As for questions about payment. I'd prefer this Paypal SendMoney Method, but I'm happy with bank account as well. Which ever you are comfortable with. I will provide address and phone number when it comes time to pay up. But for now I'll do some more research on prices etc. before we go to much further.

If anyone can offer some advice for a successful group buy, I'll like to here it. Forum Staff?

Interested.

I had a look at these last night.

The only thing to be aware of is that you have to drill holes to install these.

I also couldnt find an installation manual for the Gen 2, but they may just not have posted it on their site yet.

I definately want a set for the MPS6 the Quiklift Plus as they are black

Emailed Redline Tuning today. Hopefully some from them tomorrow.

Not seeing a lot of interest though guys!!??

Hopefully they come up with a decent discount.

Got in touch with Brian from Red Line Tuning. He's on holidays till the weekend but he can tell me that disounts start once we hit 20 and then 30, 40 etc.

I'm thinking of extending this group buy to OzMazdaClub.com to get more numbers.

Will be in touch once I know more.

This requires you to drill into the metal of the car doesn't it?

Below is a quote from the website. Looks like there is some drilling...seriously not a big deal.

MOUNTING HARDWARE
Steel rivets and hardened steel self-tapping screws

The Redline ones may require drilling, but are probably the best struts on the market.
