Ok folks,
I've been in contact with Regal autosport about organising a group buy on Wavetrac differentials.

They are willing to accommodate us but I need to get an idea on quantity and what diff's we'll need so the appropriate discount can be calculated.

VAG range application list <<please check the link and add your name and which diff you'll need. Regal is also willing to offer us good prices on the ARP bolts/fitting kits we'll need.

I know most people will be interested dependent on price and that's fine, just don't be expecting to get it for nothing.
Once we have rough numbers I'll be able to negotiate pricing with them.

1. J-GTi 02A

1. J-GTi 02A
2. bpm 02A (price dependent)

Forgot to mention once I have an idea on quantity's I'll be getting prices on quaife and peloquin from other suppliers too just to let everyone see/decide where we'll be getting the best value.

Only reason I've gone with regal so far is they've been the most accommodating and the fact that I've heard great things about the wavetrac's.

3. Neilo 02J plus fitting kit (price dependent)
4. Daveslp 02J plus fitting kit.

I was more interested in a Quaife (or equivilant) Torque sensing diff . Are these diffs just and an open or full lock? i didnt pickup on it from the site

Regal are pricey enough compared to the US price aren't they. Be interesting to see what discount they come back with.
The other ones I was looking at were the Kaaz and plated one from Bildon

Bildon also do wavetrac bildon

I've been chatting to another crowd that does quaife (thanks Bernard), these work out fairly cheap from the states the only worry would be the import duty.

Here is what he quoted anyway

1-4 LSD: $694.95
5-9 LSD: $20 off each = $674.95
10+ LSD: $40 off each = $654.95

Plus around $90 each for shipping.

QUOTE (Neilo @ Nov 15 2010, 09:10 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>I bought parts on UK group buys before and discounts were 15-20% off retail, more if buying direct from the manufacturer.

Sorry, I didn't word that right, what I mean is when you look at the likes of mjmautohaus charging $824 maybe the above company that I got the price from doesn't have as much margin on them. That's already a fair difference in price IMO.

I am still in talks with a good few companys so anyone that manages to beat previous prices will be posted on this thread.

QUOTE (Gavrs @ Nov 15 2010, 07:52 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>@J-GTI any idea what the duty would be?

It usually works out at 21% VAT plus import duty, so 30% of the cost is roughly how much it is to bring it in

Ya his spot on, I got a Perlequin 02M on off him, think it worked out at €700ish but the Perlequin ones include fitting kits. Talk to him about the customs situation too!

Ok lads, Might look into getting this going now, just want to confirm that everyone is still interested?

Just to remind everyone

Peloquin's are whatever price they are listed on the site at, but that will include all shipping charges to Ireland >> http://peloquins.com/products.html

Quaife's
1-4 LSD: regular price of $694.95
5-9 LSD: $20 off each = $674.95
10+ LSD: $40 off each = $654.95

+ around $90 shipping each, plus fitting kit

Wavetrac, I'll get onto regal again this week and thrash out some figures with him.

Any questions just ask.

Are fitting kits included with them?
