GTR2NV GTST SEDAN

$1,260.00

wouldnt this be considered 2 orders?

i mean, i have order 2 sets but separate payments

what exactly did u order......if it is considered to orders ill let ultimate know

and just to let everyone know. mine and a few other earli birds covers are already finshed and ready for pickup. but that wont be possible until we get 20 payers.

so lets all try and get 3 more ppl into the gb so we can all go home with nice vinyl seats.....

well, i had a look back (refer to post 132 and 141)

i was refering to GTST_SEDAN and GTR.2NV 's order respectively. They have ordered separately but paid together. So its considered two orders for them.

Technically we have 17 paid

i talked to ultimate he said like 7-8 sets of covers are finished....so that means a good half of us would have our covers if everyone paid.

so we really gotta hurry and get those other 3 ppl

anDru, if i was you, and I lived in Melbourne, i would pop down to Ultimate and talk to the guys direct.

You could sweet talk em into giving you the covers if they are just sitting there, or offer them a few extra bob.

Defeats the purpose of the group buy if you have to pay extra, but then again its rediculus and against the rules that a group buy has no end date and goes on for months and months and months and months.

At the end of the day, ultimate are going to get 20 orders, whether it be this week or this month. There's enough interest out there for this group buy to be completed.

I was happy to wait with the knowledge that my seat covers hadn't been made. However, if my covers are completed, then I think it is unfair for ultimate to withhold delivering them because of some "group buy" contract. They would be better off cutting their losses (if there even is any) at 17 and finding three other customers to pay the full amount. If it was to go to court or small claims (god forbid) then it would be Ultimate that would come out of it with a mark against their name, not the paying customer.

It would be really nice to have something to show for the 500 odd dollars I spent more than 3 months ago.

I also doubt that this thread is doing any favours convincing people that they should buy a set of covers.

i just spoke to ultimate.

the covers are NOT finished yet but close to finishing, so andru i dunno how you got that info..

secondly they are not happy about the fact that its taking so long to get 20 either. I am gonna call my friends and see if i can go and get them to pay.

as soon as all the covers are finished i will let you all know, meanwhile if you guys can find 3 more people it would be great.

i didnt say all the covers were finished. but a few sets are......and he also told me if we can get all 20 to pay by the end of this week he can finish all 17 by next week and the other 3 in another 3 weeks.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
