I know Khun Ake very well, he is genuine, sincere, 100% honest and a damn good driver.

He is trying to do us all a favor at a very reasonable price. There have been many requests over the years for poly suspension bushes but with the exception of Racing's 400sterling LCA bushes no one has offered to produce anything (or dedicated the time and effort) close to what Ake is trying to do.

Ake's offer is unique in that he is offering a complete set of front LCA and rear link poly bushes at a reasonable price. The shipping costs are also reasonable; I have bought bits from UK forum members and paid much more for shipping from the UK.

He deserves our support so if anyone is at all interested in improving your car's handling today or in future, this is THE opportunity.

I have ordered and paid for a complete set.

Regards,
bobf.

Update:

The order passes 10 sets now for ordered and paid. I requested transfer from Paypal to my account.

It means within next week the manufacturer can start making (to wait until next month because of the lead time to transfer to Thailand account and the manufacturer requests 40% deposit).

For the engine mount and subframe, the manufacturer is waiting for the steel price for making structure of the engine mount, soon you will get the price.

I'm experiencing paypal issues. It will be resolved this week once my card issuer sends my new card to me.

Sorry for the holdup.

Now I am waiting for the withdraw money from Paypal to my account in Thailand. It might take until Wednesday to Friday 13th to get the transfer completed. Then I will pay to the manufacturer to start the production.

The spreadsheet show green over types of the bushes are the ones who ordered but not yet paid.

The light blue over the names are the ones who already paid.

Update:

The stainless rings have been ordered, the mold is in process of making.

I am trying to follow him to finish the every first set within end of this month because Matsalleh76 will come to see me race next week and I want the first set finished for him.

This week I have a week off from my work. So, I will go and see the process at the factory and take photos for you.
