View Full Version : Another PFYC.com Sway Bar Group Buy
people are interested in starting this and even though pfyc hasnt officially said anything, they seem receptive. so post your name and which bars you want and will get this started. here is the original thread on gagt.com:
http://www.grandamgt.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73907
last time around they were $139 each so imagine it would be the same this time around.
some info about the bars:
The PFYC front swaybar is a solid 28.6mm, compared to a hollow 24mm (for RPO FE2) or a solid 24mm (for FE3). The difference in weight and stiffness is huge; but it's not something you'll notice in normal driving - it just increases the harshness of the ride.
The rear PFYC bar is a solid 22.2mm, compared to a solid 14mm (which is like a coat hanger). The handling difference is immediately noticeable as the rear end is much more willing to rotate.
PM me if you want further input.
add your name to this list and lets make this happen again!

May be interested, Am I correct in assuming for normal driving I would only want the rear one??
What advantage would there be putting on both compared to just the rear for normal driving?

yo!
- i want these, but i need an estimate on the price to ship to Canada.
- can somebody also confirm if additional parts need to be purchased to get this thing installed. i followed a link on the grand am gt forum:
---------------------------------------------------------
The link to the Energy Suspension Endlinks is
[-Jegs-]. The part #'s are 355-9-5164 for the front and 355-9-5158 for the rear. That means front is 1 1/8", and rear is 7/8"
---------------------------------------------------------
the link was dead, and where can a Canadian get these parts from?
thanks.

adding a rear all its going to do is tighten up the rear end of the car in turns.. less body roll.
if your going to add one to either the front or the rear your going to notice a big diff for sure. however buy both. only reason i suggest that is because this is the last time you can get them!

i dont know how much shipping would be to cananda. youd probably be better off contacting pfyc about it.

... with the amount of discussion PFYC gets around here, I would love for them to have a Banner Ad with us someday ;) ... so, if anyone has some 'input' there, let them know we would appreciate their support being 'our side' of the Grand Am Community has been contributing to them for a long time as well :) ... anyway, no pressure, just trying to help our site out too ... sorry for the off topic, back to your regularly scheduled Group Buy :lol:

One would think with all of these group buys PFYC would tell the manufacturer to make them and then just stock the freeking things again !!!! The demand is obviously there

The reason that you are getting them for the price you are is because you are ordering them as a batch. If they were doing these as one-offs every time someone ordered them it would probably make the price so ridiculous that nobody would want to buy them.
Anyway, I got a rear bar last time around and it helped out amazingly. The wife wont give me any money so I cant participate for the moment but I may be able to swing something if this lasts another month.

This is the same price they were originally selling it for. The GP is not discount just convincing them to make some more

Whats the latest count? How close are we total?
It's $75 per bar - so if you want both front and rear it's $150 pre-paid. Shipping is expensive, probably $40-60 for two bars and around $30-40 for one. The bars are priced at $139.99 each.

You people do realize that when you get your 'stimulus check' is all based on your SSN dont you?
Some of you may not see them till July.

direct deposit FTW, throw me in there for the 9th for F+R, finally...
time to pay.
The time has come everyone! Payment starts tomorrow and ends at 12:00am Sunday, for those night owls here that is still saturday night not sunday night.
Edit: after checking the link it looks like they switched the deal on us and now want a deposit and then later payment as opposed to what they earlier told me. I will email them to verify this. In the meantime make sure everyone gets paid up in the next two days. Good work all!
