im going to talk to ryan at umi and see if we can set up a GP on not only SFC's but any of there 3rd gen related parts, im just wondernig how much interest there would be before i try and set another one up, i plan on odering the following:

tubular non adjustable LCA's
tubular adjustable LCA's
tubular non adjustable panhard bars
tubular adjustable panhard bars
2 sets of SFC's
1 Tubular non adjustable torque arm
LCA relocation brackets

id like to get this set up for sometime in the new year so let me know ASAP guys

 

I might be up for the a panhard bar and LCAs, maybe the LCA relocation brackets.

We should do it right after Xmas, I know some of us will get some cash in our stockings.

 

after xmas i might be in for some subframe con. pinding on prise of course.

 

I will take the subframe connectors.

 

I could be in for some LCA'S, Brackets, and a Panhard Bar. Price Pending of course.

 

Count me in

 

ok, so i talked to ryan at UMI, he said that setting up a GP would be no problem, sometimes towards the end of jauary, we need atleast 20 people and that would get us 15% off all f body related items, i need dedicated people not soe who will back out at the last moment, let me know guys

 

Count me on the list.
I was gonna buy their subframes sooner or later anyways.

 

i will take one set of subframes and one steering brace (wonderbar)

 

check this out> https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/afte...onnectors.html
nothing but good things about them here.

 

Im down for a set of Subframe connectors for Convertible.

 

already have a set of umi on the 91 just picked up a 92 so i know that they are good and fit great

 

I'm in for some LCA's mabey sfc's if a good price

 

Im in for some LCA's. Thinking about SFC, still researching the whole boxed vs. tubular thing

 

go boxed, i read an article somewhere, and the boxed supposedly flex less, and at 170$ for a set of UMI's from the GP, you cant go wrong

 

If you are going in a straight line (ie drag racing) boxed is good. If you turn the steering wheel (ie autocross/road racing) go with the tubular. If you use the car for a daily driver, go with a tubular that has a rod end on one side and a poly bushing on the other. Rods ends on both sides are usually to harsh of a ride for a daily driver.



As for the GP, I was think about getting a Torque Arm before the end of the year (since everything is 10% off until then), but if it looks like there is enough for a GP I will wait until January for the 15%!

 

yeah we havnt had a problem before, i think 20 should be an easy number to reach along as we have enough dedicated people

 

I would like to get some LCA relocation brackets, and SFC's, and maybe a STB. But definitely a SFC. PM when we are ready to order and give me the info.

 

Put me on the list.

 

OK! so we still need more people this is the list so far, only 14 people are in, i would like to set this up for january so im going to spread this thread around and get some more people in on it, we only need 20 for the 15%, but i would to see 30 if possible

Would the 15% off be in addition of the current 10% off deal? (for a total of 25% off?)

Also,what would be the shipping cost? Currently I can get the SFCs on eBay from UMI for $219.50 shipped ($180+$39.50s/h). At $170 each for the SFC through the group purchase, the shipping would have to be less than $49.50 to beat that.

 

i cant see why it would be different? the 15% would not be on top of the 10%, 10% sale is over at end of december i believe

 

I'm interested as well.
- Subframe connectors
- rear LCA / panhard combo
..... and growing

 

I'm in for one black front steering brace.

 

Please count me in for LCA's and nonadjutable panhard bar for sure. Thanks

 

im in for the sfc, if they clear my true dual pipes....where do they mount?

 

Put me down for SFC'S. Just bought another IROC-Z. 1986 with 22000 miles on it. It is pristine. Badman

 

Tentatively in for SFC's & wonderbar. Is there a dollar amount at which we could get a better discount? It might be worthwhile for both UMI and us to ask them about that, "the best price ever" will draw more people in. I hosted an Accel (SR's, intakes, etc) GP a few years ago that resulted in the largest single order ever placed with them, this forum can generate huge sales if the prices are right.

 

I'd be up for a set of SFC's if the price was right. Not too sure 15% is that great...

 

Delete

 

Im in for there control arm and panhard kit

#201621 1982-02 GM F-Body Single Adjustable Lower Control Arms and Panhard Bar Kit

 

so the list stands at about 22 now, il talk to ryan and see if we can set this up for the month of january

 

Do yo uneed 20-30 people to buy the same thing to get this GP deal or can it just be 30 people buying at least something from them? I want the wonderbar and possibly the relocation brackets if I cant get the welded ones off my 4th gen rear w/o mutulating them.

 

how do i get in on this? like how would i buy products and what not?

 

it can be 20-30 buying anything

toxik IROC:
once its setup, you will go to www.UMIPerformance.com, and purchase like normal, and enter a coupon code that will give you 15% off

 

sweet! when will this be goin down im gona be outa the contry from the 1st-16} so i wonlt be able to do anything car related in that time but i deffenetly want in

 

Only thing that I'm not sure about is that the 15% does not seem like enough of a discount to warrant waiting another month for the group purchase rather than making the purchases now through eBay. Why? Because shipping is more expensive when you buy from them through their website than when you buy through their eBay auctions. For example:

The Subframe connectors:
UMIPerformance.com price: $179.99 --- Shipping cost: $62.34
UMIPerformance.com Total: $242.33

eBay UMIPerformance price: $179.99 --- Shipping cost: $39.50
eBay UMIPerformance Total: $219.49

Price Difference with Shipping included: $22.84

$169.99 (15% off Price) with $62.34 shipping cost: $232.33
The group purchase price would still be $12.83 higher than the current price from UMI through eBay.

UMIPerformance would need to have a 21.4% Off Sale at their site or this group purchase to match the prices available right now from them through eBay.

Thats why I previously asked if the 15% would be in addition to the 10% for a total of 25%.


I'm still in for the wonderbar anyway.

Note: The shipping prices I mentioned above are to my location in Southern California. If you live closer to UMI's headquarters, your shipping will be less, but the eBay shipping will probably be lower than the UMI site anyway.

 

i cant see why they would charge more for shipping throught their site, i got a quote on shipping a let of LCA's, panhard bar and SfC and it was like 71.50 USD

 

Well I would like to see something to be done/asked about shipping if that is the going rate for them on e-bay.

 

if your interested in asking, go right ahead, ryan@umiperformance.com

 

If I was the 20th person, then I wouldn't throw my hat into the ring cause I'll tell you up front I don't know what "extra" cash I'll have in a few weeks....

....but since you DO have over 20, I'd be interested. I'll check back in a couple of weeks to see what's up!

 

Just bought the LCA ,Panhard bar and relocation brackets nice stuff . Sign me up for the SFC's

Hmm I was looking into this more and I see that the online store prices are 9% cheaper then the website All well 15% is still better then 9% on already affortable product.

 

yeah, 15% is better than nothing guys!

 

is it goin be the whole moth of jan for the gp? or wat? like i stated b4 i wont be in the 1st two weeks of the month

 

I'm in for a set of SFC's.

 

it will most likely be set up for a 2 week period in which TGO member will be able to submit there orders, and im goingt o try and set it up so the deadline is for jan 31/07

 

that would be an awsome deadline!
