1slow370z - MSRP was posted in the first post - a discounted rate might be considered for the first batch of them if the demand is there, we're not opposed to that
We've looked into the motor mounts too, and have a CAD file already prepared, though we have not figured out a way to improve on the factory pieces yet short of full solid mounts, which I am not sure the market would support, since it seems very few of these cars are being tracked or built for track use
We don't make test pipes, so not sure where you got that idea from. As far as our pricing, and products in general here is how we operate. Take it fwiw.
We do NOT sell every brand under the sun. Just the opposite. If I would not run it on my own car, I will not sell it. No ifs, ands or buts. That is why you will see some products from a manufacturer on our site, and not others. Some of a manufacturers products are worth us selling. Others are not. We are hands on here, and if something doesn't look good enough to me, I won't sell it.
With respect to pricing, I would beg to differ. I know our pricing is competitive in the marketplace. Not some random website you spend 30 minutes searching for or some blow out ebay listing from someone with 2 feedbacks. Not a seller who tells you a given set of coilovers will drop a car 4 inches when they only drop a car 1.5. I don't consider them our competition. At the risk of sounding snobby, I know for a fact our staff are more informed, and far more hands on than most of the other online sellers out there. They are also far more attentive, and far more active in the actual community, than most other vendors out there. That is why I don't particularly care if we're sometimes a bit more expensive - that level of knowledge isn't free, nor is that level of support both pre and post purchase. If all anyone is after is the cheapest price possible, I can certainly appreciate that - and if I can offer it, we certainly try. And if we can't, I don't lose sleep over it. We don't exist to be pricematched to death, merely to get the sale. I don't want those kind of sales in the first place, because they don't advance us as a company. Probably why not a single day goes by where someone doesn't call us for tech support on a product we didn't sell them. it happens all the time, on suspension parts, drivetrain parts, etc. This is not a job where we punch clocks. We are all passionate, to our core, about cars and performance in general. Any of our longterm customers will tell you that. The appeal of a cheap price goes away way quicker than the long term support of a vendor who actually knows what they are selling in the first place. We're not here to be all things to all people, and that is why we've remained not only in business, but successful, for as many years as we have. All while new .coms go out of business as quickly as they came in.
