The email i got( im sure you guys got it too) from charles park said they got out of the factory the 20th and they had to wait on us customs to let them pick it up or something, but that was like the 21st and nothing after that.

I wouldn't worry too much; Powertrix has run a good number of GB's so is experienced with this sort of thing.

I have the utmost confidence that Charles@powertrix (owner) will get these coils out to you guys the second they arrive (and are paid for in full, no doubt). It's difficult to say what could have come up, but it seems some sort of delay may have occurred, causing the additional wait. Keep in mind that the last update I gave referenced late August and the last email dated 8/25 did have the following text:
I've got my fingers crossed for everyone and do apologize for the delay, on behalf of Powertrix. In my experience, it is beneficial to underestimate ETA's but in the case Powertrix, I am not the one who denotes ETA's, but rather he who helps communicate the message.

Based on the info provided, there's really no reason for concern, though I can understand being anxious. If anyone has any questions or concerns, feel free to let me know. For those of you who have been around 8club for a good while - Don't worry, we aren't in another Shine FEED replica front/sides situation here, haha!

Hopefully these will come in next week before I take my vacation for 9 days... I would love to put these on for my trip up to norcal to test em out....

I've been thinking that for a few weeks now haha

I have my fingers crossed every day that these things clear!

It's sort of funny - I am neither the manufacturer nor the customer yet I'm really anxious to get these out to everyone. Your RX8's deserve better handling and ride height asap! :icon_tup:

So, let's plan a covert operation to break into customs and take the pallets loaded with our coilovers so we can get these installed. Anyone else down? :D:

I'm in!


I called Charles yesterday and he said they're sitting in a customs warehouse, they need to hurry their asses up!

At least they're here. Every passing day they sit at customs is a day closer for them to release it. :icon_tup:

I'm so down for that plan. Let me just kayak 2700 miles to Cali first, pm you when I'm there. :lol:

ok, there's definitely some lag here. Feels like it's time for an official update...

Just got the official email.

Here's the timeline right now.

1. Notification of Shipment landing – CONFIRMED
2. US Customs inspection and Release – Expected TODAY 09-12-11
3. Shipment pick up – Expected TOMORROW 09-13-11
4. Final dispersal of coilovers to individual buyers (notification of tracking numbers) 09-13-11

Stoked as fuck.

settled up tonight. Good to go.

Paid!

Can't wait to see these. Hopefully they get here before the weekend.

^+1 except I'm leaving Friday night for a 6 hour drive and work has me backed up so I won't be able to install them until I get back on the 25th :(

Oh, that reminds me!

For those of you handy with a camera - If you happen to do any photoshoots once the coilovers are installed or up for a DIY install, please post it in the media section!

As you will soon find out, these are the best coilovers in this price range so I would really love to help spread the word.

Derek - We should soon know about whether we'll be able to swap spring rates :icon_tup:

right on. i'm actually down to wait some more if it's possible to send them back in to have them swapped

If anything, we can get a set of the higher rate springs ordered for the next batch Powertrix has coming over and just swap them over when they arrive.

If they get here for install this weekend it would be f' ing awesome. Cant wait maybe i'll get a diy if i have enough time when it comes to
Install them....

Got mine paid in full as soon as I saw the email. Should be shipping from teh 14th to the 22nd according to the email I got from powertrix.

Just got another update from Charles at Powertrix.

Coilovers are shipping today, 9/14! Tracking numbers should be provided by the end of the day.
Can't wait to get these on the car...
