Hi Angelo
We have discussed the group buy at length and have decided to go ahead with
it. However, we do have a couple of conditions. The price will be as
before - $800.00 - for the complete kit - rotors, calipers, pads, brackets,
hardware, stainless steel lines etc. plus shipping. The group buy must have
a definite end - beyond this, we will not accept any more group buy orders.
I would suggest close of business on Friday 14 July as a firm end date.
Beyond this date, the price will revert to the regular price of $999.00.
The group buy must reach at least 10 brake kit orders. We will accept
orders within the same group buy for all generations of Maxima for which we
have kits - third, fourth, and fifth gen. The kits may be ordered with
cross-drilled and slotted or slotted only rotors. The kits will all come
standard with Wilwood 'D' street/performance compound pads - any changes
from this must take place at time of order and there may be a price
adjustment depending on the pad compound selected. We require a deposit of
half the kit price at time of order and will charge the remaining half and
shipping at time of shipping. All kits will be shipped within three weeks
of the close of the group buy.
If you would prefer an earlier close to the group buy, that would be
acceptable - it would mean that you would get your stuff sooner - it is just
that next week is a holiday week and many people will not be available.
Please let me know your thoughts.

As per Nigel of Precision Brakes the deadline for the group deal is "the close of business on Friday 14 July as a firm end date.
Beyond this date, the price will revert to the regular price of $999.00."
From what I see, out of the original list of people in on this group deal, it seems the following people are still in (as far as the latest comments suggest).
1- SterlingMist00 (me)
2- dmbmaxima2k2- already ordered his
3- Pmp-n8a
4- 00Semaxi (new to the list)
Anyone else still in???

Ok guys,
We either need to do this through dmbmaxima2k2 or we gotta do 10 through Nigel/PB. I'm posting this publicly since it's to my understanding we can get it done through mister frankencar here for less than 10 people in the group buy.
People that have shown interest/given me the official "yes" confirmation via email :
1. SterlingMist00
2. dmbmaxima2k2
3. Pmp-n8a
4. emax95
5. CBass69187
6. Me
7. Backed out
<--- no that's not a name, that's just a spot that we lost out of the 7 who mailed me
If I missed anyone, please let me know!

7. 00Semaxi I just added him as the 7th person.
8. chinaonnitrous1 I just added him as the 8th person.
China, Nigel of Prec. Brakes wrote this: "We require a deposit of half the kit price at time of order and will charge the remaining half and shipping at time of shipping. All kits will be shipped within three weeks of the close of the group buy."
So that means that you would have to pay the balance 3 weeks AFTER the close of the group deal which closes on July 14th. So the balance would be due around August 5th. If you can do this then reply to the post.
So we are at 8 now... Anyone else?? REMEMBER .... Nigel of Prec. Brakes said this group deal can include even 3rd and 4th gens. WE ONLY NEED 2 MORE PEOPLE....which reminds me Jer, what about your 2 local friends where you live, are they in???

This is the latest from Nigel of Precision Brakes:
Hi Angelo
Thanks for your email.
If you would like to extend the group buy and maybe make the close date a week later, that would be OK. The only thing of which I would like to be sure, is a definite closing date. Once that date comes up, no more orders will be accepted at group buy prices. I have one order so far but no deposit. If you keep me informed of what is happening, that would be fine.
Regards
Nigel

We have to make sure that all 10 orders are placed by the GD closing date of July 22 and Nigel stated that they require the deposits at the time you order. All brake kits will be shipped within 3 weeks of the close of the GD- which is July,22, They will then want the balance due at the time of shipping.
We are still 3 people short of the required 10. Jer, what happened to your 2 friends that live by you??
Nigel stated earlier that:
"We will accept orders within the same group buy for all generations of Maxima for which we have kits - third, fourth, and fifth gen"
ARE THERE ANY 4gens from the 4th gen GD that we can tack on to this GD?
Come on guys....we have until July, 22!

It seems we have 8, but we can count people from 4thgen GD as per Nigel....so we should have enough as we stand. As far as credit cards I don't know. Just give Nigel a call and let us know what he says.....

I'm afraid I'm out for now : got a good local deal on some front rotors; I've got other parts that need replacing even more urgently now
Good luck... how many 4th gens have ordered? Can you be added to their list?

Get up some photos of your setup. I unfortunately had to bow out of the GD since I found (by using the template that Nigel sent me) that the big brakes WOULD NOT fit the OEM 17x7 rims that I intend to use for the winter months.
Stillen here I come.....
