The last time I spoke with these guys about making the kits again, they told me 6-8 weeks before they start taking orders.

That was in May....

I was part of the first group buy, early 2011. Intake/water temps have never been so low, even during 108° summer days. Quality fabrication and build quality. Worth the wait

Do you have AC? Any pictures of your AC condenser / lines? I broke mine while trying to bend the hard lines.



I have a lot of install pictures of this kit in my build thread.

I never had A/C in my car before install. Do you have the condenser optional brackets?

yea, I have the a/c brackets. But you have to bend all the hard lines to make it work because you are flipping the condenser over. my condenser cracked where one of the hard lines comes out of it and left me with a face full of r12. I am going to buy an afterket condenser and flexible lines and make new brackets for it. too much trouble with the stock ac system.

Please put some updates on this in your build thread. I have the Defined kit and love it and I am looking at reinstalling A/C as well. My condenser was also twisted and cracked so I am looking at doing an aftermarket condenser and custom flexible hoses.

I was thinking of doing a condenser that also doesn't cover the entire radiator to not compromise cooling.

I will have it in my build thread for sure. Right now, I am just trying to get the car running. But I will undoubtedly have my AC back up shortly after... Its HOT in Texas.

Greetings to all from Defined! We have been really behind schedule on in-house customer projects, so we stayed away from product building until better timing. That time is now So we are ready to do a 5 slot group buy. Near same great price, with $50 more than last time.

Now things to remember-

We pride ourselves on quality work, and we always deliver. Our name remains one of the few without any negative feedback from any source.

This means trust us and do not worry

This group buy will recieve the v-mounts on or before March. Its longer than usual but its winter and off-season so I want to give us enough time.

The tow hook option, hot pipe option will not be available this time around.

The A/c option still is at $120 extra

Shipping will be paid after the kits are ready to ship.

Once we get 5 people in and paid the time will start.

So that is everything, lets get the ball rolling and see who wants a nice v-mount!

Hey, I'm still here, I'm still interested.

I've been fighting wanting to give up the HKS intake, but I think i'm over that.

Do you ship internationally?
If so, do you have an estimate on how much shipping this kit to Norway would cost?

Thanks in advance
