You need to place an order within the next couple of weeks. We have two shipments coming. The first is due early Feb, the next a few weeks later.

No, youre on the second. We second guessed potential demand on the first shipment, the order was placed before the GB was posted on Scoobynet.

If your order happens to be for a kit frrom the first shipment then you get a kit from the first shipment, if not then its on the second Its not just a case of where you are in the queue.

Yes, what wheels do you have? The 330mm fit under the majority of 17s. Carriage to NI would be £50.

The buy will run into Feb but there are limited quantities of kits available on this buy.

I have no intention of running the buy again in the near future, the margins we are working with a minimal. The prices the brakes are being offered at are rediculously cheap for what you get, this really is a bargain

Halfords Dot 5.1 is perfectly good, cheap and freely available.

We will contact people when payment is due assuming you have been in touch to give us your details.

If there are any kits spare at the end of Feb then yeah, youll be able to order. Its looking doubtful, theyre going fast.

We dont fit but a local tuner does, Richard Henry Autos. Theyre an Impreza specialist, they do all the work to our Impreza and currently have our S14a Time Attack car (Tomei 2.2 engine, Quaiffe 6 speed sequential box, triple plate clutch, Motec M800, T78 turbo kit etc) and our drift Skyline (similar chassis spec, PPG 5 speed dog box etc but with a new engine for 2008 .

Hi Bren...My Girlfriend called today to pay in full for the 330mm kit. Im a bit confused,even tho card details were taken it seems no money transaction took place. Is the phone call just to confirm interest in the group buy or will money be debited when you receive the brakes?
