Why don't you guys try to get to him at his website? He's a sponsor/advertiser with a shop and all, so he shouldn't be too hard to reach...

Yea but when he has 5 customers here waiting for the release, we shouldn't have to track him down. He was all helpful up until 2 weeks ago. He has yet to post the video of it in action

I'm starting to get kind of worried to, I guess I'll just have to make my own mounts. (If I can just find the time)
s14, sr now fully operational, 15psi= no traction, 23psi= even less traction 
Now with a new motor that is in better shape than the last one, anyone got som 255/40/18 tires they want to sell

Everybody. My apologies for falling off for a few weeks. As some of you who know me, I am an American and a military guy for that matter. I'm based out of Bahrain. I am on the end of my time with the military, and I am retiring here in Bahrain (May 07), culminating over 20 years.I was pulled back into "the game" for a few weeks to fill in for someone in Iraq. That's all I can say. The work I do sometimes calls for "disappearing" and non-comms with outside world. Figure it out. That may make some of you uncomfortable. I can understand that. Now, I am picking up where I left off. I'll be back in town this weekend. Those who are still interested, e-mail me. I do have the links to the video shoots to get from the driver of VG240 and the other stuff. Again, apologies. Dale

So what would be the differences/what would need to be modified to your setup to fit a VG in a 180sx/Silvia?
The steering rack is in a different position, I know that. Would the install be the same or should I stash away a bit more money for unseen problems.There shouldn't be differences between JDM and USDM VG30-TT's right? I'd LOVE to get at this RB25 powered 180sx that's terrorizing EVERYONE right now

Good point... I think that it will be a better idea to wait until May when I am clear of any further obligations to Uncle Sam before I start offering anything substantial. The "no notice" calls, and no, I am not shielded from them, can happen. Also, the whole thread deal before I went up into the badlands with someone phishing me for info on this kit and getting really into the specs of how and wanting more photos of the work made me think of securing my designs before releasing it. Additionally, I will be in the USA the whole month of December. This impacts me from completing anything now and getting it shipped. I'm just playing catch up at this point. In summary, I'm gonna have to elect until this coming summer before I offerthe kit for S13, and along the way, I may be able to acquire an S14 so that I can offer it to both chassis. This all may be of a disappointment to some, but I don't think I have any choice.

I know you wanted to be the exclusive maker and seller of the kit, but you know other imitation kits will pop up following the release of your kit. I wonder if there is someone on here that would be willing to set something up with you and buy the instructions and the rights to make the kits (even in a limited number if you prefer). Just an idea that I think would benefit all of us.

If I have to wait till May I'll make my own mounts by then. If the rain doesn't set my house back. By you selling it to peopel ready to go you get customer approval and videos of running cars. Let's see the copy cats have that??? You already have eveyrone's interest and an 8page thread. Forget people asking technincal questions. Did any of the people buyign the kit sk that??
Only thign I asked for it about the driveshaft, if you can have the specs sent to the driveshaft guy you use so there won't be any fitment issues... Only thign the buyers want to see is the engine running in the car and then watch it go on the track.

hey no offense 180sxfactory i think your being a little parinoid.... you build up all this hype about releasing a kit and then rescedule the release of the kit because your affraid somone's going to steal the idea!! come on.. you see how many people DONT want to take the time in fabing a kit that is why yours generated so much intrest! i know damn well im not going to spend countless hrs fabing a kit just so i can put a vg30 in a 240.. i dont have the patience... and if your that concerned why dont you put on your website patent pending? meaning your in the process of getting it patend but not quite there yet.. and besides for people to really go out of there way to creat a kit similar to yours there would have to be a LOT of people doing the swap like the true and tired sr20 swap... and all i wanted to know is whats the new overall weight of the car with the swap compared to the ka engine and whats the balance.......
