wow that went really smoothly,

i was secretly expecting delays and the like..

do you know if we got the orange or the black?

cheers

Karl

if you only knew what happened my end! some strongly worded but polite phone calls from me requesting updates, confirmation of fund transfer, shipment date - etc.

i've requested the black for everyone, if we get it then bonus - if not then it'll be the 'coby orange'. it just depends if they have any paint in stock.

i have called coby directly and asked them what paints they are using. they have told me that they ARE NOT using HIGH TEMPERATURE paint. the paint is merely for rust, storage and aesthetic reasons.

i personally advise everyone to strip the paint back and go over it with caliper/high temp spray cans or get them hp coated like i have. leaving the coby paint shouldn't do any harm either.

please be patient with christmas delivery. some of you guys might be lucky and get them early, some might get them in the new year.

regardless all buyers have always received them.

I wish i had mine today i was really hoping to get them :P . i really hope now there here wednesday beofre i go out of the counrty ;) so there black thats good to hear merry christmas everybody hope all goes well for everyone

hey got mine fitted today went on sweet took away alot of the rasp i used to get about 2500rpm-3000rpm.

just want to know hwat type of setup are people running on there car mine is just stock with the extractors my stock pipe is 2.5'' so i didnt have to change that

You will all have to tell me how your extractors go guys, mine are still sweet, glad i got HPC coating, just wondering i got a hi-flow cat on my system, do you think i would be losing any power considering its a 3" cat, he just downed it to my 2.5" system i got, would i have got any power increase at all?

Also gotta get it fixed, either the muffler or cat is rattling under there like a B&$%#. Does anyone notice a sucking noise from extractors, or air noise?

Also any difference in havin a resonator or muffler on your system, he put muffler on before the cannon, but last system i got on my old car he put a resonator, sorry im a noob

Anyone thinking of starting this group buy again? I need one :) its $345 to deliver without a group buy mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....................
I'm in for sure if theres another group buy :down: , is there another group buy for these any time soon???
Yeah ill be in for another group buy?

PM me if we are starting again Eug

unfortunately there won't be another one without significant interest.

as much as i'd like to help you guys out again, i've run 4 of these buys already and each time it has been more money and effort on my part than anything. now that i'm an sauqld exec, moderator and in my final year of uni i have other obligations to fulfill.

if there are enough people to make it feasible then we shall see.

    • You sweet summer child, if only you knew the intricacies of the world of LS you would come around to the lego construction of them and truly praise the LS1, the greatest of all. This of course depends on your use case. That said, LS7 is actually down towards the bottom of the list. The amount of info on the subject puts SAU's 20 year knowledgebase on RB's and R chassis to shame.
    • We're not talking about one of those little girl LS's like yours. We're talking the big boy. LS7.
    • Fuel use with a LS is about the same as a RB. Slightly better than a modified RB with a responsive turbo. :p You'd need another excuse to not go LS (there is no excuse to not go LS)
    • I didn't know about induction heaters but checked them out and they look awesome but too pricey for the occasional job like this. And I'm too nervous to take a flame anywhere near there as the petrol tank is so close, although I was intrigued with the crayons suggestion ๐Ÿ˜ I filled a coke bottle lid with penetrating fluid and raised it on the jack so the nut was submerged in it all night. Then went in with a tiny cold chisel and got it almost to the point of splitting but not quite (I didn't want to damage the bolt threads). Then I hammered a socket back on and gently worked it until I felt movement. And it's offย ๐Ÿ˜€
    • I should. But it already uses too much fuel for a daily. You might note my recco for engine chnages are almost exclusively to people who have it as a weekender/summer car. I don't even have room to keep the spares for this one, let alone another car.
