m sprank Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 With the final shipment of DAMD wheels from the first GB arriving now, I wonder if it is time to start up another. In order to offer the great discount pricing again I would need 10 buyers. Wheels are available for 05-06, 07-09 and 2010. These are not cheap. But they are the only aftermarket wheels that use the OEM airbag and steering controls. Let me know if the interest is there for a New Years Group Buy. -Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Not so soon. Maybe summertime?

uzubair Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 What is the group buy discount? I may be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 IIRC they were only like $600 shipped or something like that. A SOLID discount from your normal vendors.

m sprank Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 Due to fluctuations in the Yen, I can not confirm pricing until a group buy is official. But last round prices were a good 20% below retail. Depending on model, as low as $500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m sprank Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 You paid GB price for yours. Plus I installed it for free. What are you complaining about? I plan on running this GB on nasioc and possibly other forums as well. No way it can wait until summer time. I want to place at least four orders a year with DAMD.

Strizzy Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Do you think you might be able to sneak some MR2 parts in with the wheels? My bad luck build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 MR2 parts from what manufacturer? I am not importing everything and anything from Japan. So far, the only brand that I see interest in that I can get is DAMD. Sorry, I am not looking to become a JDM parts source. I am not bringing containers over for Japan. I had all 15 steering wheels airfreight from Japan. Thats how they get here in 4 days once they ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Hmm, I MIGHT be in, pending the total number of people interested. If you have crazy interest on NASIOC, then the prices will probably be low enough for my budget. I'll just put rotors off until next year. So, I'm tentative but probable. 09 wheel, black, black stitch, and round.

m sprank Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 Chances are that it will take two months to get the wheels. DAMD is out of inventory. I bought it all last time. We had to wait for the last 10 wheels to be made. No matter how much interest there is the prices will not go any lower unless the Yen falls. The discount I got from DAMD last time is the largest they have ever offered. Japan does not discount. In all reality, the discount I received was in shipping (more is cheaper) not in pricing on the wheels. The last GB was AT COST! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strizzy Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 MR2 parts from DAMD. There are a few things interested in. I just figured I'd toss the idea in this thread for the possibility of including them with the shipment of the wheels. My bad luck build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 That I might be able to do. Shoot me a PM with what you are interested in. I have every DAMD catalog from 2006 or so up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssbtech Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 I'm not familiar with the 05 version of the wheel. I don't have any radio or shift buttons on my wheel (just the cruise lever), are they available "buttonless"? Any photos of the 05 wheel? thanks!

I don't have any radio or shift buttons on my wheel (just the cruise lever), are they available "buttonless"? Any photos of the 05 wheel? thanks! I was on the same kind of standard '05 LGT MOMO steering wheel. No buttons, nada. I'll snap a picture of my ultra-dirty interior for you. Yes, these are available "button-less," and DAMD/Prova specifically makes them that way to accommodate the various iterations/revisions of the BL/BP chassis. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
