New Idea!

[Addissimo]

It doesn't come with tranny bushings-

If we can get 10 or more people to order poly bushings from ireland, we get 15% off of $80 for a set, so about $70.

Keep in mind this will require drilling and tapping a hole for which ever mounts you decide to use.

If we get a group buy going on the mounts, I'm willing to do the labor on this for a small fee (probably like $5 or something)

I'm down. just let me know when. thanks. does this come with the tranny bushings? i'm guessing it doesn't, if so what bushing is the best to use?

I'm down man. Thanks for doing all of the research on this. Your E30 community is very grateful. :)

with 20 they go down to $61 each shipped to me.

I've been reallly busy as of late, so I haven't been able to get even to the post office to mail the template to stu.

The plus to this: I've been making alot of money, and the next month or so, I'll be making even more, so I'll probably be able to buy 10 myself, just to have for when people need/want them.

Once you get above 15 pieces, the price doesnt change all that much with the quantity you order. 20 pieces is $61, 40 pieces is $55, while 15 pieces is $65... not a big price difference. If we can get around 8-9 people in on this, i'll get them for around 63-64 (after I buy 11 [1 for me, 10 for stock])

I don't forsee this happening before the new year though. maybe mid jan.

What does everybody think?

Have you contacted Peter McHenry? maybe since he does these he will sell the tranny mount to you.

[Kilomph]

If I had spare money, i'd buy a couple, but i'm broke, so just 1. Once he has tested it, and it works out, we could easily get 10+.

Any idea on cost if we got 15-20?

[02stu]

I'm still down for ordering the mount, so thats two of us. Kilomph how many were you thinking of ordering? Addissimo is probley still in, I'll pm him about it. We still need to confirm that his design will work.

[Kilomph]

I'm FOR SURE in on this. If anybody has some extra cash, it'd probably be smart to order a couple extra, M/S 50/52 swaps will be going on forever, so these will always be in demand. Plus i'd get a better deal ;)

[christoble]

any updates?

[02stu]

Addissimo, hows the mount going. I have my engine and tranny in, so I could check the fit if you want.

[JPL]

i will take one. even though my swap is a very long time from now

[joshh]

Sorry, I meant the Motor mounts. He's just started on them.

[Addissimo]

It's at least the same for the Urethane mounts.

wait...
what?

[joshh]

It's at least the same for the Urethane mounts.

[Addissimo]

not asap unfortunately- build time is 25 business days from the time i submit the design.

It depends how long it takes Brew and I to get it done.

at a quantity of 10- it'll cost an extra $5 each to get them done in 20 business days... which isn't bad... but you're still at least a month out.
