what exactly did u order......if it is considered to orders ill let ultimate know

and just to let everyone know. mine and a few other earli birds covers are already finshed and ready for pickup. but that wont be possible until we get 20 payers.

well, i had a look back (refer to post 132 and 141)

i was refering to GTST_SEDAN and GTR.2NV 's order respectively. They have ordered separately but paid together. So its considered two orders for them.

Technically we have 17 paid

Edited by theevilworld

i talked to ultimate he said like 7-8 sets of covers are finished....so that means a good half of us would have our covers if everyone paid.

so we really gotta hurry and get those other 3 ppl

GTS-T i thought they counted your order as 2..

my idiot mates who were supposed to pay still havent... i have been pressuring them into paying for weeks...one is gonna pay soon and the other is thinking about it...

i also have another mate who is interested in two sets but hasnt decided yet...

cmon guys we need a few more and then everyone will be happy...

anDru, if i was you, and I lived in Melbourne, i would pop down to Ultimate and talk to the guys direct.

You could sweet talk em into giving you the covers if they are just sitting there, or offer them a few extra bob.

Defeats the purpose of the group buy if you have to pay extra, but then again its rediculus and against the rules that a group buy has no end date and goes on for months and months and months and months.

well if i can find someon to buy set.. then i will order a set for me new car.. so then we will be one order closer so yer if guys know of anyone that may be keen on a set pm me as i have them for sale cheaper then the gb price

im gonna pop in tm to have a talk with em to see what i can do, ill keep u guys posted

does anyone wanna join me.....maybe make it look like a protest

At the end of the day, ultimate are going to get 20 orders, whether it be this week or this month. There's enough interest out there for this group buy to be completed.

I was happy to wait with the knowledge that my seat covers hadn't been made. However, if my covers are completed, then I think it is unfair for ultimate to withhold delivering them because of some "group buy" contract. They would be better off cutting their losses (if there even is any) at 17 and finding three other customers to pay the full amount. If it was to go to court or small claims (god forbid) then it would be Ultimate that would come out of it with a mark against their name, not the paying customer.

It would be really nice to have something to show for the 500 odd dollars I spent more than 3 months ago.

I also doubt that this thread is doing any favours convincing people that they should buy a set of covers.

i just spoke to ultimate.

the covers are NOT finished yet but close to finishing, so andru i dunno how you got that info..

secondly they are not happy about the fact that its taking so long to get 20 either. I am gonna call my friends and see if i can go and get them to pay.

as soon as all the covers are finished i will let you all know, meanwhile if you guys can find 3 more people it would be great.

i didnt say all the covers were finished. but a few sets are......and he also told me if we can get all 20 to pay by the end of this week he can finish all 17 by next week and the other 3 in another 3 weeks.

anyone else having any luck getting people to join?

i think i got through to 2 of my mates, but u know its a lil hard when u tell them its a few hundred bux (even though thats cheap) on the spot.

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
