There would be physical assets (inventory, equipment, etc), but good luck getting in line for anything from that.

ok guys, i just got off the phone with sam, and thought i would post what we talked about so everyone could maybe get a little more excited and maybe make this thread a little less depressing lol. talked to him for a good 15 or 20 minutes. answered the phone right away with no delays. first off, i know they are really busy with all kinds of things, and maybe they don't have much time to get on the forums and post but he had no problems taking the time to talk to me. all i can say is if anyone wants updates, just give them a call. I'm not relying on this thread anymore for updates, if i need an update, i will call him or mike directly.
anyways, down to the good stuff...

i was told by sam that everything is going smoothly now that the holidays are over, and all the bender problems and all that are behind them. the cast pieces are starting to come in. still no exact shipping date, which is fine with me now that i have talked to him. he told me to expect all the final details with shipping, and payments and all that to be ironed out by the end of the month. I'm really really hoping they get the kits shipped out in february, and from the way it sounds, it could be a very good possibility. he also told me there are no new problems or delays, which is definitely good, they are just waiting on the rest of the outsourced parts. obviously they will be shipping out the kits in the order you signed up for the group by, and also in the order of who is fully paid. I'm fully paid, and I'm number 36 on the list, so hopefully i will be in the beginning. so it looks like we are getting one step closer to being boosted guys!

thanks again sam for taking the time out of your busy day to answer my questions!

Yea, I think the majority of the people on this group buy haven't paid anything yet. thats good for the people that have already paid though!

You guys must be really disappointed that GTM is alive and well. Ive being doing buisness with GTM for almost 10 years now.
Sam has yet to disapoint me by not getting my engine's and all the other parts that i have bought from him.
To date over $50.000.00 and i have more part being ordered soon.
Every part was sent to me in perfect working condition and it fit perfectly. There were many delays in reciveing some of the parts. Some over a year. And there was a good reason why they took forever to get to me. " beacuase he wanted them to be perfect " and if he had to make a change to improve it them he did. Eg, the stage 4 transmion. I waited a long time for it, and it was worth it. What a great product. The hold up was the converter. he explained to me that he certain parts are made by other company's and they are always late getting him the parts.
After i got the Uprev i had trouble geting it to work. he spent 1 hour with me on the PC and phone as he walked me through it.
I use GTM because he is the best and the only shop to use. Every body out there has a bad service record , some are terrible. in the aftermarket industry not every things right all the time.
He has never let me down. Has ajusted invoices for credit.
In this game it cost money to go fast and modified cars will brake.
Im not a GTM lover. i have a stillen SC on my 350z and there was lots of things that broke on it. They fixed it and i still by there products.

Thanks for the update buddy! It gets hard to find time to call at funny times of the day from over here so your post is much appreciated!

It looks like my Super Bowl prediction might still be a winner....at least I hope it is because it will give me just enough time to be ready for this.....Racewars

I remember that Sam mentioned about 100 pages back that I was near the top of the list due to paying so early. With the drop outs I must be at least top 5 by now too!

Once the kits start shipping, the installation races will be on like donkey kong! Knowing my luck, my kit will probably sit in customs for a month before they release it! After going through these delays I think that some poor customs girl would be getting a mouth full from me if that were to happen :P

Probably best to call and ask GTM for their supplier list if you want an answer to that one.

I can guess at some though, like Turbosmart and Tial BOV's coming from Turbosmart and Tial...:P
