Just received an email from Jesse. Cost for me around $510 by air give or take exchange rate, thats going it solo. I'm the 8th person so if 12 is the magic number then there is a way to go based on this thread. In any case I'm down with this.

My questions being answered may help getting me in -.-

Kolossus, sorry but I can't answer your question about whether anyone wants to pair with you in Qld...however, the cost without pairing is approximately $510 (air freight).

In terms of payment, we first need to get all 12 orders in with Jesse. Once this is done, Jesse will finalise the quote and respond to us requesting for payment for just the headlights. Once we all have made payment to Jesse (and noting that this may take some time), Jesse will then proceed to order the headlights from the supplier.

So to answer your question on how soon payment needs to be made, this really depends on how soon we hit the 12 orders mark.

Hope this clarifies things.

Cheers,

Keith

Just received an email from Jesse. Cost for me around $510 by air give or take exchange rate, thats going it solo. I'm the 8th person so if 12 is the magic number then there is a way to go based on this thread. In any case I'm down with this.

You are the 8th person to have contacted Jesse but since 4 people are pairing up, there may already be 12 orders (i.e.4 out of the 8 pax have ordered 2 sets).

Ok..latest update from Jesse below:

"numbers are getting there but now need to go through and find out what

people want as I found a few guys dont want coupe lights they want

sedan lights which are a different price."

I'm not sure how many of the 12 orders are for sedan lights. Looks like we are not quite there yet. Hang it there guys.:/

You know as much as anyone else from the info in this thread.

No, it would seem no-one is interested/available to pair with you. As I explained previously, if you don't have a pairing, email Jesse directly, let him know what you want and where you are located, and he will give you a quote. So far we have only seen a slight increase in price for singles - around $20-$30 more. So in a product where you are saving $120 or so, it is still a great deal. Jesse did say too, that the sedan lights are cheaper.

Payment is due in the next few days, assuming we get the final numbers responded to Jesse and it is all sorted.

Can each pair make sure that one person transfers the $$ to the other, as when we get the final go-ahead one of each pair is to transfer the $$ to Jesse (obviously non-paired people just transfer their own $$). I already have the $500 from Heretical, so our pair is ready to go.

Npz mate. Like I said - ANYONE that wants in on this group buy needs to email Jesse (or if you are in a pair, the 'dominant' member can email him), and we will get the ball rolling.

I feel like such a bitch now...

OK Jesse emailed me back as follows (I have taken the last bit of each email address off so we don't get spammed. Can everyone have a quick look over this list and make sure it is 100% correct?

Ive got (have checked twice but possibly have missed someone, have been searching on v35 so if someone didnt list that in their email I might have missed them)

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
