Well I have all of the parts because I bought new ones when I installed my Hypercos so I could send out those. But what about camber adjustment for us with stock-style mounts? Any chance?
Still waiting on some parts to get done. Should be done by this week sometime. After that, I can start doing a couple of sets of fronts and rears at a time until I can pile up some cores.

Well, if you mail me your old stock mounts, I'll build them using yours and there'll be no wait (as soon as my parts are available that is).
I THINK Cusco makes camber plates for stock type springs if I'm not mistaken. Of course you could use camber bolts or slotted struts as well.
If no other plates are available, or they're ungodly expensive, then I may pursue building something for you guys.
I got the parts I was waiting for yesterday and they look good. I have enough for about 15 pairs (fronts or rears) but I only have 2 sets of cores for fronts and 1 set of rear cores (though I have some lined up but with no commit date for shipping).
I'm going to try to build a set of prototypes this weekend so I can post the pics.
So, the parts will be $125 a pair (either front or rear) including shipping and return postage for cores. Add to that a refundable $60 core charge that I will return when I receive your old parts (as long as they're in useable shape - trashed rubber parts are okay, but bent, excessively rusty, or otherwise folded, spindled, or mutilated will not be accepted).
You'll basically open the box, install the parts, put your old parts in the box, slap on the stamps included, peel off your shipping address to expose mine, and drop it in the mail.
After I get your cores back I'll either Paypal you a refund or send you a money order.
Simple as that.
The $20 a pair discount for a spare set of cores is still available, but I'll need to receive them before shipping the new parts. So, anyone who has a parts car lying around can get a pair for $85 if you can ship me the front and rear mounts soon. Of course you'd still owe me the cores from after install to get the core charge refunded.
SO, let's start an official list. Please PM me with car type and if you want front and/or rear. I'll reply to you with your place in line.
Hopefully I'll have pics to post on Monday or so...
It's hard to tell in the pic - is that really a spherical bearing in there, or is it some kind of metal sleeve? Either way, I need to figure out a way to save more money.

Scott - I won't be doing the complete suspension for my NX until early next year - Jan or Feb, when the car is off the road and I've had a chance to save up some $. Any idea on your long term availability of these?
I think I should have some still. I'll post if I get low on parts and see what kind of response I get to decide whether or not I'll have another run of parts done.
Ok - let's change it up. There's a killer GB on agx's, and with the exchange rate being as good as it is, all of this stuff is coming within range. I've got a roadtrip in late August from Winnipeg (Praries) to Vancouver (West Coast). How do your pillowball mounts affect streetability? I don't want to have an excessively harsh suspension setup for this roadtrip - so, I could get your mounts and AGX's prior to the trip and install them, or get them after - what would be your recommendation?
Really all they'll do is tighten up your damping. You'll lose some of the wallowing and small amplitude bouncing that is caused by the rubber compliance not allowing the dampers to do their job. You may notice a bit more shock noise (pssst - psshhttt) when you get suspension travel and a bit more transferred road noise, but there's always some trade-off with performance parts.
I don't suspect that they will turn a soft car into a harsh monster by any stretch.
I wouldn't worry about installing the dampers and mounts before your road trip. Should be fine. If anything, if there are any twisties along the way, you'll just end up having more fun.
All right Scott - sign me up for the front and rears, for an NX 1600. How do you accept payment, and do you have them on hand, or do you need my cores to modify?
Hey Scott,
I've been away for a while, can you shoot me your address again so I can get my B12 ones on the way to you? Do you make a camber plates for stock type springs? I think I remember hearing that you do. Let me know.
