How about your new carbon fibre rad top hose and max air box? Don't suppose they'll be ready in time though...

As you guessed they probably won't be ready in time. You can count on them being in the next GB though, or maybe even a GB of their own! As soon as they are in my hands or I have verified pricing and verified ETA I will post up an offer on them.

im after a new hood (bonnet) and i know a lot more people are too.....so this would make sence?

I think shipping body parts twice (once to my forwarder in the UK and then once from him to you) makes it cost more than if I ship direct to you.
I have shipped a few body parts to the UK via 10-day delivery service for a reasonable price - especially hoods. If you are interested in a hood please email me and I will quote you. I think you will find it is surprisingly "cheap" to ship to you. dusty@mvpmotorsports.com

01-02-05, 20:53
I want a oil cap :D
Hi Dusty
I've noticed that there's a few guys interested in RaceLogic Traction control. Do you sell that?
single turbo kits, hi stall torque convertors :D
Whitelightning
01-02-05, 21:25
Isnt there a group buy already running for RLTC ?
But Seats would be good too ;)
hi stall torque convertors I'd also be tempted in a high stall TC for the right price.
Whitelightning
01-02-05, 21:49
Or seats ?
Seats are good ;)
What brand turbo kits?
What brand TC?
What brand seats? Sparco I assume but just checking...
I really need specific items as I can't put every turbo kit on special, etc.

Dusty

i got you to quote me a fluidyne when i got my bits on madness 1 and in my wisdom thought my ropey old 1993 rad would soldier on a bit longer, guess what it did'nt and now i need a price again, and let this be a warning to the rest of you 93-94 boys out there your rad WILL be on its last legs

How about HKS Racing TI exhausts -with 3" adaptors to fit smaller downpipe?
If anybodys interested? :eek: :)
Seems to be a bit of interest in the TRD strut brace at present....
Keep the suggestions coming, then I will make another post showing all the suggestions. Then see which items the most people are interested in...
Regards,
Dusty
P.S. Paul I will answer your email as soon as I possibly can!

trd strut brace
sparcos with all the necessary fittings
Milanos / Torinos
Or HKS Ti exhuast systems.
C.
:)
In order of priority for my needs:
HKS Hipermax II Coilovers or maybe the Performers (advice required)
Blitz LM V Spec or Greddy 3 row FMIC
Veilside Titanium Exhaust with optional silencer (HKS might be too loud for my tastes)
HKS SSQV (Either with fitting kit or relevant weld on flange)
Spal 13" Fan
Top rad pipe in carbon in near future :)
I am also still after a good set of wheels so I guess given a decent price I'd go for the Double Sixes in Champagne Gold.

Race Logic Traction Control is the 'preferred' option over here it seems

No conclusions yet. Right now I'm sorting through all our inventory from our move. That will help me figure out some of the things I want to put on special. Other things on special come from the feedback posted here. As soon as everything is settled in here I'll start the GB in a new thread.
Thanks to everyone for your continued input!!

AEM Gauge-Type UEGO Kit w/AFR Sensor :)
Any news on this Dusty? Not wanting anything new, but you're shipping my plug cover along with the GB...

Simply a lack of time getting it together. I've been working 24/7 getting ready for the national Supra meet we have over here next week.
I'll get it going ASAP!!

No probs, hope you're going to post some pics up!

A friend of mine (fellow Supra owner) is flying in from California for the meet. He is a hobby photographer and will be taking a lot of pictures. I'll be sure to post up a load of them when we get back. :)
Cheers,
Dusty
cant wait for that should be something special :gallery: :thumbs:
Has anyone mentioned seats...
I would love some seats.
Sparco torinos or milanos would be great!
I think shipping would kill the value of a nice seat group buy because of the really large volume they have...

I'm also after an AEM Guage-Type UEGO kit AFR display, although from looking on your website you speak very highly of the Innovate wide band kits.
I kinda prefer having the AEM guage display but was planning on hopefully linking the WB02 signal with my E-01 which won't necessarily display AFR with some WB02 kits so i'm confused now.
Unless anyone can suggest reasons otherwise i'm definiately up for the AEM UEGO.
My list in priority:
1)AEM Guage-Type UEGO kit AFR dislplay
2)Greddy 52mm Universal A-Pillar Guage pod for above
3)MVP "MAX AIR" Air box (any chance you could do the kit with precut hole for an Apexi Power Intake or do you recommend your K&N over this?)
4)Greddy Oil catch tank (new lightweight version+bracket)
5)Titan Line-lock Kit
6)TopSpeed Aluminium Intake Pipe (if its fine for JDM w/Blue hoses)
7)13"Push fan for between FMIC & A/C condensor
8)Water Wetter (sounds like a bargain)
9)HKS Circle Earth grounding kit
10) I'd love a Powerhouse Racing Stage5 GT76 DBB Single Turbo kit... but that will have to wait till next year i think!!!
:thumbs:
I see from Supraforums the CF rad pipes will be ready in a couple of weeks, so since there isn't a date for the next shipment yet will they be ready in time to go in? I'm kind of hoping the GB will be soon so I can get my plug cover, but also hoping it won't be for a couple of weeks so I can add a CF rad pipe at the same time!
4)Greddy Oil catch tank (new lightweight version+bracket)
I'm sure it'll make all the difference! ;)

The next GB won't ship before the pipes are ready. You will be able to get both if you want, no issue.

Cool, put me down for one then. More pain for the credit card!
Done. Cheap for you though as I can just slip it in the same box. All I'll add is the Customs fee to the $150 price.

When's the next GB, Dusty? It's been a while now.

You're right, that's my fault. I just didn't want to do a GB until we were settled in here in our new building enough that I can give it my full attention. I feel we are to that point now and I will get one started ASAP.

Ha, Ha. Weight not really being the main concern there, just happened to be how it was listed on the MVP website!
:stickpoke
So anyway Dusty how do we go about getting in on this order, i'm definately after the GReddy catch tank and bracket, just wondering how much stuff i should be thinking bout ordering?
There will be 2 general kinds of things to buy:
1) What I post in the group buy at some sort of special delivered price
2) Everything else...which I can include in the mass air shipment, thus reducing your delivered cost on it.
For example if you want an $89 catch tank that is not part of the group buy, then I will calculate Customs / taxes / freight to your door and then ask you to pay that total. But since it is going in a big "master" box with lots of other people's parts it won't cost a whole lot more above the $89 to get it in your hands.

Dusty

Ok so i take it your still deciding on the "Group buy" items (any ideas yet?)
Just wondering who sorts out who gets what from the Master Box when it arrives in the UK (haven't really neen in on a Group Buy before so it's all a bit vague to me)
If i wanted to get the Oil Catch tank + bracket, Titan Line-loc and say a bottle of Water Wetter chucked in also, would this be worth/ok to put in with the Group shipment and would it hike up Import Duty/VAT??
I pretty much have decided, I just need to organize it all and calculate "delivered to your door" prices. Requires a little quiet time which I can't seem to get LOL.
Matt at Vortex gets all the boxes. Inside the master boxes is everyone's orders, pre-boxed with your name and address already on it. Then Matt just sticks it in the mail to you.
An order for a catch tank, line lock, and water wetter is fine. That's exactly the kind of order I expect from most. Anything you need can be had at a cheaper TOTAL price during the group buy because we are consolidating shipping costs which saves me and thus you money.
Anything adds to the Import Duty, but I pre-calculate what that will be and then give you a total to pay me. Matt pays your duty and I reimburse him. So when it arrives at your door you owe nothing as Matt sends it using internal shipping, all the duties are paid before you get the parts. I make it as easy and hassle-free for you as it could possibly be!

Dusty

it would be lovely to see another 'madness' arranged soon, as the show season is about to start
Rob
You are 100% right Rob, its overdue. I'll make up for it. I'll make it bigger and better than the last one.
For sure we will have Fluidyne Radiators and Greddy 3-row FMIC's on there.
I'm still trying to calculate the most affordable way to ship the Fluidynes.
Thanks,
Dusty

Dusty, would it be possible for me to have a set of Front R2 racing bushes sent over with this Group Buy? (item #R2R 800-CA200).
RS*R exhaust is awesome btw, thanks very much for that :thumbs:
The bushings would be no problem! Definitely cheaper to ship with the GB than to ship alone!!
Glad you like the RS*R, its a nice exhaust for the money I think.
Kind regards,
Dusty

Excellent! Provided the GB goes ahead, could I use my remaining credit towards this? If so can you let me know how much I need to send over. cheers, Carl

Dusty
whats going on with this buy your last comunication was nearly 2 months ago is it still on ? i'me asking cos i have paid for a cooling fan which i now really need due to a rare occurence in the UK ~ hot weather, if it is'nt happening in the next couple of weeks could you please refund me my payment
The GB will take place in the next couple of weeks, however it will not SHIP within 2 weeks, that would be impossible. It wouldn't give anyone time to buy the parts.
Please contact me privately regarding the refund.
Thanks,
Dusty

I know that Dusty has "just" come back from being on vacation.

Guys, I wouldn't hold out too much hope on the Madness 2 group buy. This thread started 6 months ago and there is still no sign of it happening!

i noticed on their site that the contact for Supra parts has changed to 'David' (who is coincidentally away!)
I've been in contact with Dusty, the groupbuy IS still going ahead
:tumble:
Quite.... apparently getting shipped begining of october...
:shrug:
Might be worth finding out how much delivery to your door would be. I had some Tanabe springs straight to my door and it worked out quite reasonable and only took a few days.
TBH, I am not after anything in particular, but could be swayed by good prices in a GB :)
