Hi all,

I would like to organize a group buy on this stuff:

http://www.ardtuning.com/ARD-Lightweight-pulley-1993-2009_p_30.html


As you can see RRP is 114$.I have sent an email to them about the groub buy discount,waiting for the reply.

One of my mates has it,he measured the weights:

OEM 2151gramm
ARD 499 gramm

If anyone interested,please drop me a pm.


Sorry for the wrong topic,but I cant open new thread in the for sale section.


Here is the email,i have just got from ARD:



Peter,
If you can get 10 or more folks to commit to purchase we can do a group buy for $99.00 USD each.

Combined shipping for 10 units to the UK will be $97.00 USPS Express

Let me know how that sounds and we'll be happy to help!

Be advised our current stock is out but the next run is expected in 3 weeks!

Thats a bit weak we talk about other things aswell not only cars i know jack about volvos but it does not stop me getting involved its called banter and camaraderi and willingness to learn but if you choose to not speak then you cant be surprised when people are suspect of your group buy and too be honest i thought exactly the same as frankie but he beat me to the post!...get involved mate its a laugh!

as already said, the ARD pulleys are noticably lighter than the stock ones. & the service from Lucky is second to none

If peeps are seriously interested I'm happy to coordinate like I did in 2005 for (can't remember name of supplier) for droplinks, bushes etc. imported from the US £4000+ purchase.

If memory serves prepare to pay atleast 25% on top once import tax and shipping is sorted. I'll see if I can dig out the matrix calculator to work it all out.

It's more a case of none of us know you to be fair mate. Would you hand £100+ over to someone you'd only seen post on a forum a few times?

Dont get me wrong,i understand your point.That is why i would pass it to someone who is known here and hope it makes more buyer.

Well, the purchase did go through as we did get at least the 10 people Lucky at ARD wanted to do the deal. It's amazing how light it is compared to the stock damper and as far as no damper, people have been running them on highly modified engines without any problems.
