KSP Engineering bolt-on spacer group buy

[d-style]

Hi guys, Im just over from the silviawa and nissansilvia forums, and Im in the process of organising a group buy on these bolt-on KSP Engineering spacers and was wondering if anyone over here was interested.

These kind of spacers are much safer than regular slide-on spacers, and come with a centre insert to properly mount the wheel load on the hub, rather than relying solely on the wheel studs - which can shear (not good )

Basically, the more track you have, the better - and this way is much cheaper than buying a whole new set of wheels in a different offset

Go to www.ksp-eng.co.jp/ATTAIN/menu4/3.html for pictures - we are ordering the second one down they are available in sizes 15, 20, 25 and 30mm, however 30mm are slightly more expensive. All are available in 5x114.3 PCD as well.

Pricing per pair:

KSP Engineering Wide Tread Spacer R Type 25mm. 4 x 114.3: 15,939 yen

Shipping: 8,300 yen

TOTAL: 24,239 yen AU$305

Regular pricing:

KSP Engineering Wide Tread Spacer R Type 25mm. 4 x 114.3: 21,252 yen

Shipping: 8,300 yen

TOTAL: 29,552 yen AU$372

Both the 15 and 20mm will be the same price.

Note that the price offered is a huge $70 off the regular price - thats around 25% - which is already ~$35 less than the price on the KSP website. Also, I think I have been misquoted on the shipping cost, which could see the price per pair drop by an additional $50-odd

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, please email me with your full name, address and what exactly you want. Im not actually sure if there is some form of private messaging system on these boards - if there is, feel free to PM me with any questions or interest

Keep in mind that you wont find this kind of spacer for this price anywhere else. Get in!

Great for you to offer this but since many states consider these illegal, who is going to accept liability for the safe operation of the product without damage to original equipment and possible third party liability in an accident where the insurance companies will immediately jump on these as a contributing factor (we're not all engineers on here but some are luckier than others) regardless of the cause?

As well, I would suggest some research into automotive and race engineering before making such a broad statement as that above. The increased kingpin offset will change the steering response and feedback in different situations, pulling harder toward the unlocked wheel in a single front lockup and giving a feel of greater understeer in hard cornering and possibly make the driver work harder, making the car uncomfortable on long drives.

That said, I use a design like this for racing my 'line and would recommend them for such, but if you intend to use them on the road invest in getting them engineer approved for your state of oeration and obtain appropriate approval from your insurer.

Normally I wouldn't cruel your good intentions but this is a safety matter that potential purchasers need to decide on with some facts as they could end up paying the rest of their lives for the failure of such modifications.

Good luck.

Thanks for your info - I wasnt aware that increased track could have some negative effects, thanks for clearing that up.

Unfortunately, the group buy has been cancelled for various reasons
