Group buy 180sx kouki Taillights

[drift freaq]

ok guys here goes. This a group buy on 180sx Kouki taillights ya the cool round ones. Taillights are complete new in box, both sides, center panel, lower garnish and lock and key. Need 10 min. to make this price happen $450 shipped to almost anywhere in the U.S. canada and Puerto Rico :bow
excluding Hawaii

[exitspeed]

not to be a hater but...http://www.optionimports.com/18kotaliset.html

[SilviaDriver]

yea..id pay the extra 25 bucks instead of having to wait for 10 people

[damesta]

:stupid: No crap, I'd definitly be down with a GB on the kouki tails but 500.00 shipped isn't really a good price. I can get that price, maybe even a little cheaper, anyday from a few other websites that I'll let remain nameless.

[drift freaq]

ok for all the haters and people who called me an asshole just because I was defending myself . I am proving I am not an asshole check the new group buy price $450 shipped and $440 for local pickup in socal.

[TangyXTC]

:) great deal! :naughtyd:

[Yoshi]

do you f*ckers read rules?

If you don't have anything nice to say don't say $HIT.

Seriously, if there's one problem I have on this forum, it's all the f*cking whiners!!!! JESUS! People post group buys of their own volition, basically offering the rest of us a chance to follow suit on savings they've found/made... if you god damn cheap ass people wanna bitch, do it in PM or to your dog, or inflatable girlfriend or whatever.
Just not here.

[MadScientist]

a-men brutha

[reccakun08]

pics of whats coming in the package. what kind of center piece is it?

[drift freaq]

people this is a very big special group buy. The lower price I put is going to be a one time only deal. i.e. get in on this now because its not going to last.

[drift freaq]

its the factory kit , your center piece is the stock black one , you are not going to get the carbon fiber rps13 overlay one for this price. Pics are really not all that necessary seeing as you all know what a brand new set of Kouki tails look like.

[Drift101]

oh SNAPS... 450 shipped? now THAT is a f*cking deal!!!!!
i dont have to pay tax do i? and where is your shopped located? if i pay by cash, no need for tax right?

[stp9154]

Great deal. Would be saving at least 50 bucks on this. The box is hugh, shipping would be $$$. $440 shipped, what a deal. I bought mine already, would have definitely join the GB. I'll ask my friends see if any of them would be interested. How to pay; paypal, check, money order, cc, etc??

[FRpilot]

$440 shipped, what a deal.

$440 pickup. $450 shipped.

[drift freaq]

paypal is fine or U.S. postal money order, actually postal money order is good because then there is no 3% paypal fee but I will do paypal. I am in socal and the price includes tax so do not even worry about that.

[drift freaq]

by the way when mark turned on my vendor capability yesterday it disabled my pm by accident so if you guys can contact me in email to expedite this it would be cool. [email protected]

[NinjaGaiden]

I'm in the process of ordering some right now. If I can cancel my current order, I'm definitely in on this deal.

I'll let you knwo for sure soon.


EDIT:

OK, I'm in on this deal.

[drift freaq]

oh SNAPS... 450 shipped? now THAT is a f*cking deal!!!!!
i dont have to pay tax do i? and where is your shopped located? if i pay by cash, no need for tax right?
Los Angeles and I do travel to the bay area. yes the tax is already included in this price. Oh by the way West fixed my pm it works now if you need to pm me .
so it looks like we have two or three people already down. lets make this happen folks lets try and set a deadline for the end of next week that would be the 23rd. If it happens sooner all the better. That means you all get your taillights sooner.
Dave

[Drift101]

yeah, im in on this too! put me on the list

Jus so you guys know i wasn't tryin to talk shit. I was was mearly letting him know of another place selling them for almost his GB price in hopes to get an even better price. :fawk:

actually I wasn't referring to you when I wrote that Exitspeed, no worries.

[kingsol]

is there any way you can extend this to the 30th?

[drift freaq]

not to be a hater but...http://www.optionimports.com/18kotaliset.html

I saw your public apology exitspeed, you missed something very critical though. you violated forum rules and rules of etiquite by posting a link to optionimports in my group buy . Thats just wrong. If you are not happy with the price then you should contact the vendor in private via email or pm but not publicly try to drestroy their thread which is what your posting of the link had the potential to do .

[drift freaq]

is there any way you can extend this to the 30th?
kingsol we might just be able to do that.

[kingsol]

cool, if so, count me in

[NinjaGaiden]

you said you travel to the bay area? Would we be able to pick it up in the bay area?

[FRpilot]

im wondering the same. i met you a long time ago dave. at that milpitas golfland meet like 2 yrs ago. haha i dont think you remember me. anyways, yea i mght be down for 2 sets if you can bring them up to the bay?

[drift freaq]

ok guys yes I can probably arrange a delivery trip to the bay area . So far there are 5 in if I make the delivery to the bay area. I will have to work out the shipping for you bay area guys. it will have to cover renting the uhaul truck and gas but it overall will probably come out to about $35 each set. for delivery

[Drift101]

35 additional for the bay area pick as opposed to 10 dollars addtional.
so it would be 475 picked up in the bay or 450 shipped. I don't think it would make sense, cause I am assuming that if you made a trip here, we would be able to get it for 440 even..... it just makes sense to gofor the 450.00. too much of a hassle if you rent a u-haul and stuff to come up here.

[NinjaGaiden]

ok, that's cool. I like $450 shipped better =D

[drift freaq]

hahahaha you guys misunderstood . I was trying to figure out a fee for delivery and I did not mean to add it to the $450. I will have to talk with my partner tomorrow and see If I can do a delivery to the bay area at the $440 price does that sound fair to you guys? :D

[slammedS13]

I may be in on the 440 to the bay area.

[drift freaq]

I may be in on the 440 to the bay area.
cool lets hope you are . At this rate the 10 minimum is going to be done by all bay area peeps. come you on bay area guys bring it home in force!:D

[MisfitFlesh]

how would this work out if i wanted to go pick em up?

[drift freaq]

how would this work out if i wanted to go pick em up?
you could pick them up directly from me. at this rate I think we are going to be able to roll this deal as soon as monday i.e. we almost have the 10 minimum once we hit it that the deal will open up to everyone as they come. I will keep the deal open til the 30th for kingsols sake.

[drift freaq]

heads up to the bay area guys there are enough of you that I will be making a delivery run to the bay area next weekend if you guys can all get it together before then. I have to take a SR up anyways so this would all work out well.

[srpwrd]

does the $450 shipped include shipping to canada?

[sykikchimp]

I'm interested.. Do I just paypal you the money?

[drift freaq]

does the $450 shipped include shipping to canada?
$20 extra for canada

[drift freaq]

I'm interested.. Do I just paypal you the money?
yes sykik, my paypal is the same as my email address.

[vsiev]

pm me or give me an email on where you are located so i can come pick them up from ya.

[MisfitFlesh]

Picked up my lights last night, ahh man are they lovely. Ill be putting them in tonight so hopefully i can find a camera to take pics with. Thanks a lot man.

[srpwrd]

so $470 shipped to canada.. can you please e-mail me [email protected] for more info on how I can send you the cash.

thanks alot

[FRpilot]

so for us norcal guys. do we hand you cash when you come up here or what's going on? when are you bringing the sr up here?

[drift freaq]

so for us norcal guys. do we hand you cash when you come up here or what's going on? when are you bringing the sr up here?
norcal guys are getting the socal price and I will deliver them as soon as you all are rounded up. so it will most likely be next week sometime. as far as payment for you guys go its upfront , gus is already sending his payment off to me. You guys can send Postal money orders so you do not have to pay pal fees too.
p.m. I will drop the address info and my cell on you.

[kingsol]

so can we just pay you in person, or do you want the money before you get down here? and i know this is kinda OT, but what's up with the tranny?

[drift freaq]

so can we just pay you in person, or do you want the money before you get down here? and i know this is kinda OT, but what's up with the tranny?
money before I come up. Oh and the tranny send me your phone number I will call you.

[zaneithan]

how long is this going on for?

[drift freaq]

its running through the end of the month but if there is more demand I might extend it.

[zaneithan]

id be interested, but i think i would need more then then until the end of the month =\

[phatkorean]

I'm interested but I have a few questions. How easy is it to install this assembly? Is it DOT approved? Does it use the stock light blubs? When is the expected shipping date? And lastly I don't mean to insult you, but I don't know you so how can I be sure you won't take my $450 and run?

[Turboed240]

Hey...I'm interested. Wut would the price be for shipping to Akron Ohio. (44312)

[drift freaq]

I'm interested but I have a few questions. How easy is it to install this assembly? Is it DOT approved? Does it use the stock light blubs? When is the expected shipping date? And lastly I don't mean to insult you, but I don't know you so how can I be sure you won't take my $450 and run?
DOT approved? man if you are worreing about that you probably should not even be thinking about them. They were designed for the Japanese domestic market take it for what it is. The light bulbs that come with the tails are halogen and yes you can buy replacements at your local parts place, though you do have to wire these tails as the plugs they come with are different than your stock plugs. Tons of people have done this taillight conversion.
hmmm let me see use paypal and take out paypal insurance. talk to the owner of the forum who both him and his wife know me well. Talk to Mrmephistopheles who also knows me quite well. talk to Grant another moderator on the forum who knows me. Do you want a list of all the people I have done business with here? AsK Yoshi, I sold and shipped a car to washington for him. Your not insulting me . As you can see I have some pretty strong references here.
As far as shipping goes the stuff will ship as soon as I recieve your money as this group has hit its ten minimum and is officially open i.e. orders ship on payment.

P.S. for the question from the person on how much is shipping to Ohio . The shipping is already part of the purchase price i.e. $450 shipped.
thank you

[FRpilot]

dont be offended dave. there are tons of noobs running around zilvia nowadays. part of the 240 and drift craze..

[drift freaq]

naw no offense taken. though the DOT question did seem a little odd :D

[phatkorean]

So what if I'm a n00b about the cosmetics of my 240? I didn't know so I asked.

Drift craze? Is my name DriftoMasta or AE86God? Please.

You know what? Forget it, I'd rather pay the extra money to get the part from a legitimate source like the "hater" said. But good luck with selling them anyway.

Wow, dont get butt hurt. It wasnt even Dave who said it in the first place! So technically he's not "hating" on you, nor was FRpilot. FRpilot basically told Dave to expect more "noob" questions because you have to realize that the 240 scene has gotten very hyped up recently because of drifting, and a lot more "noobs" are joining the forums. All in all, no one was calling YOU a "driftomasta" or "AE85God". So...buy from Dave and get it quick and cheaper ;)

you know what? I don't know what your trip is I answered your questions and did not take offense. I did not try to insult you as you seem to be doing here. Your DOT question was odd that was not meant as a putdown and like I said if you have to be asking that question in the first place maybe these tails are not for you. As far as being a legitimate source goes, I do happen to be a legitimate source and you clearly need to shut your mouth and use your ears and eyes.
I think you owe me a apology bigtime for out of line conduct and being insulting.

forgot it aure , he lost his chance on getting in on this group buy. I did not insult him I asnwered his question and he took it all personally and mistook who said what and on top of that legitimately tried to insult me . Let him go pay the higher price . Who knows he might have been a troll? He's not getting anything from me with his attitude.

[rancid240]

I bought mine. They are nice, new and the install is like putting in a car stereo i.e. monkeys work.

[darksyde]

man dave i tried and whatnots to get money for this and the only way i see me getting this is if you still have them available mid may...if not i guess i gotta wait til next time..if there is one... :hammer:

[drift freaq]

man dave i tried and whatnots to get money for this and the only way i see me getting this is if you still have them available mid may...if not i guess i gotta wait til next time..if there is one... :hammer:
OK I am going to extend this group buy into the first week of may at least possibly till mid may. Definitely the first week though :D

OH ya and for all you bay area guys I am coming up this weekend so lets try to arrange a mini meet for sat or sun.

[FRpilot]

[drift freaq]

[kingsol]

is there any way we can meet up somewhere in san francisco? my car isn't running (no tranny) and it'll be a lot easier for me to borrow a car and pick up somewhere in sf rather than in san jose.

[FRpilot]

im with drift freaq. someone between palo alto and san jose sounds nice.

[drift freaq]

Donavan, due to the fact that your stuck in the city . I could roll up there to drop your tranny and taillights . You got my cell call me . As far as everyone else goes I will meet them in the Palo Alto -San Jose area. Kenny you got my cell give me a ring on sat morning does stanford shopping center work for you guys around 1 on the backside by sandhill rd. sound good.

[NinjaGaiden]

[kingsol]

cool, thanks dave, i'll give you a call tonight.

[kingsol]

[MisfitFlesh]

[drift freaq]

peace!

[drift freaq]

ae86drftn pm'd you, hellion glad to be of service that goes for everyone else as well. shout to all the bay area peeps and if some you guys up there want them still, the deal still holds for the local people i.e. socal and norcal get the $10 off due to easy hookup. rest of you guys in the rest of the states still get the extremely cool price of $450 shipped.
Oh ya and watch for my adjustable rod end tc rod group buy coming in a snap $129 a set :D I will have pics of those tomorrow or friday.

[Pepperoni]

Ahh ive wanted these for a long time now :( hey Gus let me borrow em ;) hehe oh well maybe next time dave. im already interested in the tc rod group buy though :)

[drift freaq]

ok folks we are coming down to the wire here another week and this sale is going to close. so you people that have spoke up but are sitting on a fence heres your chance.

[hellion240sx]

the only prob i will see with these is the wiring situation. are there instructions for wiring them up??? because i would like to put these in myself :)
thanks again

[kingsol]

wiring is easy, just got to cut some wires... i'll post something later... it's too late right now

[hellion240sx]

wiring is easy, just got to cut some wires... i'll post something later... it's too late right now

please do so how much longer till its over cuz its almost pay day!??!?!?!

[drift freaq]

its going till at least the 20th because there is another person that gets paid that day.

[nlzmo400r]

is this still going on, or not?

[drift freaq]

is this still going on, or not?
message length
yes it is

[hellion240sx]

is there any way you can put up something about the wiring or a link that shows you how to do it?
thanks
o thanks for extending it too!

[nlzmo400r]

all u have to do is splice the usdm plugs, and solder em to the jdm ones and its basically a plug-n-play

[hellion240sx]

i am not the person to solder, i tried and failed horriblaly. i would probably set something on fire. besides how many wires are there??? oh and does it come with the 180sx panel??? should be my last question
thanks again

[nlzmo400r]

if u get, come by and ill solder em for you. There isnt many wires, perhaps 4 or 5 per light? also, it does come with teh center piece, but not hte '18oSX' panel, those came with teh chuki and zenki tailights ( the ones that look basically like the 24o's but say 18o instead of 24o

[180fan]

oh god! why don't I have money! *cries* any way to possibly extend the gb a bit longer?

[drift freaq]

ok guys time is running out get your final orders in.

[p11driver]

since this is still available, count me in!!! :D

[hellion240sx]

dead line is when?
thanks nlzmo400r, i might have to do that.
ok if i get these lights will i be able to add on the 180sx panel later????
and i will be paying with a money order, where am i sending it to??? damn very nervous. also if i get the tc rods in the other group buy can i save on shipping?
thanks again (dave right?) really,
edgardo

hey no problem edgardo, if your talking about the rps13 carbon fiber piece yes you can add it later. I sent you a PM with my addy and the money info on the TC rods. the taillights are $450 shipped. Seperate suppliers on these(taillights , tc rods) so cannot group the shipping of them.
take care , dave
oh ya and relax :) :bow:

[hellion240sx]

just the panel that says 180sx on it not the carbon fiber piece.

[nlzmo400r]

i think the panel you're thinking of (the one that looks like ours, but says 18oSX instead of 24oSX) is from the zenki/chuki jdm 18oSX's. That piece won't fit the kouki tailights. The kouki's have a different center piece that is usually body colored, OR they have the carbon fiber piece that says RPS13 (carbon fiber) and those are usually like 2oo bucks.

thank you nizmo400r , you are entirely correct. anyways folks this group buy is officially closed as of today. For all of you that got in congrats I will keep you all updated on more group buys to come.
you have all been great. dave

[nlzmo400r]
