Rainman

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Anyone interested in a group buy for a TWM Performance ShortShifter?

TWM ShortShifter Website

We'll need at least 5 ppl to get it cheaper.

Again sorry this is for Melb only - due to shipping prices.

Will have more info on the prices as soon as they reply back. (That's if anyone's interested)

Thanks.

Here's the list so far:

Me (Melb)

JIN (Melb)

$ANGELO$ (WA)

B rad (Syd)

Hi all,

Here's the email I received from them:

There are several different shipping options to Australia. TWM

Performance has calculated the following prices based on the quantity of 5

shifters.

Your shipping options are as follows:

Canada Post International Ground (4-5 weeks delivery) for $75.00 USD

Express Post Air International (1-2 week delivery) for $130.00 USD

UPS Worldwide Express (7 business days) for $222.00 USD

These shipping options are not available through our website. Our on line

shopping cart has several limitation hence you would need to contact us

directly to process this order. If you are looking at buying 5 short

shifters as a group buy then I would be able to offer you the 2003 Toyota

Corolla’s for $130.00 USD. When organizing a group buy we ask that there

is a minimum of 10 short shifters for a 10% discount. Seeing as that the

shipping is very expensive to Australia we will allow the group buys to be

lower.

The answer to your question is yes the $75.00 USD is for 5 shifters

shipped to Australia. Please note that for this price of shipping the

time delay is 5 weeks. IF you are not prepared to wait the 5 weeks you

have the other two options available. These were all calculated based on

the 5 units.

So if we choose the $75USD shpping price it'll be $15USD each for shipping.

That means $130 + $15 = $145USD. That's around $178AU delivered.

Cheers.

Hey guys,

That only makes 3 of us. We need 5 for them to sell it at that price. :whistling:

Anyway I wont be able to get it till mid July or mid August - - servicing, rego... and you know the rest...

But if we do get 5 and you guys really can't wait till then; then I think I'd better come up with the money hey :lol:

OK for those interstate ppl -->

I went to AUS Post web site and found for a Regular Parcel:

up to 5kgs - Melb to WA about $20 extra

up to 5kgs - Melb to Syd about $12 extra

Add an extra $2.60 for registered post if you want.

Melb post code to where it will be posted will be 3151.

Hopefully this thing doesn't weigh more than 5kgs.

hey mate is that price including shifter cable and base bushings?

On the web site its $39.90USD.

I'll ask and see how much they are with the group buy.

I'll put a list up on the first post of ppl that have expressed their interest.

PM me if you want to be on or off the list.

Thanks.

do the TWM shifters angle the shifter towards the left or right hand side?

The TRD Japan and stock shifters have the lever angled towards the RH side in right-hand drive vehicles.

Would be annoying if they were angled to the left for US vehicles.

Sorry to do this to your guys, but I have to pull out of this GB. :(

Been doing some thinking and reading and for that price of $170AU is just the TWM SS without the bushings. Add this and the price is about $210AU.

If you look at the TRD SS, it comes with the full shifter assembly. It might not be as short as the TWM one(interms of height not throw), but it is a TRD brand AND also I found one going for $269AUS delivered on a forum brand new. :toast: $50AU more than the TWM and you get the full shifter assembly and a TRD gear knob.

If you guys still wanna get the TWM SS and have the 5 ppl for this GB, I'm willing to help you guys sort it out.

Btw, they still haven't replied back to my email regarding the price of the bushings.... :angry:

Here's a link to some good reading:

ShortShifter

Once again guys, sorry for backing out of this GB.

Cheers.
