Greddy performance parts take forever

I ordered my Greddy 24 row front mount back in September, (9/27/02) and basically forgot that I ordered it.

This morning (11/14/02) I get an email saying that it shipped yesterday. UPS says it will be at my house on 11/20/02. so it took just under 2 months for the dam thing to come. If you are planning fmic, plan well ahead!! 2 months... This thing better fit perfectly!

Part of the problem was the dock worker's strike in California - that slowed up a LOT of stuff coming over from Japan. Greddy USA typically doesn't keep a lot of inventory on large application-specific parts like that either.

It doesn't say which GReddy i/c it is on his site, but its $1000+. I paid $885 shipped for mine. Can he meet that price? Its for the 24 row one that fits the stock turbo.

Everything imported is still backlogged from the shipping strike.
Thank the socialist unions for your wait.

if you guys are putting that intercooler on a 87-88 TII you might want to get 89-91 PS pumps or the piping might not fight. my friend had that problem..... just a heads up

My TII did not come from the factory with power steering, will that IC fit my 87TII with no modifications?

wow you guys are lucky LOL you won't have a problem then. only problem i saw was that the 87-88 PS pump is larger than the 89-91 so the piping won't fit. if you don't have PS will fit NO PROBLEM

I emailed him. If he says that he can meet or beat that price I'll get my money back and buy it from him. I'm tired of waiting.

Ya, your right. But on another note...how come SaabGuy ordered his after me and is getting his before me? Doesn't make sense at all.

**** the dock workers!!

Who needs dock workers when we have friends that know friends who have parts stacked to the ceiling, I bet you RX7.com has 5 kits in stock right now!

I'm sick of hearing there is no greddy product in this country! you need to know how to find it. Sure you can order a TT harness from some shitty company that buy greddy from a distributor and wait three months, or you can buy parts from people that buy in for $50,000 worth of product each year. See how fast your **** comes

Well I found mine cheaper so I get the last laugh. I have been planning the fmic for my car in the meantime. Getting injectors, gaskets, cleaning injectors. Takes time. Just glad I ordered 2 months ago and not last week. BTW I got mine from www.horsepowerfreaks.com for $920 shipped (Call them and lower price)
