ok so here is the deal finally after a couple of month my parts manager says he can get the variable intake manifolds.

we went of the parts list that were supplied by iansw & mr cranman supplied. thanks

ok so we are going to need 15 people to be in this one.
e-mail me if interested Sunlochu@aol.com.

we don't have a set time frame as of how long im going to wait to get 15 people in.

the price will be around $490 shipped to your door.

visit any of the variable intake manifold threads and you will find all the info you need to know about these things.

Frank-

 

how many people on your list so far?

 

well i have had a few people that have contacted me. but i have 1 person so far.

we need to get more peopel.

im wondering if more people would be interested if i can do a deal with everything needed to install. (rpm switch, etc etc) thats what i am trying to work on right now.

 

Getting the other parts and selling it as one 'kit' would be a plus for sure. Also, find out if you can get the plastic engine cover. That's a nice option.....

Thanks for your efforts....

 

yes i will try to see what i can work out. but i do need more interest in this so i can get my parts manager to start getting more info, and prices to you guys/gals.

 

I'm very interested.

 

I would be interested in a complete kit... I want to buy all the stuff from ONE place, and get instructions. see what you can do and get back to us

 

ok so most likely you people would be more interested in the complete kits as uposed to finding the rpm switch and stuff on your own?????? let me know what you guys think so maybe i can do something like that instead of just the collector. price will go up a little for the extra parts but i will have to grind a little to keep the price down.

Frank

 

Yup- Most of us (at least myself) is lazy when it comes to buying diff. components for a particular mod such as this. It would be a huge plus if you can indeed come up with a complete package. Having done groupdeals in the past, I know 1st hand what a huge PITA handling this can be. We appreciate all your efforts. I'm in no hurry to throw in money for this project so I can wait as more information is passed along to us.

Thanks.

 

also... even if you charge us more for the extra parts... the cost of shipping ONE package for us is less than shipping 3 or 4 things (saving money on the parts, but lose the savings on shipping.) so let us know what you can do.

thanks for all your work on this deal

 

I wanna be faster than Bluey

 

if you can get this in a complete package then id be interested. also, maybe if you could do something like half the money now, half later? andi would like to have it this summer instead 2 or 3 monthes liek the other deals. let us know!

Trevor

 

I'd be interested. It would also be nice to have the parts ready to ship before the group deal is setup. That way we wouldn't feel bad about having to wait so long when our money could be spent some where else more productively in the meantime. You know what i'm sayin?

 

yeah i can understand where your coming from. but the other problem would be that is a lot of money to front for parts and that what the parts manager was telling me im sure we can work something out.

 

Dealers should have enough buying power to order 15 or so VI's. What he will want is assurance of demand. Try to negotiate with him provisions for a deposit from each group deal participant--$100 let's say--that is non-refundable if the full amount isn't paid within two weeks from the time the intakes are in his possession and ready to ship. You may also increase his cut of the profit to defray any liability for potential overstock. If the dealer accepts credit card, you will have a lot of takers I'm sure...

 

I will be in on this if you can wait until after the 1st of june to get the money (That is my B-Day and I'll have the money then).

Also I would prefer everything in one package as I know a lot of people have had problems locating RPM switches or getting them in less time it takes to get the VI. I would be willing to put any deposit necessary to get this done though.

 

ok i,ve talk to him a little more in about this he seem to be pretty excited about this. i showed him the tread along with the e-mails that i have recieved he is making the phone calls to set up a pacakge deal including all of the parts that will be needed. so we are finally getting somewhere final details will be ironed out before we start getting everything set.

this is what i got so far. i will keep you guys updated.

Frank

 

A complete kit would be convenient. One problem I see with this is that if there are any problems/returns with the rpm switch or soleniod you will have to go through jdmmax.

Also you will need more than an rpm switch and soleniod. Don't forget the relay, vacuum reservoir, hoses, "T" connector, hose adaptors, wiring, and electrical connectors to complete the installation.

I'm just posting this info because the desire for a VI disrupts rational judgement. jdmmax I think what you are doing is great. Please be aware that by offering a complete kit you are taking on more responsibility and investing more time and money.

I hope this deal goes through because everybody needs a faster max!

 

i am aware of the fact that there is a lot more that has to go into putting toghther a complete kit i am doing all of the reasearch i posibbly can. this is still a very new mod for a maxima. i only have a few reliable sources to talk to. before we go foward i will be posting a complete list of exactly what everyone will be getting. and how fesable the complete kit can be. the original plan sort of changed on me due to serveral requests for a complete kit. i just hope i can get this going.

Frank

 

dude seriously though, much respect to you and to everyone else on the org that take the time to organize these things. I know how lazy I can be so that just makes me respect you guys even more.

Keep us updated. Hopefully we'll have some good news soon.

 

wow frank all this interest in a day..nice to see things up and going im down to get into the deal if you give me a time frame of when you need the cash..looks like i have to sell an arm and a few toes in order to get the cash for the deal because of my "incident" but ill try my best..also how hard is the install cand a do it yourselfer put it on or is it best to take it to a shop?

 

heheheheeh im probably gonna do it in my drive way.

 

I'll definitely buy one if you make a complete kit. I'm going away for vacation until june 11th though.

 

I'll probably be in too. I would like a complete kit ready to install as well.

 

JD.. How much might this kit cost...maybe you posted and I didn't read... sound good for a complete kit if you can pull it off... I think my main concern is not whether or not I can get BUT.. if something is wrong cust t mer service no what I mean...

 

ok people im going to be sitting down with the parts manager tomorrow to see if we can iron out some of the more the details. its been kind of crazy around the dealership today. i will keep you guys and gals updated.

frank

 

Just letting you know I have the money now so I am in if this goes through.

 

hey Frank I'll give you a call

if you can get a complete kit i s'pose you can count me down! hopefully keepin under 500 I'll be in Taiwan July... so yah maybe we can do it before then

 

hopefully

 

huh ok were still waiting on info witht the Intake manifolds. the people we are talking to are trying to allocate enough intake manifolds so if we can get this deal started it will be a fast turn around time sorry for lack of updates but there really hasn't been very many updates to speak of. i will keep everyone posted.

frank

 

Yes I would be in IF the GD happens AND it provides ALL parts. I don't want to buy bits and pieces from different places. Too much hassle!

 

man i'd love to see what this thing will do for your car!!! keep us informed on that

but if i get the money in b/f this deal comes to a close, i'll be in too!!! i'd love to get the whole kit also so keep us all informed

much respect,
mike

 

What parts are included in this deal? I'd be interested in a deal with all parts, but if only like 4-5 parts are missing like in Cranmans deal, I don't mind.

Please show a list of parts that come with kit,($490) and a list of all parts *NEEDED*.

 

update???

 

ok so i just talked to my parts manager today. it seems the first guy either wanted us to order enough stuff to fill a 30 shipping container or we would have to wait for enough orders to build up from different source in cali before the guy would ship a container over here or something to that effect.

but on the other hand we are having another guy out of central america that can getthe parts that we need so im sitting tight and seeing what gonna happen with either one again sorry to keep everyone hanging put yeah this was harder to set up then we imagined. thanks for your patinece everyone. what my guy is thinking is maybe get a few kits in to have on hand to sell so were still sorting everything out.

frank

 

have a few kits and dyno too mang! i wana see more dyno results hehe

My friends own shipping companies... if this deal takes too long when I'm in Taiwan i can takl to them about shipping.. they're all based in Panama and Taiwan
