Default NST Feeler Thread ... Now turned Group Buy Thread!

Ok, so A LOT of you know of NST, and you have seen our CR-Lite Crank Pulley for the 1NZ. This pulley is the SAME SIZE as your OEM (stock) crank pulley, is roughly 70% lighter than the OEM pulley, and is compatible with the OEM (stock) belt. The accessories are NOT slowed by this pulley...



As many of you also know, this pulley usually sells for $125 and is usually a SPECIAL-ORDER item on our website...
http://www.nonstoptuning.com/pKitToySciXAXB.htm

The purpose of THIS thread is to see if there are enough of you out there who would be interested in the HIGHEST quality pulley, at the LOWEST possible price.

This pulley usually sells for $125 (red or graphite gray) BUT...

If we can get 20 people committed to a limited edition GROUP BUY, we can offer you this same pulley at ONLY $99 per pulley, shipped to any US or Canada address! In addition, we would be able to offer you these pulleys in YOUR choice of color... Red, Gray, Black, Blue, Green, Purple, Gold, Silver.

If enough of you show interest, we will then give you roughly two weeks to make your payments. Pulleys would be built AFTER payments being processed, and the production cycle would require roughly five weeks from start to finish.

This pulley is compatible with the 1NZ xB, xA, and Echo. Anyone interested?


UPDATE MARCH 12, 2009

Ok everyone, it looks like we are at 15 members. Please read carefully...

Please follow the link bellow to submit your payments BEFORE APRIL 22, 2009. All payments must come in before production can begin, so the sooner the funds are in, the sooner we can start.

PLEASE BE SURE TO LOOK FOR A LINK AT THE END OF THE ORDERING PROCESS THAT ASKS FOR YOUR COLOR CHOICE AND SCREEN NAME. It is your responsibility to include this info. No info, no paid tag.

Production will require roughly six weeks from start to finish, so please do not add your name if you can not wait patiently while pulleys are produced. Production takes quite a while, and this is the reason you are all being offered such a large discount.

Please submit payments here...
http://www.nonstoptuning.com/pKitToySciXAXBgb.html

This payment page will be available until March 30, and anyone who is interested can submit payments between now and then, including new members who would like to join this GB. In fact, we need about five more names!

Those of you who would like to add an alternator pulley can also do so on this page, and you will find that we have even offered you a discount on the alt pulley.

I will update this thread with PAID tags as payments are processed.


1. teabox (gold) -PAID-
2. burstaneurysm
3. Ely (crank + alternator) (green) -PAID-
4. JorG
5. OttoMoto
6. Doulish (blue) -PAID-
7. Nick
8. EAmon
9. PETERY2KRABBIT (blue) -PAID-
10. UV7 (blue) -PAID-
11. Malaclypse (blue) -PAID-
12. Grant314 (black) -PAID-
13. Cantuski
14. boxman27
15. budha53
16. spr0k3t (crank + alternator) (red) -PAID-


UPDATE MAY 6, 2009

We expect to begin production early next week, and hope to have some pulleys available for you guys in about SIX weeks. Current ETA: Late June 2009.

UPDATE JUNE 20, 2009

Production is almost complete ladies and gents. We plan to start shipping out to our GB customers soon.

UPDATE AUGUST 28, 2009

All GB orders have now shipped via USPS Priority Mail!!!


We have built a few extra pieces (red and gray) and anyone else who may be interested in placing an order for one of these pulleys can do so on our website...

Thank you teabox!

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any interest so far... other than your own reply.

I would really love for a GB like this to go through, as I would like to offer you guys the BEST pulleys on the market at an amazing price... Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any support...

We'll leave this thread up for another couple weeks to see if things change.

Yes, of course. Feel free to copy/paste this info and post a link that points to this thread, on other forums.

Also, if you don't mind, please post a link here in this thread so we can keep an eye on other threads where this info is copy/pasted. I would appreciate it.

Thank you for posting those teabox. Please don't forget, you need to post a link in your threads to point to THIS thread. So people can come here and get more info, ask questions, or sign up if they are interested.

So far it looks like we have two members interested...

1. teabox
2. burstaneurysm


Anyone else?

No Ely, we do not offer a WP pulley for the xB.

We offer WP pulleys for the tC, the Yaris, and many other cars... where we have the demand.


To be quite frank and honest... getting support from the xA and xB community has always been like trying to pull teeth for us!!! We have tried to offer the best pulleys, the most options, and the lowest prices for this community over the past few years... and we have received almost zero support.

We simply can not spend on more R&D and more products when there is no support for what we already do offer.

Thanks again for your interest and support, I appreciate it.
