Alex - No I'm dealing direct. I've no problem going with what we have I now get wholesale prices on whatever we order

Give me a few days to get some payment details sorted out and we'll get things moving.

Nice one Danny!


PS: seen these D2 and K-Sport 8-pots... £700... you get what you pay for and its not worth pinching pennies on something as important as brakes! Spend the extra and go with a brand you can trust and you know has had extensive testing - not a cheap knock off! Its your life you're gambling with at the end of the day!

Wilwood High Performance Brake Pads
Hi
If anyone is interested EBC do a pad for this caliper in Yellowstuff, DP4007.
I have Yellows in my own AP 6 pots, and if the Willwoods are as good, you will be impressed with the pad performance.

Redstuff Ceramic are also available but recommended for Road use only.

:: EBC Brakes Direct Limited ::

DP3007C and DP4007 (Click link above for these part numbers)

Buck

EBC PART NUMBERS ABOVE ARE NOT CORRECT. THE WILLWOOD SUPPLIED TECHNICAL DIAGRAM IS NOT CORRECT FOR THIS CALIPER.

***CORRECT PART NUMBERS BELOW***
I have spoken to EBC's technical guys and they think that it should be DP4037 Yellowstuff or DP3037C if you want Redstuff.
Both are here:
:: EBC Brakes Direct Limited ::
Pad diagram is here:
:: EBC :: Product Diagram ::
138mm EBC measure include the two hooks left and right. 71mm height is not correct. It is 62mm.
Recommend Yellows for track and road, Reds for road only.
If you do order online please state that you have seen the tech diagram, mark it FAO Buck and 62mm height then I will inspect the pads before sending them.
Regards
Buck

great price on those pads too, tempted to get a set just to try them out.
Do you do a set for the 4 pot rears as well?

I was surprised at the pricing as well!

If you can get me a technical drawing from the Willwood web site of the rear pads I can try and find a match.

I paid $2590 for exactly that set to gruppe-S a few months back now, including shipping to the UK for just a single set in black. So if that price includes shipping, then its a good one. Just be aware that the front 6 pots are advertised as 'billet superlite' in some places whilst they are 'dynalite' only in others with 'superlite' being an expensive option.

Bear in mind I'm almost certain aluminium fron calipers are a cost option with scoobytuner. The only reason they dont give you that option on the front/back kit is that the rears are not made from aluminium. If in doubt try just putting a front set through, the ally is a cost option. Still a good price if shipping is £90, just make sure your comparing apples with apples before parting with your cash.

Here's the email I've just got back from ScoobyTuner.

Michael,

Unfortunately we cannot get away from the import duty. As far as the fees, you would have to check with your local post office to get the dollar amount.
If you are looking into a group buy as well, we can take another $50 off, which would be 2049.95, but we would need a commitment of at least
5 kits total.
Also looking into the freight situation, shipping it USPS it would be
$175 for each package and shipping DHL would be $185-190. There would be two boxes each, weighing in at about 47 lbs. Let me know if there is anything else I can help with.

Thanks,
Clayton

So if you get 5 sets the total cost (including getting stung for VAT) would be £1410?

Seems like the only time I post on here is to appologise for the delay in getting this off the ground.

I'd still like to go for it but realistically I won't have the time (moving house next week). I've asked Andy (the guy who helped me with the first group buy) to take over. He's happy to help and has promised to get final prices and payment details up ASAP.

Forget about going through the US dealers. Once you've included postage and import duty I garentee you won't get it any cheaper than we've been offered.

Right Danny has asked me to take over this group buy.

The prices are as follows including stainless lines

Front £900
Rear £450
delivery will be £60 per box to your door no EXTRA costs

so total for
Front and rear is £1470

You also have options of
Aluminium billet calipers At an extra £60
Red Calipers £110 (rip off)
Slotted and drilled discs £65

Payment methods pay pal will be accepted but to cover costs will need extra 3.4% if anybody can think of alternative more than happy.
I will place the order provided all money has been received on the 31/10/06 so you should definetly have brakes before xmas as we are using a different company for delivery.

Any questions please ask

Are those added options prices per front & rear set?

...or if you just go for front say brakes, then red caliper option is half of £110?

I'm thinking of going for front & rears with all added options... am I right in thinking total price will be: £1705 delivered?
