i just got a email back from AM performance last night

Hi Bryce

I just like to let you know I'm running behind as we have small problem with Aluminum plate.I had to return two of them to supplier as they was scratches on them.So I hope I will get nice piece tomorrow and will cut them. Please let people know that there will be a slight delay but nothing major, when the plates arrive (fingers crossed for tomorrow) ill give you a ETA on how long they should take. the designs are made and ready to cut - just need the plates.

talk soon

Andrew

yeh i too would like to know, i tried to get in on the last one but was too busy to get the funds in on time :laugh: , i believe you still have my order saved?

any one got theres yet as im still waiting

im still waiting aswell, i think he posted all the polished ones on friday.. here is the last email i got from him (weds the 11th of sept)

Hi

Tomorrow I will send covers in mirror finish except this one with Allure sign on it as this one is not good.It did not come up as should be and is not good enough.When I bend it along the edges the letters fold down as well as there was not enough material to support it.If it will go for powder coating you will not notice that but it should be in mirror finis and will not be good at least for me.All the others has been send for powder coating and as soon they finish I will let you know.This with allure on it will be cut tomorrow and still will go by the weekend

Please be a bit patient and hope every body will be happy after all

Andrew

so yeah, sorry that it has taken longer than expected guys but it seems like Andrew at AM Performance ran into some troubles wtih the materials etc. they should all be sent and arrive this week :)

dam i want one...whens the next gb gonna happen?

ill probably arrange another gb late this month/early next month, but i want to make sure that things will run smoother next time around so there wont be these extended delays we got this time..

yeh i too would like to know, i tried to get in on the last one but was too busy to get the funds in on time :) , i believe you still have my order saved?

yeah mate i still have all your details for the order :) sorry that you couldnt get in this time around :D i just want to be clear that i cant extend the group buys or it would just be a never ending thing and no one would ever get anywhere! i mainly do this because i was in a group buy about 2 years ago and it was just extention after extention, it took 6 months to get something that was promised in 1! having a deadline is just fairest i think :) but there will be another group buy thats for sure, iv had lots of PM's so ill get you in for the second round no worries :)

so sit tight! this week should be the week for the packages to arrive :-) sorry once again to all the buyers for these delays, its been out of my controll but these things happen unfortunantly

Hi Bryce

Mirror finish cover they will get sometime this week as they all ready send.It was for

Natasha Stein

Mick Ilovski

PSI Parts

Auto Indulgence

I'm still waiting for powder coating covers and can not do to much.they should be ready maybe end of this week.

I'm sorry for delay and I hope every body will be happy after all.

Please apologize those people from me and tell them not to worry they will get they covers very soon.

Thanks

Andrew

also currently having chats about a second group buy

awesome :banana: great to hear that they are finally arriving :(

hows the finish quality? glad to hear that your happy :nyaanyaa:

turned out very good, the finish is excellent, im very happy with it.. the only thing was, i couldnt get it to sit flat in between the tappet covers, i didnt want to bend it inwards, but i worked out if u try and centre it so it leans evenly on each tappet cover(about 5mm from the base) you can screw it in.. im going to try and get some better quality pics up as soon as i can..

Cheers Brycey!

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
