Hi to all,
Just in case a group buy is planned in a near future,
I need one of these alu race flywheel for my "high rev" 2.3 CIH,
Can I join the team please?
Thanks,
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

I'd have to have one, too. We wouldn't talk about it much, of course...

don't worry I'm blind & deaf Jeff!
;-)

 

[Hiro]

I have purchased 2 aluminum flywheels from the manufacture here in California. I believe them to be similar to the Unorthodox wheel. They are drilled for the S-10 pressure plate. I believe there are a few left on the last production run. They cost $400.00. They don't sell to the public but I can use my resale license to buy you one. If your interested let me know.

Thanks for your help!
I will get in touch if this group buy doesn't restart.
Hiro

I talked to the guys at Unorthodoxracing. They will build me a flywheel. The only problem is they will not do a set up and make less than 6 of them. Looks like I will have 5 to sell. Who wants one? What you guys don't want goes to E Bay:ugh:

what is the price for one?
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

The E mail I got from thel last week said the price will be $325.00 each Plus shipping. So I will sell them to this sight for the same plus all shipping and insurance cost. I am gong to give them a call Monday.

that's a very good price!
I'm OK for one flywheel.
should I get in touch with them to arrange shipping to my location (I'm in Europe)?
thanks,
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

4 are spoken for as of right now. I only have 1 more to sell. I am keeping the last one

I'm just back home,
you have PM for the last flywheel,
thanks,
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

I also missed the first run of 6 flywheels,
If there is a second run I would like to buy one please.
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

Ok for the record. I gave $325.00 each for 6 flywheels. Shipping to my house for all 6 was $75.00 I now have $337.50 in each flywheel. I am keeping one, the other 5 will go to you guys that spoke up. It was first come first serve. The selling price is $337.50 plus shipping. This is a break even deal for me. They are good looking ain't they?

nice pizza!
;-)

 

[Hiro]

I have another buy in progress, and if all goes according to plan I will have 8 more flywheels available for sale. PLEASE do not PM me or post requests at this time until I get final details in place. It's possible they could be ready by Carlisle - I will hopefully know later today.

Todd

whao that's a super news Todd!

 

[Hiro]

Please let Hiro be the second on your list. He was 7th on the last list of 6.

Harold

thanks Harold!

 

[Hiro]

OK, I placed the order today and will have 8 for sale. I'll try to post an ad in the classifieds to stay within forum rules, but if all else fails I'll post here (with Gary's permission). There are some remaining issues to get resolved before I'll know the final costs and dates (main issue - they have to source more ring gears). Keep an eye out!

Todd

I'll stay awake for a while,
but time difference between USA & Europe is a problem for me!

 

[Hiro]

Hiro, you're covered...
You can go to bed now.
I will have 7 remaining for sale (unless you want more than one?):lmao:

Todd

thanks a lot Todd!
more than one flywheel... hum that's very tempting,
but I'm not sure my bank account will survive!
see you tomorrow,
maybe I will rob a french bank tonight!
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

OK...Ad has been placed here. Pricing is currently set at $365 plus your shipping. I don't expect the price will change, but keep in mind they are sourcing new ring gears. If they come back saying it's significantly higher (say, $15) then I'll restart the process. The price is a little higher than the previous buy because I need to cushion interest on nearly $3500 (I'm assuming I won't have everyone's payment by the end of my 30 day billing cycle, plus the order may take 4 weeks to fill).

I'm looking for committments to buy - NO NEED TO SEND MONEY AT THIS TIME!

If the order size needs to be increased, I'll check into it but I need to know ASAP. As the ad points out, PM me with your order request and I'll post the results here when the order is closed.

HOPEFULLY I can bring some of these to Carlisle if anyone going to the show places an order.

Cheers,
Todd K.

I'm OK with this price range,
and I totally agree to participate to cushionning interest,
I know the group buy is not an easy financial affair!
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

Any takers on the one remaining unit?

Todd

OK Todd I'm taking this last one,
So that's two flywheels I pay to you.
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

All 10 flywheels are spoken for at this time. If I have cancellations I'll let everyone know. I already have one member in que in case someone wants to cancel. Thanks to everyone who has participated!

Todd

Todd when should I send the money?

 

[Hiro]

Now! - or Bob will end up with both your flywheels !!

(Sorry, Hiro - just my warpped sense of humour! )

Glad to see you are getting a couple of these flywheels - it will make your racing much safer!

I must say during a few seconds I wondered if I've missed some critical step in this group buy!
:haha:

 

[Hiro]

Flywheels arrived today. They're beauties!
I've PM'd all those that chimed in as I need your address for shipping calculations. By the way, if anyone knows of a good flat rate for domestic shipping for something like this, I'm all ears. If there are any cancellations I'll post here.

Todd K.

Superb!
That's my Xmas present hum a little bit early this year,
Thanks Todd!

 

[Hiro]

Hello Ears! Todd, try this company: Parcel2go.com - Online Parcel Delivery Service
They ship both US Domestically and Internationally. Baz put me on to them and they shipped a couple of parts from the UK to NZ for me at a better rate than the Post Office, FedEx or UPS. Their service is door to door and quick!

HTH

too bad they don't work from France,
I have to find a way to ship a CIH4 crank to the US east coast...

 

[Hiro]

that's only 1.6mm more on the periphery so I'm not worried at all,
anyway my race disks are custom made,
so it's not a problem to have them done the exact size.
Hiro

 

[Hiro]

My two flywheels arrived today,
Superb parts, safe & fast shipment, no custom fee, perfect!
Thanks again Todd for letting me participate to your group buy!
Hiro
