hey, how about we try to get a group of people together and try to make a group purchase of some sub-frame connectors?

from what i have read i think i am most interested in spohn's.....
we caon look else where too see waht deals we can find...

i would be more than happy to organise this but im in colege going into finals week right now, so if if its up to me to organise then it will be a week and a half at least... probably until my first summer paycheck...

but i wanted to get this started to see if there is interest....
thanks alot,
tj

 

Two here..

bUT IM TOO LAZY TO ORGANIZE NE-THING

 

usally sphon doesn't do GP's due to the fact that he is so so busy all of the time. i asked him last summer and he said he just couldn't do it. just thought I'd let ya know

Josh

 

well if there is one i would be intrested... but i cant ordinize it right now either.. my wedding is june 29th adn my closing on my house is june 10th.. wahoo 2.5 car garage here i come.

 

If there turns out to be one, Id buy in. Check Jegs and Summit, I think they also sell their own brand of SFCs. As long as they work, Im happy.

 

spohn price for SFC isnt that bad now, just order them plain steel and save time from griding PC at the weld spots, and money from not having them powder coated.

 

well it loks like theres a little interest, but ive been reading more, and hte more i think about it i wonder why i don't look into the possibility of making my own....just a few measurements and calculations, hey im gonna be a mechanical engineer in two years, i shoudl be able to mannage this....simple beam bending....
tj

 

i'd be interested also

 

i've got the cash now, was planning to buy some in the next week or two, email me if it's a go for a spohn set only!

thanks!

 

I would be interested in organizing it. Just let me know who is interested and what kind or company you guys want to use and I'll make the calls or whatever. I work during the day but my job is kinda boring. Plus my boss doesn't care what I do.

Let me know.

I may get in if they are spohn

 

Including myself, I now have 4 people interested in this group purchase. I will give it a little more time and if i don't get at least 2 or 3 more, then i just don't think it will be worth it. I will wait probably till the weekend and if no one else joins in then I will call and see what they say. Is this ok with everyone?

 

I just lied to you. Including myself, I know have 8 people. I missed a couple of people. If I can get 2 more people to join in, then I will call tomorrow, or whenever i get an even 10. I will email the people that I have listed to make sure you still want in on this.

 

i'm still down for a spohn set, i need some LCA's and a panhard bar too from him, so hopefully he can hook us up!

 

Ok, you are on my list. I will let you know when i'm going to call.

 

count me in too

 

Am I on the list??? depending on when this happens i might have more than one person

 

I will have to check my list when I get home. I'm at work now and I don't have it with me. When would this need to happen in order for you to have the other people?

 

ill asume since i replyed earlier im on the list, but as far as manufactor goes .... anything with with work with my edelbrock TES headers and # inch exhaust..

 

i hope its not too late but im in for some as well. Just let me know whats happening.

 

ok, i'll add you and you're not too late

 

Count me in.........

 

Ok guys,
I emailed Steve yesterday and asked him about the group purchase and this is what he said:
"Mike,

I appreciate you guys wanting to do a GP with us, but right now is
our busiest time of year. We've been working 7 days a week to keep caught up, a GP right now just isn't possible. Hope you understand.
Thanks.

Steve"


So I emailed him back this morning and asked him if it would be possible at a later date this year, like maybe in a couple of months. I will be awaiting his reply for that. I hope some if not all of you guys can wait it out.

 

If it means saving some money then I'll wait. I'm in college so every penny matters

 

I just got another email from Steve and he said the he's not sure, it depends on how his business is doing later on. Obviously. So I told him that I would try again towards the end of the summer when things slow down a little bit. I hope you guys can wait, I have a feeling it would be a good deal.

 

i have no problem with wating... im in now hurry

 

If it's later into this summer then I'm definately interested. You can add me to your list, and let's hope they'll let us do this and save some cash too.

Thanks,
Scott

I'm looking at purchasing after summer. Please add me to the list.

 

Wesilva, you are added.

 

Put me down for later this summer...

 

would it be just sfcs or all spohn products? if it is extended to all spohn products, count me in. if its just sfcs...no thanks. im in no hurry either.

 

Well for the moment, it is just SFC's, but when I call him again, I will ask if we can maybe work something out for other parts too.

 

can you get them for a 91 z 28 conv., if so i would be interested!!

 

can i get in on this? I need them for a vert though

 

I will put you both down.

 

im interested to just let me know if i can

 

I'm backing out.... I was seaching the web and ran across a site that had Spohn #503 SFC for $150 + $ 15 to ship, I called and he said they forgot to update there webpage and that he'd give them to me for that price. lucky me

 

I'd be interested in Spohn's sub-frame connectors, and possibly a strut brace.

 

Any update on this whole affair? It's "later in the summer", does anyone know if Spohn can handle a GP now? I'm interested if Steve is able to lower his already reasonable prices

 

i am ready for a set like yesterday...i need SFC's...dont reall ycare whos they are...perferably Spohn's tho.

However, i think he SHOULD do a GP for us....this is like "home" for him i thought...kinda messed up IMO

 

I'm ready right now!!!

 

hey,
count me in too, depending on brand and price, but i have a feeling if we have this many people going in on it, we should get a good deal, otherwise it is not worth it to us and we could order them at our convenience...
tj

 

You guys are right, I did say I would try again "later in the summer". So I will start gathering people's names again and make the call. I will keep you posted.

 

count me in

 

Still interested.

 

I am in, depending on brand and price, a wonderbar would be nice too...
thanks

 

count me in

 

I think someone asked about a Spohn GP eariler this year and got shot down. He doesn't like to do them because he gets swamped with big orders. I'd say that, in this case, bigger isn't better. We don't need a GP for 100 pieces.

 

BTW, see what u can do w/ the Alston SFC's otherwise known as IRS SFC's or "da Terminators"

IRS=racenet.net

Im calling them now to guage there interest...let me know if u guys would go for the Alstons

I persoanlly like them better then Spohns

 

what are the alstons like? they look less expensive and they are painted too! i see no info. just title. no description, no pic. just a part number price and title. also what is the difference between the two types they have.... no, no weld on vs. bolt on. there are ones that also say "performance" i believe.

is there any interferance with exhaust or anything else possibe?
thanks,
tj
