 EOI: Group buy on SuperPro bushings for xA6x Celicas and Supras

The possibility of a group buy of suspension bushings was discussed in this thread:
http://forums.toymods.org.au/index.php?t=msg&t h=71145&rid=405&S=b33de4068052bcd58573edc2 a389caae
Well, I've been in contact with Superpro/Fulcrum, and they offer the following car-club prices on the following xA6x bushings (This is the list of all the part numbers in their catalog for xA6x Celicas and xA6 Supras; I'm assuming anything listed for the Supra rear also suits IRS Celicas though I suppose the swaybar could be different):
| Quote: |

Front Strut Bar To Chassis Mount SPF0307K $29.90 4B
Front Sway Bar Link Bush Kit SPF0903K $16.31 8B
Front Sway Bar Mount To Chassis Bush SPF1450-_ _K $12.91 Measure bar dia 12-30mm available 2B

All prices include Gst. Does not include fitting. There is no limit to quantity.

For more info, visit the catalog here:

I am happy to organise this for fellow xA6x owners, though as I'm in TAS, it may be more feasable to have bulk order of bushings distributed via a toymodder who can collect them in person in QLD, rather than have the extra freight cost absorbed by everyone. But as I said, I don't mind.
EOI at this stage because I've asked for permission but are yet to recieve a reply (there is no perosnal gained involved, just wanted to give soemthing back to toymods & help leverage some good prices on bushings for us.)
So - anyone interested?

Rear Control Arm - Inner Bush SPF1213K $66.02 [IRS]
Be careful of this one. when i got mine they where the wrong size by a few mm. they are still fixing this last time i got in contact with them. But this might have just been a once off with the kits that we got.

No, you need an inner and outer rear lower control arm bush, and only the inner one is listed. The trailing arm ones are for the live axle.

I was going to limit this to xA6x only, purely so that it didn't get out of hand and I wasn't personally responsable for dealing with a large amount of other people's money - otherwise I'd make it available to all toys. I'd like to help out though - I guess I'll see how much more interest there is.
For pics/install guide of the subframe bushes (and Energy Suspension swingarm bushes), see here:
http://suprawes.sitesled.com/webs/supra/suspension /rearbush/rearbushings.htm
What are the benefits or replacing these - less rear-end slop under high power apps?
If anyone has questions regarding particular bushes etc, post away & I'll pass them on.

I'm not so sure about this - the part name is "Control arm - inner bush", but in the catalog this is listed as 1 kit required to do both sides, and consists of 8 bushes, 4 tubes - so this sounds like it must be both. In fact, all of the xA6x part numbers are listed as 1 kit does both sides of a vehicle.
I'll update the 1st post sometime to show contents of each kit.

Updated list with catalog details in bold, and own notes within square brackets. All bushings are listed as one kit per vehicle. Not sure why the rear solid axcel bushings were listed twice in catalog; probably typo.

IIRC The SuperPro catalog I linked to in the first post has a bunch of universal swaybar bushes at the back of it with measurements.

MODERATED
A particular forum member has acted as a commercial seller within this thread, and in doing so broken the forum rules and ruined this thread for the rest of you. They know who they are, and will be dealt with accordingly as this is by far not the first time they have broken the forum rules regarding commercial selling.
I have split off and deleted the offending posts, and locked this thread - leaving the information available for people to review and sort things out for themselves or to organise a new group buy.... possibly even with one of our club sponsors or forum sponsors (if possible).
Please take note: COMMERCIAL SALES ARE NOT PERMITTED. Only paying forum sponsors may post commercial sales or sell items commercially on these forums.
I'm sorry to all who have been affected by this through no fault of their own.
