MFactory LSD group buy discussion thread

Lead time as in 4-6 weeks to figure it out? Or 4-6 weeks until we have it?

[MFactory]

Around 4-6 weeks till they are ready to ship out

[therieldeal]

Okay guys, we've tested out the axle stubs with the oem diffs that we were sent, and all of them have a similar amount of play to the sample diffs that were sent to Jon/bpt. Not surprising, considering the sample fitments were based 100% on the oem diffs we were sent.

This just basically confirms my suspicions that the Mazda/Ford OEM tolerances are not really up to scratch (in terms of consistency)

We will see what we can do to minimize the axle play, but please be aware that there will still be some with the final production unit. This will not affect function nor performance though. Lead time will be approx. 4-6 weeks from now.

I will email everyone that is part of the group buy to collect the remainder of any funds due

When i get home this evening i'll send out some mass PM's as well. Sounds great!

[marco]

and their was much rejoice Paid the rest just now. Should be a sweet pick me up from when I get from USA :D

[ZX2guy19]

Finished off...sent the last $75. Thanks.

[fremast]

Sorry for the delay... I don't get to check in as often as I'd like these days.

I'm all paid up now too.

Thanks to all who put in the ton of effort required to make this happen!
I can't wait to get it in the car.

Countdown has begun

Can't wait to get my rice-rocket on the street

^ please PM me what fender flares you used

[willkill]

sent in my final payment =)

[ZX2guy19]

NO chance of having this June 19th?

[willkill]

once all the LSD r ready to ship, would we(everyone that is paid in full) have to wait for all the final payments get in before you start shipping?

[MFactory]

That's a tricky one to answer. As you know, this is a custom product, so we've had to invest into the tooling to manufacture this LSD and without you guys needing to pay the full amount. In this respect, yes, we would very much like for everyone to be paid up by the time the LSD's are ready to ship. I'm sure most of you would understand this point.

However, I also understand that it is not fair to those who are timely with their payments, and having to wait for those who do not pay in time.

So, it's kind of a Catch 22 situation for us

[KaleoXtreme]

Yeah, that is tricky... Would it be possible to start shipping out once 10 people are paid up (for either 26 or 28) as this was the minimum group buy number?

Is there a deadline for final payments?
