It might go higher but thats the risk you take in holding out mate

How long have I got to hold out before the crate'll be leaving ?

Jamieg285 · « **Reply #5 on:** April 19, 2006, 06:31:00 pm »

Probably a few weeks, I am waiting for the brakes from Baer, and don't have an eta as yet.

Jamie did you tell andy to hold up until these arrive?

Jamieg285 · « **Reply #8 on:** April 20, 2006, 09:08:05 am »

No - I assumed he would be though. Guess I'd better call him.

Who's wanting what, and roughly what timescales? Will be helpful know up front before I call Andy.

I'm probably gonna order a full suspension kit from Jegs.

Also some odd bits from Brooks Camaro, too.

Don't know any times scales as yet but shouldn't be more then 14 days . . .

Jamieg285 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 20, 2006, 10:54:28 am »

I *might* be wanting to order some stuff from Jegs too, dependant on Andy and what I need to get from Summit.

If I do, it will make sense to order them together.

Roadkill · « **Reply #13 on:** April 20, 2006, 11:11:41 am »

Let us know - I was gonna stick mine on the credit card as it'll be around £420 . .

Placed my order for rotors and pads today.... should be with andy within 3-6 days...

If anyone wants to send anything small to my hotel in Vegas, read my Vegas thread.

No headers, wheels, wings or engines thanks!

I'm thinking suspension . . . .

Incursus · « **Reply #20 on:** May 02, 2006, 09:39:33 pm »

only got $1.76 for the £2k I sent over

does explain why Andy wants the rest in sterling though

55starchief · « **Reply #21 on:** May 02, 2006, 09:47:49 pm »

andy wants the rest in sterling for when he comes over here mate. if he exchanges back the rate would be $1.85-£1 so he would loose money where as if he has sterling he looses nothing

Incursus · « **Reply #22 on:** May 02, 2006, 09:52:20 pm »

Makes no odds to me.......mmmm horsepower....

:rubshandstogether:

55starchief · « **Reply #23 on:** May 03, 2006, 02:05:49 pm »

and it keeps climbing up another cent

Jamieg285 · « **Reply #24 on:** May 04, 2006, 08:33:45 pm »

If my brakes are now with Andy, that's my shopping all but done.

Anyone ordering other stuff to go to him?
