I just bought one the 1" bore master cylinders. Arrived today, coupled with my UAS big brake kit she's gonna haul up even harder now! :D

Im putting it in on Saturday, so I'll do a DIY including brake bleeding as well :wink:

Strangely enough, it's substantially bigger in overall size than the GPX unit (which is 15/16" bore) which I find a bit odd as its only the internal bore size thats changed.... by 1/16 of an inch!

"Something"


But yeah, you're right... very quiet! How far along is this/what sort of time scale we looking at Sam?

Guessing the Extractors would be around the $500 mark?

I have sent an email to the Qld Coordinator as a PDF File with pricing for all our FTO products as part of the group buy.

In Order for this to happen, I would need to see a minimun of 10 individual orders otherwise I would not be making any money out of this.

Prices do not include freight, and core charge prices have been added where applicable.

Shipping prices will vary according to each location. At this stage this group buy will remain open until the origonal motor job is completed and ready to ship out. At that stage no more new orders will be accepted, but any orders not yet completed will be honoured (In reference to where some of our exchange items do not cover the number of orders example short shifter kits, throttle bodies etc).

For those ready to start ordering, place your orders through our online website store, and make a note at the base of the order, to the Australian FTO Group Buy. We will then set the price accordingly by the pricing offered. You will be advised of shipping costs at the time.

For those wanting to wait and ship there items over at the same time as the motor being built, in a single large shipment, that can also be arranged.

IF you have any further questions let me know.

So how much for each part? $247.50 for 1 mount? :?

Posted: Wed Jul 04, 2007 8:59 pm
by FtoSam
YEp... $247.50 per mount, but you will get $100 of that back when u send them back your old ones... they have to be done on exhange basis.

Keep in mind i have spare engine mounts... that i can donate to help out here...

Posted: Wed Jul 04, 2007 9:03 pm
by oodLes
Oh okay so like, are you sending yours to them first, they make the moulds and send the poly's to us, then if we want $100 back we send the old one after they've been fitted? Or we send our ones straight away?

Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2007 12:06 am
by FtoSam
Normally they send u the premade ones they have.. Then when u give them your old ones they refund you the Core Charge. However I have a set of engine mounts i can supply so as we can get more than one set going at a time..
