Maybe if you talked to the vendor and found out how many they needed to give a discount and posted a link to the kit that you have in mind you'd at least have a chance at it.

Re: Kiesler kit group purchase? (SIGNGUY)
I keep thinking about it so put me on the 'interested list'. I want to convert ot a 5 speed but all the little things that are required to switch to a T5 keep bugging me. I can also drop that one in my Formula since I am not a fan of the auto trans in performance cars.

I am going to be converting my car soon enough so I would be interested if there were some "real" discount however their pricing seems a bit expensive to begin with

I'm interested in doing the conversion as well, but the timing is not real good since I want to put this in with a new stroker I want to build.
But if the "discount" is right................... :yesnod:

I ordered mine a while back and was gonna have them put it in for me. But after having to wait about a month with still more waiting, I am gonna drive over tomorrow and pick up my tranny and bring it home. I figure I have done everything else so why not do this to.

Re: Kiesler kit group purchase? (SIGNGUY)
I've been toying with the idea of converting too. And I like their kit cuz it's got everything in it, so I don't have to scrounge around for parts here and there. BUT, it's a little pricey right now, however, if the discount is right . . . :smash: I'm interested.

Maybe call Keisler and tell them your idea. If they agree to a discount they would probably require a minimum amount of purchasers. That would probably be a good start. Go for it! :thumbs: :cheers: :party:

I'd consider this as well, depending on the price of course!! Still need to do the entire front suspension and steering system too!! :eek:

Re: Kiesler kit group purchase? (SIGNGUY)
Thanks for bringing this up, I am still undecided but if we can work a group purchase with a nice discount then I am leaning towards going this route. Hope it doesn't sit in my house like the Steeriods is still doing since I bought it early this year. :)
Thanks again Signguy! :thumbs:

A member who uses my mechanic just returned his, as it was not a direct bolt-in as stated, lots of problems. I can't remember what he went with Richmond or ? but he did get his full refund. Just something to consider - I think his CF name is SAMMAN from Richmond Hill.
