And then there's postage. The gears are generally exchange but I can get sets for about AU$20 here so it will depend on how much it would cost to send yours over, and the finished gears back. If people are serious I will find out a postage cost and send you a quote on my brothers letter head but I don't think your question was a serious enquiry. Also I don't think NICOclub would a appreciate me drumming up business on the forum so the price was "just and example of who prices have changed" but if you email me it would be very close.

So the short answer is yes; if you send me US$160 and when you come to pick them up you bring your gears then you can have a set the same as the ones pictured.

I would be very interested in a quote with shipping and the cost for you to pick some up on your end(that way I can keep my cores)

those are so hot. would look real good with my motor set.

hey D_Stirls,

have you ever considered making some coil overs with vents for the CA? with the machine shop you have, I would think it wouldnt be too hard.

having "Growly Tuning CA18DET" or something...... would be cool. vents would be a huge plus as well.

seems you are the only person we have seen actually do more than have a pipe dream about making CA parts..... figured it was worth asking

PS I would love to have one like yours, but I would think the etching and such would probably be a tad expensive.

Yeah we do sell the custom coil pack covers. As you have eluded to the cost depend on the design but a basic cover will be around the AU$90-100 mark and one like mine and elaborate designs will be around AU$180-200. With the way the AU$ has jumped off a cliff over the past month now is the time to grab any parts you are after as the exchange rate today hit a 5 year low AU$1.00=US$0.61, so a cover like mine would work out to around US$110+postage.

Mine has been changed slightly (added some colour) here's the changed cover;

to keep you out of trouble. PM me some pics of a more basic coil cover(nothing too fancy...... maybe CA18DET etched at the most)

and cost shipped in USD.... O and a paypal addy.

lmk what a cam gear set + cover combined shipped might be as well and maybe I will just bite the bullet and buy both.
