RB SWAYBARS GB interest?

Hey all you Vancouver/Toronto dudes..

are you all interested in the Racing Beat front and rear sway bars?

Before my 8 i came from a Mazda MP3 which was tuned by Racing Beat and had all their goodies on it ( springs, sway bars etc ) and it handled like a DREAM! Listed top 10 handling cars in the world by Road and Track going up against the likes of Ferrari 360 Mondena, Lotus Elise, Mistu Lancer EVO, M3... etc

So im more than convinced that RB makes top notch products........let me clarify that i am in no way associated with RB but im just a supporter of their products and i would like to see what the interest is like from you Vancouver/TO ppl so maybe we can see if we can organize a GB of some sort so we can all get a better price and save on shipping and taxes/duties.

Post up and let me know what you guys think.

LIST price on RB's website :

Front Swaybar - 179 usd
Rear Swaybar - 155 usd
oil cooler screens - 38 usd

these prices does not include shipping i believe.







Swaybars and screens are both easy enough for self-installation with the right tools as they come with full instructions booklet with step by step pictures.

and for all of the Vancouver dudes we can all do the install together!

Hitman : try to find out the prices of the oil cooler screens and front and rear swaybars at that place in Langley and tell us....

for those of you interested hold your horses tho...

wait till Hitman come back with the prices first.... because im pretty sure if we can hook up a GB the prices will be cheaper than getting it at the shops

Well, I'm not in Vancouver or Toronto, but I would be in for the Oil Cooler screens.
I've already picked enough "stuff" out them them that I don't need any more convincing.

Went to Rotary Performance in Langley on Friday. Nice bunch of guys...hadn't seen an 8 up close so they were checking mine out. They have no stock on RB Stuff, and they order as you need it. They don't get much of a discount from RB, so the pring that you pay will be very similar to ordering it yourself from RB. I decided to order it to my mail drop in Blaine, to save me the brokerage fees and markups from the brokers.
