According to MSW AVO now have the machinery to make them, but will start on tuesday.

Bleedin joke if you ask me, I could have had some made by now, and AVO should have got the parts done outside.

Trouser, where were you 4 weeks ago?

Pavlo,

Before you start jumping down my throat I've got no commercial interests anymore regarding anything Subaru. Whether you're buying 1 or 100 kits makes no odds, nor does it interest me.

All I was offering was some totally objective and unbiased information on my experiences with AVO shocks and what happened to my car.

If you're not interested that's up to you.

I do notice though that you list the NA-Motorsport web address on your profile, so I think it not entirely unfair to class you as a trader. And your post does suggest that a better deal might be had on the quiet if someone were to contact you, as that's not the case, you could have been more specific.

However, I wasn't referring to you specifically Craig, rather all traders, 1 trader offered to do the kit for just a little less than MSW a while back. So the price was dropped to remain competitive.

I did see your posts at the beginning of the first thread with regards to spring rates and track use etc. I am pretty sure that everyone that was interested in the group buy would have seen them too. Despite it being such a very long time ago (thanks to AVO).

Sorry to be so aggressive.

Paul,

I don't think the spring rates were mentioned by me?

Better change my profile I guess!

Can you guys please post as you receive the kits, as I will be all over Karen at AVO like a rash if they are late (ooooh err misses!)

But seriously, I want to make sure they go out as promised, otherwise I have been looking at some options for alternative supply, but would require a further wait.

just the luck of the draw I guess, you are getting them as they being assembled and finished. At least AVO saw fit to sort you out as a priority.
