There are reasons why other kits cost thousands of dollars. Not to say he doesn't have the intelligance to accomplish such a task. But to those who do make profit off such items have a lot more to lose by not making it affordable. So if they are close to $2,000 for a simple bolt in kit for those like the decah, I think a couple hundred is unrealistic from a private individual, without compromise that is.

Again, if anything one would normally post a picture for bragging rights as to having accomplished such an anticipated modification. He could do so without any promise to put into production or giving away the "secrets" of the design.

 

should we consider this a dead topic?

 

Looks like it

 

Anyone try emailing him or PMing him?

 

He said he would be out of town for a week or so and could not reply or check up on the tread untill he got back....somewhere back in the thread....give him some time.

 

count me in if it is as stated.. i have money in hand

 

This certainly has my interest. As a mechanical engineer myself, I can see how it could be accomplished with enough physics taken into account. I have a few questions myself:

1. What type of accuator is being used?

2. You say that there is need to drill holes for the new hinges; is there no way to use the current hinge holes on the car and use a relocation bracket to prevent unecessary holes? Or are these holes simply unavoidable?

3. How long has this kit been on your car, and how often is it used? I would like to know the longevity of the apparatus thus far.

4. I understand the reason that you do not wish to post pictures. However, I must admit that it would aid in determining the method in which the door opens. You have stated that it still opens ******d some, how much?

I am certainly interested in a kit, but only as a "maybe" at this point. I can not say that I will certainly purchase it, as I do not know if the girlfriend would want to put money into that. It sounds very interesting, and if you need a second opinion or help for any reason with the more technical portion of the setup, I am more than willing to lend a hand.

 

i'd be a "yes" with the assurance that these things are guaranteed. considering i don't know you, it would make it a lot easier on my wallet if there was some kind of deal where if these things crapped out and didn't hold the weight or soemthing, i could get a new pair or my money back

 

$350-500?


If you got pics, I got money!!!! I remember when the hinge kits were $600 in 2001, now the ricers have made that impossible. camaroism's kit is the best lambo kit I've seen (look at it closely). Your talking "out-n-up" right? I dont want a swing out kit.

Ya gotta show some work you've done before anybody up's there f-body mod funds. And for the record.... I HATE DECAH!!!!! Lying SOB's


That Black 4th gen they're advertising is rocking my MY door kit, that was promised to me by "Craig" for a special price. Shows you what a verbal agreement means when friends get in the way. I saved up all that money just to find out they gave the deal to the other guy. they could have at least called me to let me know ( I was callin them ). They said they would make my kit in two months, but they sold it in three without one phone call WTF!!!!!!!

 

Dude

Decah has plenty of those kits for sale... besides I thought you didn't want a swing-out kit ?

 

yea and they go for a very resonable $1895 plus shipping.. BLAH DAMN THATS ALOT!! If this guy falls through anyone wanna see if we can get a GP together for the Decah kit?

 

I want a true lambo style kit, not the Decah up-n-out style.

 

well this guy doenst have what you want then..

and you wont get that without probably having to get new rear view mirros.. and rolling the fenders... too much body modification for me.. ill just get the decah kit or this guys..

 

****** PLANNING STAGES ******

Notice: He says he has 4 kits already installed, but the kit is in "planning stage" so he can't provide photos.

This thread stinks more and more as he contradicts himself.

 

I think he means he is planning it, in the way of planning on whether to sell them or not.
