8/17/06 3am EST UPDATE!! See post number 95!!

Ok, guys here's the thread for the GB for the BRAND NEW TiC 6MT Pivot Bushings.

If you do not know what they are then here's the description from our site:

After the release of the 5MT pivot bushings the STi guys BEGGED us to make these. The 5MT version has been selling well enough for us to follow through for the 6MT guys.
That's right - these are the brand new pivot bushings for the STi 6MT. They fit all years of the USDM STi, and all brands of the levers that reuse the stock bushings. Oh, and for those of you wondering what they do - it's kinda hard to describe. They just make things feel better. Maybe someone can give me some prose to put here as I'm at a loss for words.

Just for clarification these are the bushings that go in the actual lever. Not down below, but under the leatherette shift boot in the car. In other words you can change these out in just a few minutes from inside the car.

Install technique is pretty much just like for the 5mt version. Here's a quick breakdown of how it works:

Unscrew shift knob, and unsnap the shifter boot
Remove the trim to access the shifter under the boot
Using 2 12mm wrenches undo the bolt and remove
Push out old stock sleeve, and pull out old bushings
Grease the inside of the pivot tube and press the new bushings in - it's a tight fit to give it some effort
Grease the insides of the bushings and press the new metal sleeve in
Grease faces of bushings where they will contact the control rod clevis
Slide into clevis - it'll be a tight fit
Insert bolt and tighten to 8lbs
Let me review two things - USE GREASE AND 8lbs OF TORQUE
Give them about half way to work to get comfy in their new home, and enjoy

Now here's the rules for the Group Buy:
1) This offer will last until the first batch is gone OR the end of the month. Whichever comes first.
2) When you buy them use the product listed in our Custom Packages area or you will not get the GB price.
3) Please let me know your screen name in the order comments or at least some way for me to figure out your real name to your screen name so I can update the list below. Your pay and ship status will appear after your name to you have some idea where they are.
4) There was something else, but I can't remember it right now. It's late, I'm tired, and I still have lots to do before bed. I'll put it here when I remember.

Here's the link to the GB version of these:

Here's the list from the "strongarm" thread. If you do not see your name do not worry - I will add it.

The List:
Ok - here's the deal on the list. We got 53 orders for these in the first day alone. All that on top of our normal shipping, and other daily tasks completely slammed us. I could literally spend the next few hours figuring out screennames to real names, and I've got to go to bed before the wife kills me. So, here's the deal. If you have ordered them you should have an email by now, and if not an email an update to your account on our site. If you do not then please get in touch with us.

Going forward - order them like normal from the site. You will get an update on the status when they ship. That's usually pretty quick except for Saturday afternoons and evenings - that's the only time we really take any time off from TiC (sorry, not my decision - those of you who are married will understand). If you have not heard from us after an extended length of time then please email or PM us to ask WTH.
