So just send an extra 19.30 and all is good?

Fuck sakes ... I already blew the load on the GT2554 setup :( I'm sure one of you guys will flake out on your engine build and I can swoop in and snag a set cheap :)

Well done Ben, nice to see a group buy come together with no drama. Miataturbo.net is officially the bestest at group buys.

Meh, nothing special about those prices, but keep talkin'. I do believe the one-two punch of kit discount multiplied by group buy might do the trick.

Daaaaamn son! My big black nitrided, forged, billet, titanium rod was fixin' to bust all up in this bitch, then you start say'n some shit 'bout things movin' too fast? Get on that shit beotch, my pimp hand is strong!

I am still in too. Sorry about your troubles arranging this.

Hey guys, thanks for being cool here.
I don't think I got a single refund request. But I'll go over everything again to make sure, and I'll update the list this afternoon.

I don't have time to respond to all the PM's now. I'll get back with you this afternoon and get them answered. Also, we'll figure out shipping charges to Hawaii and Canada. My zip is 30548, and I'm not going to mark shipping up any, if you want to take a stab at it.

Oh, and the water pumps are nice, but are NOT the cool project that *hopefully* is in the works...

Loki047 12-28-2007 09:26 AM

I am still in.

Splitime, when you build your engine up can i watch/help? Ive done little work here and there, but never a full build.

Unless your going to a shop. If you are lets see if we can get a deal for two engine builds.

supersuk 12-28-2007 11:33 AM

I'm still in, just waiting for a paypal address that I need to send the money to!!

I'm not planning a rebuild atm. I've built a few motors though, its not big deal. I use Apex Machine over by OHare to do the machine work... and then do the build myself.

You are more than welcome to participate when I get there though. Or bring your 1.6 over for swapping into my car and buy junk for it and we can do a refresh on it for 'fun'.

Ben 12-28-2007 11:49 AM

OK, I think I got all the PMs replied to, except those asking for the additional amount for shipping to Canada. You guys need to tell me what carrier to use, as I understand you can get raped on import fees through certain carriers.

Shipping to Hawaii looks like $15 using USPS. If there's a better carrier, let me know.

If I missed any PMs, let me know. I'm going to work on the list now.

Yo Ben just send that usps and as a gift.

Ben 12-28-2007 12:18 PM

OK, for our Canadian friends, USPS has a flat rate priority mail box that's $23 + 4.60 for insurance.
23+4.60=27.60
(295+27.60)*1.064= $343.25
All values in USD

Ben 12-28-2007 12:29 PM

USPS shipping to Hawaii is $15 via Priority. :bigtu:

y8s 12-28-2007 02:02 PM

hey ben, i'm looking for the full valve train (in/ex std size back cut, springs, retainers) but yeah it looks like the pricing you gave is similar to belfabs prices.

tann3r 12-28-2007 07:11 PM

Payment sent, thanks again for setting this up!

Matt, you're in no rush right? Those *were* the retail prices. But it's something we can work on depending on the success of this buy.

tann3r, did you sign up just for this? :gay:

lol, though i could use them...been contemplating a taller rear end ratio for the track, but the same problem can be fixed with more rpm :bigtu:

rockdoc 12-28-2007 07:33 PM
