I was just wondering, the old price used to be $486/pair with the SAU discount... is there no SAU discount anymore (ie. group buy finished?)

As far as the PM I got from Matt, all the other prices are still the same. Only the prices for the shocks have changed - I think he mentioned that they're now the same rates as R32 GTR, as they ride better.

Bump for SK or Matt.

Please update us on pricing, for the benefit of all!

Thanks

I'd also like to know if this group buy is still available and is pricing on all the parts the same as the original post?

The original Bilstein shock that was used in the front of the Stagea kits was discontinued not long after I started the Group Buy. So we have been using the Bilstein R32GTR front shock as a base, which actually gives a slightly better result. The downside is they cost $50 more each. I had Bilstein absorb the price increase ($100) for as long as possible to keep the Group Buy prices the same. But all of the suppliers have had multiple price increases since the Group Buy was established over 2 years ago and I can't hold them any more. For the moment the only change is the extra $100 on the front shocks, but there will be an all over price increase of around 5% very shortly. So get in now if you want to avoid it.

A quick reminder, some time ago I did negotiate a price reduction of around $90 in the front camber kit, so the change in the total kit price over all this time is around $10.

For exact pricing on your specific needs, a PM is the best method.

Gary,

When installing the whiteline rear springs - i had to go to the third highest circplip groove on the strut before the spring would even touch the top hat. Is this normal? ie I had to go to the second highest circlip groove to get a better height.

Adrian

Yes, quite normal, I run mine in the top circlip groove.

:( cheers :)

doesnt that mean the shock is too long for the spring?? back when i had my ute i had to get shorter shocks for my lowered springs to keep them held in place. i know having the shock that long wont damage anything, but its more a roadworthy issue. my mate got done by the transport office for havin springs that werent held in place properly.

Hi SK,

Payment sent. I tried to PM you but it was full.

Any chance of an ETA?

Cheers.

I cleared a bit of space today in the PM inbox after being away for the weekend, first weekend off in 6 months.

Cheers

Hi Sk,

I wasn't too concerned about your mailbox being full. I'd think you'd have to have one of the highest contact ratios of any of the members...

But still no luck, your mailbox has been full since your post... :woot:

Just wanted to make sure you'd received my payment for the suspension (see below) and see if there's an ETA for delivery (I haven't heard anything yet)?

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
