Well I am waiting on PayPal to 'verify' my damn account by depositing those 2 small amounts into my account then you'll have payment via credit card. Thank you for being patient.

i just have to ask...if the early post says must be welded on the ground or with 4 post lift, why weld with the wheels hanging??!! why chance screwing up the geometry of the suspension or the full benefit of the braces?

If lifted in the right locations on the underneath of the car a 2 post lift can be used.

I don't have a problem with the doors not opening or closing. It was raised level all the way up. Nothing 'level wise' became unlevel. The only thing that changed was the wheel gap. I mean that is normal on any car; ya raise it up, the wheels hang until they swing downward. Like I said, no problems and everything is still welded.

VERY WORTHY. The car is more stiff. I installed the rear end links drove it around and didn't really feel much. More so cuz it's FWD. Got the braces installed and took more corners and the car felt more 'stable'. Installed the front end links & FSTB yesterday and it removed that oversteer you have when you 'jump on the gas' and definitely made the car more sturdier.

Hello boys and girls,
This group buy ends at 12 midnight on April 6th. If you want in now is the time. Our prices will be returning to normal. Next opportunity to buy at a reduced price will be the Houston meet on Memorial day weekend.

Thanks for your interest.

AnDyMaN, as far as I know, there has never been an issue. Look carefully at the 6th Gen photos that have been posted up on several threads.

Group buy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We are happy to be working with TUKO316 on the group buy. Once 10 are in we will ask that you paypal payment to our e-mail address. truaxmotorsports@gmail.com He twisted the letters around in his earlier post. No need to send your money earlier, but we will not build until all 10 have sent their payment. Please email us if you have questions or go to our web site, truaxmotorsports.com and read our FAQ section.
The cost is correctly listed. $285 to lower 48, includes shipping. If you live in Canada, Alaska, or Hawaii, we will charge you $250 + the cost of shipping. We ship Fedex, so you will need to ship to a street address. P.O. boxes are not allowed.

Chassis braces

kamski we can't ship to Canada for ther same price, although it usually isn't a huge difference. We can run your postal address and see what it will cost you. Send us your address via email and we can see what it will cost you.

Hello All,
This group buy offically closes in 48 hours. Just to refresh your memory. The total cost is $285 shipped in lower 48, call for a price quote on shipping if you live elsewhere.

Thanks for your support
