Group buy qualife LSD? Opinions...

Okay

So this is just a starting point for something to do in the new year but I was thinking today that we should get a group buy on the Qualife LSD's and see what sort of price we can get....

I'm going to try and get in touch with a couple distributors on this but just show some interest please so i have something to back myself up with when I speak to them

Tempting, but will still be pricey. Glad I don't have MT, so I have an excuse to pass

talk to the guys at Evolution Racewerks; I'm planning on buying from them anyways, but if you can get a group buy going it may be better for all. I support them, cause they're pretty stand up people.

My purchasing period was late Jan to Mid Feb, so if the group buy lands around those dates, I'll be in.

I was hoping to get it going early feb and have it all planned out and deposits made in january, going to start calling around early next week. I think we need 10 to 15 people to make it worth the purchase.

Hoping that we can make it work for auto and manual people

ER, HPA, or BR racing would be ideal

Going to get this going on monday and hopefully have it started in january with deposits, with the full order going in EARLY February.

We should do full pumpkins with core exchange correct?

I'm assuming no one wants to buy it and have it all installed by their own reputable workshop?

I just noticed that this is for the Qualife LSD.. which is fine, but I'd rather have the Wavetrac, not sure if the group buy will honor both.. Wavetrac seems like a much better deal..

Either way keep us updated.

If the price is right, the Qualife is probably better quality, so I'm still interested in seeing what happens.

What would probably be the best is contact all the vendors and see what they can for prices on all the different options. Whether it be core exchange or just purchase of entire unit so we can keep our stock one. For me, keeping my stock one is of course a better option because then if/when I go to sell my car I would be able to recoup some of the cost of the LSD. I'm having a hell of a time selling my run-flats, so I'd imagine trying to find someone local that would go to a shop with me to swap diff's is fairly slim. Just my thoughts.
