go ahead with the group buy. Maybe set a date to get it together.

D1 drivers uses all good stuff as they are sponsored.. and even if they are not sponsored..they buy the best stuff and claim under business tax (smart options to buy under business).. that's why they can afford nice cars and goodies..
i'm down for the group buy in a month's time too.. so i hope everyone is fine with it..after christmas would be good for me..
how about 27th december (monday) or 3rd January (Monday)...??
since everyones gonna be busy during New Year...i opt for 3rd January...
what say u?

Depending on how money goes I'm actually thinking of getting the 4.77's from Palmside NZ (approx $500ish). From calculations it looks to be too low for a stock T50 gearbox, but after seeing another car running it go yesterday, while not ideal, it looks to be a shiteload better than the 4.1's I have now...
Then when I win a lottery I can get the close ratio gears from Palmside too

4.1 pickup too slow. My flying laps were comparable to the top cars in my class, my standing laps were a fair bit slower...
Fuel economy? My car isn't a daily driver

I know what we can do
How about (because of the large amount of money required to purchase an LSD and the fact that everyone is saying they want one but don't have enough money yet), we pay a deposit (equal or a little more than $170... say $200? This is just over 15% deposit) for an LSD for now?
That way, Wei can go away and order these LSD's from Japan and get the group buy price etc and have them sent to Australia, and when we get enough money we can pay the rest off and Wei can send the LSD to us.
How does this benefit us?
For Wei: Pretty much guaranteed sale. If the sale falls through, Wei can still sell the LSD's at the usual price (non-group buy) and not be out of pocket. I'm certain AE86 LSD's will sell for a long time to come.
For us buyers: We can secure the LSD now, at the prices they are now (esp since the Oz dollar is quite strong), at a group buy price, and pay when we have enough money. Delivery time may be quicker, as the LSD only has to come from Wei, and not from Japan.
The only catch? Initial outlay for Wei to order all the items from Japan.
Any thoughts? I'd be happy to do this as soon as today
*edit* I think

Wei - I think that sounds fair to me I know what its like having people back out of a sale and being left with stock.
I can deposit the cash over the next couple of days if we are going ahead with the purchase this way.
Anyone else willing to do a 50% deposit???
