Official group buy for the Quaife Limited-Slip Differential for the 1998-2003 Ford ZX2 (2.0L MTX) at $1,200. The price is much lower than the previous estimates of $1,300-1,400 posted in late November (partly due to the fact Quaife is working on 6 other LSD’s that are in full production already). The price of $1,200 does not include shipping.
In total there will be 3 payments (2 if you pay in full the first time). First is a 50% deposit ($600) is needed by Friday Feb. 27, 2006. Once the LSD’s are complete and ready for shipping, the other half of the total ($600) will be required along with a payment for shipping. A shipping quote will be sent to everyone. Time from when all the 50% deposits are in to when the units are finished and ready for shipping is still being figured out. I will know within a few days of an estimate and by the time deposits are in, will know of a sure ready-to-ship date.
Now the payments cannot be sent individually to Quaife. Quaife will receive the deposits in one payment form. The form of payment will be a Postal Money Order (PMO) which you can obtain at any U.S. Post Office. They aren’t free but if you can’t afford the $1.25 fee then you shouldn’t be buying a LSD, lol. The reason for the PMO is that it is the most secure form of payment around. Main features about it are that the PMO’s are:
-Just like U.S. currency in that, they are specially designed with different colored inks, watermarks, and security thread in the paper.
-They are all traced.
-If they are lost, stolen or damaged, USPS replaces them or can cancel the PMO.
If you want to read more about Postal Money Orders go to: http://www.usps.com/money/sendingmoney/ … elcome.htm. If you wish to send another form of payment, check, money order, or paypal those are accepted. Note Paypal may charge fees to you depending on the type of account you have. Check with them about your account and how much you would have to send to cover the fees. I think if you send less than $500 at a time they charge nothing, but check to make sure. (Example: Send two payments of $300 for both 50% deposits)
There will be a special payment plan I will do for the first 5 people that request it. Note this is for only the people that need to pay in segments, so if you can pay for your unit without any financial compromising I suggest you allow others who need it. Your payments will be split into four $300 payments monthly. Beginning in February and ending in May with it being the final payment month. This does not include the shipping quote. After the final payment is received, your LSD will be shipped to you. More information will be available to those people.
[b]In simple terms:
-Price $1,200 (shipping not included)
-First deposit of $600 due by Friday February 27, 2006
-Final deposit of $600+Shipping Quote due by TBA

Just received final information. Manufacturing time is estimated at 120 days. It will be known the exact time once the deposits are all in. I was assured the actual time will be less than the estimate. Also considering the price was less than there estimate the time is less than 120 days. Figure by the deadline of Feb. 27th your looking at finish time in early June by estimates, actual maybe early May. Just in time right before summer. The Unit will come with a warranty card that you fill out and send in to activated and register the LSD warranted.
Just playin’ Mark.
