Default now hold on a minute

you guys are actin like im a newbe or somethin. i build race cars professionaly. have been for years. like i said before.. IM NOT SELLING ANYTHING TO YOU RIGHT NOW!!!!!! all im trying to do is see if theres enough DEMAND for these type of parts for myself and our company to manufacture these parts/ kits. if you interested, then tell me. dont sit here and tell me about your hard earned green.
For those of you that are curious..... we manufacture hard core race/ street parts and kits... i.e. superchargers, turbos, gears (differential and tranny), along with full chassis, back-halves and suspension. just to name some. if any one knows who Rossler transmision is, those gears are ours. we do r/d for powerdyne, tubonetics, greddy, and many others. our website is www.theracecarfactory.com.
the parts im talking about for our beautiful MA70's include full bolt in chro-moly subframe replacements for the factory stamped steel peices. the control arms that come with these are also crho-moly with full hiem-joint ends. 100% stonger and stiffer. which can also be purchased seperatly from the subframes.( both front and rear are covered.) full kit is about $2800. the control arms (seperate)are $300 per set(front or rear)
next would be carbon fiber parts. full doors-$800 each, hoods 850, hatches900, door skins 350, and targas for about 1200(stucture=$)
turbo manifolds. benifits of cast iron- fast spool because it holds heat. benifits of stainless- because it hols heat AND its non-corrosive.. combine the two with a cast- stainless manifold- $650-900...depending on flange type. sheet metal aluminum intakes for about 600. 80 mm throttle boddies with no emission b/s for 750-800. cold airs for about 150 bucks(under the fender)
and how about a vader styled body kit. normal pricing but not like anything before.. think acura integra vader kit meets supra.
and finally how many of you tried to find a big brake kit and turned up anything?. exactly. im takin like 12" fronts.6 piston or even 4. now the brakes i havent made to perfection(retail worthy) so youll have to wait for a possible price.
NOW THE QUESTION IS..... IF YOU COULD BUY THEM NOW.. HOW MANY OF YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED? REMEMBER. I AM NOT TRYING TO SELL ANYTHING TO YOU RIGHT NOW. IM ONLY TRYING TO DETERMINE IF ITS WORTH WHILE FOR ME TO PRODUCE THIS STUFF. ...AND ITS NOT LOOKIN GOOD FOR YOU GUYS(SORRY) BECUASE IVE HAD LIMITED INQUIRIES ABOUT IT. EITHER ONE PEOPLE ARE ONLY TRYING TO LOOK FAST.OR THEIR WORRIED IM GONNA RIP THEM OFF. IM ONLY TRYING TO GET ENOUGH PEOPLE THAT WANT THEM .
ARE WE CLEAR ABOUT THIS? I DONT WANT ANY MISUNDERSTANDINGS. I AM NOT SELLING ANYTHING TO ANYBODY ON THIS SITE!!!!!

I would probably be interested in this if you decide to produce it. I'm interested in your shop and would like to know if I could see it some time.

Your'e going to have to prostitute some things to get started man because your carbon fiber is crazy. I didn't pay that much for my supras' carbon fiber hood.

$850 for a carbon fiber hood? We need people who produce parts for our cars at a low price. Dont you think?

Yeah but our cars are more rarer , older and more of a specialty car than most other imports with cheaper parts.

Valid point Mr.W...., but that doesn't mean I should take it up the poop shoot for parts either. And as far as rarities go if there weren't thousands of them still on the road toyota wouldn't make parts for them to the extent that they do.

Well it all depends on the quality of the parts too. You can by cheaper parts and might actually last you a while but usally cheaper the parts the lower the quality. I know going to auto zone and buying parts is always a pain in the ass because since my cars a supra I have to pay double the price for parts on other domestic or import cars. I guess what im saying is it can be costly to run our cars and definatley costly to do reliable performance upgrades. You can buy ebay parts but they will most likely be made cheaply(sometimes you do get a good deal though).

thanx mr. w. im glad someone appretiates what im trying to do. your 400 dollar "carbon" hood is actually fiberglass with a layer of c/f on top built by vis. and once again, mine is top of the line stuff. PRFORMANCE UPGRADES not for the common "iwant to look fast" cars. im trying to bring our dying breed of cars back to life AND back with a vengance to kill off whats left of these premade performance cars. of the some like wrx, fairlady's, and rx8.
