It is not my intention to nit-pick, but you clearly state that items won't be eligible again for at least a year in the title. I'm also not trying to tell you how to do your job, I know you work REALLY hard at the group buys and I for one GREATLY appreciate it. I've just noticed that some items are getting recycled or at the minimum put up for a vote again inside a year. Shouldn't items that went up on GB not even be eligible to votes again within a year?

I can understand availability, pricing and some items just sell better than others, it's the consistency I'm more interested in. Maybe there is a logic to this I don't understand viewing from outside the GB selection process, so if you can be kind enough to explain I would appreciate it.

As for suggestions on April '09, My vote goes to the Kurama Z moldings (those aren't OEM and might get a decent GB price) Thanks again for all your hardwork organizing the group buys! I'm placing my order for the JDM fascia on Friday.

Oh i really like the karuma zeta flushmount wing idea, put that at the top of my list!

[bosskong]

I spoke too soon - after more research, I decided I'd rather have the Powertrix 90-93 wing over the Kuruma wing. Not sure if that's an option for the GB or not, but if it is...

What's the difference?


I just checked out the powertrix site, and there's no price listed for the wing on there, or maybe i'm blind...

I have no first-hand experience with either wing, but from what I've read, I believe there are a couple of studs or bolt holes on the Powertrix wing, whereas they are omitted and held on with adhesive on the Kuruma wing.

[WthreeZ]

13 inch front and rear rotors with adaptor kit. For us folks that cant afford $3000 brakes.

Wait is the Karuma one held on ONLY by adhesive? i don't know if i'd trust that considering how much force may be put on the wing at higher speeds...i'd much prefer have it actually bolted down i'm thinking....

[phantomz]

boost control for the win (11 thus far)
GReddy Profec B Spec II Boost Controller

No, I think the Powertrix wing uses all of the OEM bolts, while the Kuruma wing only uses some (most?) of them. Again, this is just what I've heard, so don't take it as fact.
