FTO Factory Options

Post by **dstocks** » Fri Feb 29, 2008 8:51 am

Ok, here is the official group buy for those interested. I have just sent a message asking how many of each item are in stock and will post that up as soon as I find out. Basically first in gets what is available. If your name is on the list and you dont want it there, take it off (I just transferred names over from the thread in general).

Alright - pricing. First, here are the costs on top of the prices listed below:

$20 per box sent. If there are 5 items in the box it is still $20

3% paypal fees (this translates to $30 per $1000 spent)

cost to ship from Japan to Australia. . This varies depending on number of items per box , weight of box and size of box. And also whether it is sent surface mail or airmail. Bit hard to give a figure here, because it depends on how much we can group together into boxes. So, what does this mean. Well, lets consider that we can fit 5 things per box. That means each person is up for $4 on top of purchase price. If the total cost of all 5 items is $1000 (and each part cost the same - which it wont) then each person would be up for $6 to cover paypal (in reality, will calculate paypal as a percentage of purchase price). As for postage, its a bit hard to say, but a guess would be about $100 per box for air freight (this really depends on what is in it though - weigth & dimentions), which means $20 per person for postage. Surface freight greatly reduces this cost but takes longer to get here..

OK, on to the parts on offer.....

OK, heres the numbers left......

Kick plate MZ526753 0 in stock More at end of March
Rear Panel MZ570176 0 in stock TBA
FTO Emblem MZ553112 1 in stock More at end of March
FTO Emblem MZ553113 2 in stock More at end of March
CF Surround MZ526817 1 in stock More at end of March
Pedals MZ525007 (MT) 3 in stock production has been finished
Arm Rest + cup holder MZ521126 0 in stock more at end of March

The important one to note here is the manual pedals. There are 3 new ones left in existance. After these go, there will be no more!

Im tempted to grab the items in stock first and do a run of these and pick the others up later whentheyve been made.

Yeh I'm in for a set of manual pedals.

Is the FTO emblem a fill for the cut out in the rear bar mould? Cause I've got the fto symbol but its just inset from the rest of the bar if you know what I mean.

Yep, look at any picture of the back of my car for an idea of how it looks. The picture above gives some indication too. The normal bar has the fto inset into the plastic. The sticker (if you call it that) is about 1mm thick and sticks inside the inset. I quite like the look of it myself

Can I get a FTO Emblem 2 please Dwayne.

Oh and if you've still got one of the front version R stickers when my centre console comes I'll take one of those too please.

How does the rear panel connect to the car? Is red the only colour?

borntospeed · Post by **borntospeed** » Sun Mar 02, 2008 6:07 pm

are these parts really hard to source from japan?

I would like

1. CF Surround MZ526817 x 1
2. Arm Rest + cup holder MZ521126 x 1
3. FTO Emblem MZ553113 2 x 1

when would you be placing an order? sounds really exciting. i reckon buying these accessories are like buying a present for your wife. almost can see "her" grinning

I might skip the emblem but Iil definately take some pedals (MZ525007). Just pm me the details when you want me to pay.

Updated. NOTE. No more orders for pedals as there are none left in Japan (other than the 3 sets vouched for already) and they are not going to do any more. Ill try and find out how this is going to work tomorrow night, so ill post an update then. Have already ordered the pedals. Ill probably order the emblems and the CF Surround in the next day or so. For these items, will need payment prior to order, so keep watching the thread.

Dont know how it connects, but a few members have these and shoulkd be able to tell you. Would think it is something like double sided tape at a guess as there are no screw holes.

As to colour, red is it. I believe there were some aftermarket ones made by someone else at one stage that also came in blue and rainbow, but havent seen them advertised anywhere recently.

robsta · Post by **robsta** » Wed Mar 05, 2008 8:14 pm

any update on this?

Post by **dstocks** » Wed Mar 05, 2008 8:28 pm

ive ordered the pedals (as there are only 3 left and they are not making any more). Ill wait another couple of days and then put an order in for whatever has been asked for

FTO99R · Post by **FTO99R** » Wed Mar 05, 2008 9:19 pm

Nice, got the last set of pedals. Just send me a pm with the payment details and i'l get it to you asap.[/quote]

maggsy · Post by **maggsy** » Thu Mar 06, 2008 1:22 am

it would probrably be easier to just wait and send queenslands stuff together to one person and pickup individually from them (like what we did with the indicators), it wouls save on postage, i can wait for the armrest to get here as well, there's no point in sending 2 boxes.

would the centre console box be $50 at most ?

Post by **dstocks** » Fri Mar 07, 2008 7:33 am

Itll end up being around that landed in Australia. Might cost a bit extra to get it from Canberra to Syd (unless someone can do a shuttle run). Cant guarantee, it all depends on the postage price
