IMPORTANT PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS
The dealer wants it handled as follows.
For your order, please do this:
People can place their individual orders on our website. Try to remember they are only placing an oder. They place at the bottem of the order, that they are part of a group buy by stating :
"Club CJ Group Buy price $86.00 incl GST"
For those in NSW, discuss among yourselves first who wants to act as the delivery point. If it's Ozie, please further state:
"GROUP SHIP NSW to Ozie"
Once the order comes through to us, an email will then be sent out to them advising them their group buy order has been confirmed, and the group buy pricing would also be confirmed for them, giving them the exact amount they would have to pay.
People are not to pay until after their order status has been changed from "Pending" to "Group Buy order Confirmed" via email.
The reason why nothing is shipped out until all the orders are paid, is fairly simple. Being a group buy, it is based on all the orders going out. If only 5 people pay, then we don't get any benefit from the group buy. Unfortunatly this has happened to us before.
Note
The dealer has all your names and nicks as per what you've sent to me and also your address, so no one else can gate crash this purchase.
Hopefully that makes more sense to you.
Feel free to ask if you don't.
Finally PLEASE do this ASAP and don't hold up everyone else. Report back when you've done it and I'll list a running head count through this post.

I've just got an email from RPW asking as to the progress of this. People need to respond by Monday. If I don't get 10 by Monday, this offer lapses.

I've thought about this part previously, but im not sure whether its worth the investment. It's affordable but I'm not sure what real gains are provided. If shipping didnt cost so much I would've already ordered an SRI/CAI from the States =[

How much would shipping be.. roughly?

Shipping wouldn't be much when you split the costs especially if multiple are going to each state - even then if one person gets sent them for NSW I can distribute from there if need be to save on postage costs again.

Damn, just bought mine and fitted on this Tuesday, if it is of any help to those who are indecisive, well it works a treat as far as I'm aware of.
when i put my foot half throttle in 6th at 90K, its using just under 9 litres instead of what was before 10.
Its also rumoured to give you extra horsepowers, but i think thats just a marketing trick.
Sound wise, probably smoother, but again maybe I was just imagining.
Is it worth it, YES, for such a small price, it definitely works a heck lot better than the stock.

So the discounted price of $86 does include GST?
Is there any offer to get discounted a Service Kit as well?

by ofey
Yes it's inclusive already.
Not at the moment. We will run a seperate group buy for that.

I'm keen as to get this filter, but I'm not all that convinced the reduced price is enough of a saving when you take into account that you'd need to pay a second lot of postage to get the Service Kit later on...

ofey put me on the list for this as well please.
*Marsh, the savings outlined in this thread are tremendous!!
the service kit wont be that much! and the savings will be factored in on the more people buying it...so you will save again on the postage....
personally i don't think you need the service kit.
