Hi All,

Thought I'd offer this through as a group buy option so see if anyone else is interested in a set of these.

These will fit V-Spec and V-Spec IIs and replace the factory, rusty ones that are present on our cars. They don't come painted, though I don't think it'd be difficult to do locally.

These are on offer from Anday @ RB Motorsport in the UK, the only people I've been able to find who have this type of kit.

Original Cost: £305 + shipping (which is quoted £120 for shipping) which is ~$900 AUD.

Group Buy Discount: 15% and cheaper shipping due to bulk (and possible GST hit depending on how many are ordered). We need a minimum or 3 to get the group buy.

Group buy price for 3 including shipping to my location in Sydney, NSW (so may be additional cost to ship within Australia) is £333 (approx $570 AUD) plus any import duty/taxes/etc.

Package Info from Andy:

One of the brackets is 1.1m long and the whole package weighs 3.7 kg.

We would require around 8 for sea shipping to be cheaper (I think).

FYI - the group buy price is around what i paid delivered to AUS via EMS last year - when the AUS dollar was much better.

It's a good bit of gear - fitted well. However, it takes a bit of work with a cordless drill to remove all the rivets from the old brackets. RB supply new stainless rivets in their kit - but i recommend using stainless bolts instead - much easier to remove later :-) for any reason.

Bit of an update on the fittings from Andy:

Set screws

16 No M6 x 20 stainless steel bolt and washer

8 No M8 x 30 stainless steel bolt and washer

4 No M8 x 20 stainless steel bolt and washer

‘pop’ rivets

13 No 4.5mm large head rivet and repair washer

26 No 3.5mm large head rivet and repair washer

Might not be, was mentioned we needed 3 to have the discount.

If no one else by the weekend I'll contact RB again and see if anything can be done for two and be done with the GB.

A quick message,

I've emailed a few days ago on costs for two sets - will PM you reply when I recieve it and can take things from there (unless some 3rd person suddenly comes in screaming...now)

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
