No, the shipping is extra. I plan to ship them via USPS Priority Flat Rate Box, which is $7.70 anywhere in the USA with 2-3 day service. I ordered more rod ends for making additional tensioners today, but I don't quite know how long it will take to get here...perhaps a week, but I can't promise.

If so, I'm all over this! If they are ready to ship, could you ship via a FedEx and bill my account? I need it for Rotorfest this weekend.

Thanks!
I've included a picture if that helps.

***Edit, sorry I read the other thread and realize that it won't fit the FD. Is there any chance you will be making them for the FD?***
The FD has a different front cover bolt pattern. It wouldn't be a huge deal to modify them for an FD application, but I can't imagine there would be much of a market for it. What would you do about the water pump? Relocating the alternator would seem to make the belt routing impossible, given the reverse-rotation WP.

Blake,

Do you have any other method of payment besides PayPal?? I have neteller, or I can use a credit card. If either of these is acceptable to you then please let me know so I can get on the list for a bracket and on the waiting list for a tensioner rod. Thanks in advance.

Sure. We can take Credit Cards over the phone or you can send us a Money Order. If you want to mail a money order, I can put you on the list today and as long as the postmark confirms you mailed it promptly your spot is held. If you phone in a CC number, we can hold your spot without charging the card $10; we'll wait until the brackets are ready to ship and then charge the full amount. All we are trying to do is sort the serious people from the not-so-serious people.

Our shop number is (503) 233-3878.

Yes, there are a few brackets left for the Group Buy. At this point, the tensioners are sold out and we're making a waiting list for the next batch. You can make your own out of the stock tensioner or you can wait for us to make more.

No, I'm just waiting for (1) the M12x1.50x25mm fasteners and (2) the tensioner rod ends to arrive. Then, I will get everything packaged up and ask for final payment. Should happen towards the end of this week. You are free to pay now, if you like (some have), but I won't start twisting arms until all the ducks are in a row. Once everything is ready to ship, you will have about a two-week grace period to pay before we bump you off the list. I will ship daily, as payments are recieved; not hold any orders up because others are flaking or whatever.

Ok so if I have paid the $10 deposit and want to go ahead and pay the rest, then I owe you $40 more for the bracket and $7.70 for shipping, right? If so I'll go ahead and send that right now if that's cool.

$50+$15=$65 -$10 dep +$7.70 Shipping = $62.70

We don't sell zero pressure radiator caps, but you can buy one locally or make one yourself. The 1st gens can use the old school radiator caps (R-100, RX-2, RX-3 etc...everything '78 and earlier that was not an RX-7), and the 2nd gens can use the Series V (89-91) upper cap. Or, you can simply remove the seal on a standard cap.

Got it and responded via email, as requested. Air Mail Pacel Post to Canada figures US$14.25, in case that's helpful to anyone else.

The first batch of ten pair of rod ends arrived today, so I will start making the tensioners this afternoon. Hopefully, those M12 fasteners will show up today or tomorrow, but if they don't, I'll just go down to the hardware store and pay 3x the price. When things are good to go (tomorrow?) I will start asking for final payment and then try to ship on Friday...Monday at the absolute latest.
