Stance Coilovers

[RotorNutFD3S]

Don't know if anyone is in the market right now, but figured I'd pass the information along.
There is a buy going on a Zilvia.net for Stance Coilovers. Evidently really good price + free shipping and the special is not just for S-chassis owners, he's including Miata, S2000, Scoobys, 350/G35, etc.

Glad it helped someone! :)

[deerock]

haha, im so excited, i might actually be able to post up in the "slammed thread" on Clubroadster, lol. i really hope the pricing is amazing, when i find out ill be sure to post it up on here to let the others know what a deal it was, or could be

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, I PM'd him on the 3rd. Still no reply, although it says he read the message. In any case, let us know what model you choose and what the price ends up being. I'm really curious!

[deerock]

yeah im hoping he will respond soon, cause my shocks are going out, and ill let you know, i know im getting the GR+ im just waiting on the pricing

[MeFryRice]

These are what I'm wanting to get for mine as well. :D

[Doppelgänger]

Ohlins > Stance

[RotorNutFD3S]

Ohlins > Everything

But not everyone gets them with their car when they buy it! :P Besides, Ohlins are expensive as hell anyway.

[MeFryRice]

I would buy a set of Ohlins if I didn't want to eat anymore. :(

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

I would buy a set of x if I didn't want to eat anymore. :(


:lol: the sorry truth of car modding

[deerock]

I would buy a set of Ohlins if I didn't want to eat anymore. :(


hahaha these are the expressions of an average car guy buying Ohlins.

Arrival of the suspension :jawdrop: banana banana

making fun of your friends for not having them :butt: :butt:

putting them on banana :clap: :butt:

going to the dollar menu only to find your card will be denied. :cry: :cry: :violin:

so ima stick to stance so i can banana banana banana 24/7 AND EAT THE NEXT DAY!!

[MeFryRice]

I mean, I wouldn't mind eating Easy Mac for the next 2 weeks till I got paid. :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

^ ROFL

[RotorNutFD3S]

I got a PM back. I asked about the most expensive set they had:

Stance GR+ Coilovers:
Retail $1695
Website pricing $1440.75
Zilvia.net Forum Pricing $1224.38 Shipped to the continuous 48 states.

Not too shabby.

[MeFryRice]

That's not too shabby at all!

........hmmm.....well now that I don't know if I want an NA or NB now, I probably shouldn't order anything. :(

[RotorNutFD3S]

Oh hell. Dude, get an NA. LB can have the NB in the family.
Get her a vanity plate that says LBNB and make my day. :lol:

[deerock]

holy crap!!!! i just got my response too!

Stance GR+ Coilovers:
Retail $1329
Website Pricing $1129.65
Zilvia.net Forum Pricing $974.04 Shipped

im sooooo buying stance asap. banana

[metalman]

Okay...whats the difference in what RotorNut and Deerock are pricing here? Besides the $250 that is! :lol:

Edit: I think Mr Rotor made a typo. You meant AL+ not GR+ right? ;)

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

:wtf: I don't think he likes you rotornut

[Doppelgänger]

I would buy a set of Ohlins if I didn't want to eat anymore. :(


I can't tell you how much pasta and Ragu i keep around.......

[deerock]

i was about to ask the same thing, lol cause i dont need the most expensive ones on there lol just the GR+ will work wonders on my car

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

I would buy a set of Ohlins if I didn't want to eat anymore. :(


I can't tell you how much pasta and Ragu i keep around.......


oo la la mister fancy cuisine.... I lived off purely bread and eurocream (cheap eastern european nutella) a weekend or so ago...


I felt like complete crap the next few days :lol:

[Doppelgänger]

mmmmmmmmmm nutella

[MeFryRice]

I've been trying to cut back on eating out so much so I've brought Easy Mac with me to work the past couple days. :)

Anyways, back on topic, Sawyer has requested a quote for some for her MSM. We'll see what they come back with.

[Doppelgänger]

Steve, tell Laurabeth that she doesn't need to go any lower than the ride height of my car.... I scrape over every speed bump as is because of the extra bracing that the NBs have. Sure you could take bracing off for more clearance, but thats only something a SoCal fag would do.

I still swear by Koni/H&R combo is really a sweetspot suspension for the NB for well under $1000.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Okay...whats the difference in what RotorNut and Deerock are pricing here? Besides the $250 that is! :lol:

Edit: I think Mr Rotor made a typo. You meant AL+ not GR+ right? ;)


I didn't catch the typo, but I didn't make the typo either. Proof? :)

[attachment=207]

And +1 to what Mike said. I rode in an extremely lowered NB, and it was misery. Wasn't quite slammed, but might as well have been.

[MeFryRice]

I will let her know then. :D

[Sawyer]

This is what they gave me:

Stance GR+ Coilovers:
Retail $1329
Website Pricing $1129.65
Zilvia.net Forum Pricing $974.04 Shipped

Stance AL+ coilovers
Retail $1695
Website pricing $1440.75
Zilvia.net Forum Pricing $1224.38 Shipped to the continuous 48states.

[RotorNutFD3S]

You could have found that out just by reading this thread. :lol:

[Sawyer]

Im lazy! :rolleyes:

[Doppelgänger]

I'm sorry, but i can't see the justification of spending that much on suspension that is only known for how low it can go and not about ride quality or functionality. $50 says that a well matched spring and coil setup would perform better and be more comfortable for less money.:wtf:

[Sawyer]

I was just curious on how much the discount was going to be.
For the kind of driving that I do, I couldn't justify spending the extra money on coilovers.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Just be patient like I was and you can score a deal on some good coilovers. :)

[Sawyer]

I'm trying!
I'm not very good at being patient.. :(

[MeFryRice]

You've been around me too long. When I want something, I want it right then. I hate waiting. :(

[Sawyer]

You've been around me too long. When I want something, I want it right then. I hate waiting. :(


Yep! You're rubbing off on me!

[RotorNutFD3S]

You've been around me too long. When I want something, I want it right then. I hate waiting. :(


Yep! You're rubbing off on me!


Oh the ways this statement could be construed... :naughty:

Anyway, just try to be patient then. I gave up on wanting coilovers and that deal popped up. Wasn't exactly the best timing, but I knew that if I didn't get them, someone else would have and I'd be mad at myself.

[metalman]

According to our friends on m.net Stance coilovers are 'nothing more then rebadged Buddy Club which are junk'.....I have no comment or anything, just thought I'd throw this in here for fun.

[Doppelgänger]

^ Not surprising.

[MeFryRice]

Many people on S2Ki run BC's and don't seem to have any issues. Just like the Stances (well duh, obviously since they are just rebranded) are known more for how much of a dump they can give instead of the handling aspect.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Hmmm... that sucks.

[MeFryRice]

Well maybe Stance changed some features on their setups? :P

[Doppelgänger]

I'm surprised no one ever looks into any of the Bilstein setups...we all know how good their stuff is and it runs around that price range.

[metalman]

Keep in mind I have no idea as to the validity of the statements on m.net.
To be honest, you fill find those that will condemn every known brand of suspension,
for one reason or another....just like tires.

[RotorNutFD3S]

I'm surprised no one ever looks into any of the Bilstein setups...we all know how good their stuff is and it runs around that price range.


Even their OEM stuff is great. Which is why I haven't changed mine out for something else yet. Of coruse, now I am, and the Bilsteins and H&Rs are going to Sean.

[Doppelgänger]

If my car didn't come with what it has, i'd still be riding on my Koni/H&R combo.... it was nice. What's the AFCO stuff going for?

[Sawyer]

IIRC, like $2k

[Doppelgänger]

damn... well that's FM for ya. I thin kthe stock MSM Bilstiens with GC would make for a good ride too. Slightly used MSM suspensions are easy to find.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, AFCO is $2k plus shipping from FM.
The Bilsteins from the R-packages are the same as the MSM from what I've read.

[MeFryRice]

I've requested a quote on some H&R springs for Sawyer's car till we decide on a coilover.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Race or Sport?

[MeFryRice]

Race, those are the only ones available for her car.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Oh yeah, they stopped making Sports for 90-05. Guess I have a rare spring setup. Wonder if I can sell them as collector items. :lol:

[MeFryRice]

haha you never know.

[Doppelgänger]

the race has a better spring rate... IIRC 350f and 275r. None of the other springs available have a higher spring rate over a stock MSM. I know TireRack sells the "kit" for $200

[MeFryRice]

yeah but I get special pricing. :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

I needs a NRG quick disconnect. Share some of that special pricing. :lol:

[MeFryRice]

:whistle:

[Doppelgänger]

I'd say they'll be ~$160, whichs is a damn good deal.... might have to hook Jenn up with some too :D

[MeFryRice]

I'll let you know once I hear back. :D

[deerock]

officially ordered them last night. hoping they will be here this week!

im so excited! banana

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Awesome! I bet the upgrade will feel great.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Let us know how they are! And don't forget that alignment when you've installed them! :)

[MeFryRice]

I'm curious how well they are performance wise cause I've considered a set myself. :)

[RotorNutFD3S]

I'd personally be a bit hesitant after what I've been reading up online about them, but there does seem to be a mixed crowd of reviews from people that actually use them...

[deerock]

Awesome! I bet the upgrade will feel great.


yeah they will, especially because im going into them from sock!


Let us know how they are! And don't forget that alignment when you've installed them! :)


DONT WORRY! i will, and id be glad to give the few whom might want a test ride to feel them out if they want, id do it at the sonic meet, and im installing them at Gwinnett Place Chevy courtesy of a friend of mine that works there, so hes also hooking me up with an alignment afterwards too!


I'm curious how well they are performance wise cause I've considered a set myself. :)


like i said, if you would like a test ride, just stop by and find me at one of the gwinnett sonic meets after i have them installed, id be glad to let you have a ride!


I'd personally be a bit hesitant after what I've been reading up online about them, but there does seem to be a mixed crowd of reviews from people that actually use them...


i have seen/been hesitant also, but after hours of CR research and talking to many Stance owners on there, they have never had a problem out of them and they say they ride great. so i was assured with all of that positive backing.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Soon we will know then. :)

[deerock]

that we shall sir! that we shall! :D

ohh i forgot to add! i will be taking pictures of the install and before/after for everyones enjoyment! ;)

[Doppelgänger]

i have seen/been hesitant also, but after hours of CR research and talking to many Stance owners on there, they have never had a problem out of them and they say they ride great. so i was assured with all of that positive backing.



I'd be willing to bet that the Stance users wouldn't know good handling if it slapped them across the face and kicked them in the ***. :lol:
No offence to you Derrick, since you're rolling sround on stock suspension bits any just about anything is better than stock :D

[deerock]

hahahaha youre probably right

and none taken, i am on stock so yeah, anything is better. :lol:

[GraffitiPanda]

hahahaha youre probably right

and none taken, i am on stock so yeah, anything is better. :lol:



anything but ebay and cutting the springs :(


but soon -.-

[Doppelgänger]

hahahaha youre probably right

and none taken, i am on stock so yeah, anything is better. :lol:



anything but ebay and cutting the springs :(


but soon -.-


or using KYB's... those things suck ***.

[metalman]

or using KYB's... those things suck ***.


I have found the KYB AGXs to be far superior to oem shocks, and
a good replacement for them.
Even when paired with the right lowering springs they work fine.
Are they as good as a Tein Flex setup? (or similar) No.
But they dont cost nearly as much either.

[Roadster]

hahahaha youre probably right

and none taken, i am on stock so yeah, anything is better. :lol:



anything but ebay and cutting the springs :(


but soon -.-


or using KYB's... those things suck ***.


Mine were great on my previous Miata (along with the Tein S-Techs, yeah yeah, cringe away, lol). Simon has the same setup on his as well and it handles great. I dunno why people knock on the AGX's so hard. I bought them used (from our very own Kurt) and put a lot of hard miles on them and they never started leaking. They were very composed over uneven/bumpy pavement. For the money I think they're pretty damn good.

Probably going to go with the Megan coilovers this time around. They come out around the same price as a spring/damper/bumpstop combo cobbled together. Might as well have ride height adj. thrown in if I'm spending the same amount.

[deerock]

hahahaha youre probably right

and none taken, i am on stock so yeah, anything is better. :lol:



anything but ebay and cutting the springs :(


but soon -.-


awwz poor nicky poo.

ebay for suspension...thats askin for a wiener to go right in the :butt: lmao.

unless of course, youre buying good quality items for teh cheapness, then its a okay. but yes boo on cut springs and ebay coilovers. :wtf:

[wantboost]

hey derek that lip better only be 1 inch off the ground:lol:

btw what are the spring rates on those?

[deerock]

hahahahaha it will be soon enough man!

and i believe they are 8k rear 6k front, in english its 450 rear and approx. 340 front

[Doppelgänger]

Wait, the rears are stiffer than the fronts? What kinda ghey ricer **** is that?

[MeFryRice]

No, he got them backwards F8k/R6k.

[Doppelgänger]

Too soft to ride that low. IIRC mine are 12k/8k

[MeFryRice]

Yup, I wonder if they offer stiffer spring rates?

[Doppelgänger]

Being a cheap company.. probably not.

[metalman]

Standard GC setup that MANY use is 450/375 IIRC...so in reality, despite Doppels disdain of this product, it will probably be just fine for street cruising. ;)

[Doppelgänger]

Oh, i know it'll be fine for street crusing.... at a ride height that's not 1" off the ground. I'd expect that a company that's making a suspension specifically for "how low it can go" would increase the spring rate accordingly so it's more useful for the 1" of suspension travel it's going to use.

[MeFryRice]

Well most people that are more worried about being "dumped' don't are about how it actually handles. :rolleyes:

[Doppelgänger]

i know... and it's sad... they need to be shown the light of proper handling. I say we call a intervention...

lol j/k Derrick

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Well does the strut travel really get sacrificed when your just lowering the strut inside it's coilover body?

[metalman]

With the design of the shock body I betcha a set of fairly 'dumped' Stance coilovers still has as much travel as a standard "proven to work well' Koni/GC "lowered' setup...maybe even more. The Koni GC setup travel in the rear is virtually nill, thats why progressive bumpstops help alot.

I think we're doing alot of 'bench racing' here on the Stance without any real data to back it up.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Well I may aswell just lock the subject and say that they suck and everyone must buy koni's or revalved Bilsteins and call this place miata.net :D

[metalman]

Well I may aswell just lock the subject and say that they suck and everyone must buy koni's or revalved Bilsteins and call this place miata.net :D


No...because to be on par with m.net its OEM or nothing! :lol:

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

http://www.dine.to/images/feature_articles/berber_wine21.jpg

Ah of course! My bad, you need to spend and buy the whole R package because it's the best suspension setup ever.

[deerock]

lol. i have no response hah.

[Doppelgänger]

you don't because you better be in the garage putting them on your car!

[MeFryRice]

You get them already?

[RotorNutFD3S]

If he does have them, that was certainly fast!

[Doppelgänger]

One day, I want to get my hands on a NA and just remove the suspension and put it on the ground, take pics and post it on CR with a big "your car is riding too high" caption :lol:

[MeFryRice]

Well we can do it to mine one weekend for ****s and giggles..

[ben91]

It might destroy the exhaust system

[MeFryRice]

haha I wouldn't drive around on it.

[ben91]

no really . :wtf:

putting my car "on the ground" would probably destroy the downpipe and the midpipe as they hang lower than the frame in parts. a stock car is fairly similar.

[MeFryRice]

OT- Are you the same Ben that hung out with us at the Fireman sub place after the Caffeine & Octane show?

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah Steve, that's him.

[ben91]

OT- Are you the same Ben that hung out with us at the Fireman sub place after the Caffeine & Octane show?

Hmm. Is that what happened? Because I thought you hung out with me. :lol:

[MeFryRice]

Just making sure you were the same one. :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

OT- Are you the same Ben that hung out with us at the Fireman sub place after the Caffeine & Octane show?

Hmm. Is that what happened? Because I thought you hung out with me. :lol:


No, you hung out with us. We got there first! :)

[Doppelgänger]

Hahaha. I don't think ould be much problem dumping a stock Miata on the ground for a picture or 2. It'd be a good way of making fun of those so-call *******s :lol: (not you Derrick)

[MeFryRice]

Well I'm game. :P

[metalman]

Hahaha. I don't think ould be much problem dumping a stock Miata on the ground


I have done it before. Just remove shocks/springs...and waalahh...it will be on the floor.

[ben91]

mkay. Sounds like fun then.

[metalman]

Yeah...more fun than I want to experience just to poke fun at so-cal retards.

[ben91]

well if you're changing the suspension anyway banana

[GraffitiPanda]

no really . :wtf:

putting my car "on the ground" would probably destroy the downpipe and the midpipe as they hang lower than the frame in parts. a stock car is fairly similar.


then put blocks underneath the rail and photoshopm' out :)

i think it would kick *** to just rub it around in a few ppls face LOL

"mines lower"

"no MINE IS"

"NO mine!"

yeah ***** .100th cm ground clearance LOL!

[deerock]

lol at you nick :lol:

blocks, unless they are the size of a 2x4 woul be almost the same height as stock lol

which.....according to the CR wieners would be a GTFO! NOT SLAMMED! look and according to a regular miata driver, it would be thats stock look :lol:

[deerock]

welll if anyones paying attention, i just got off the phone with Stance and they said, they are shipping it out this week, and i will have the coilovers in my HANDS no later than friday. banana but still no tracking numberr >:I

[metalman]

Good deal. You'll have to change your personal tag to "SLMMDD" hehehe....:D

[RotorNutFD3S]

Cool! At least they know you have an order in the system. lol

[deerock]

haha yeah, i like to make sure they dont forget about my order since i never knew the company i bought the stance from shipped them direct from manufacture, and not intense motorsports themselves.

and ill deff do that just for you kurt! :naughty: :lol:

[MeFryRice]

Why did it take them so long to process the order?

[deerock]

Why did it take them so long to process the order?


it wasnt the processing that took a week, i had to wait for stance to get the shipment of coilovers in, which came in last friday, so they shipped it today.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, they had to rebadge them. We already discussed this. Keep up man.

[deerock]

well its friday....and still NO COILOVERS im pissed.

maybe tomorrow :)

[MeFryRice]

If I were you, I'd call them and ask for a tracking #. It's been what, two weeks now??

[Sawyer]

^^ Yeah, it couldn't hurt.

When we ordered my Track Dog Racing splitter, the website said that it ships out in 1-2 days. Well 2 or 3 weeks later we still hadn't received it. Well when we called up there they still hadn't even shipped it out yet! So much for 1-2 days...

Always ask for a tracking number.

[deerock]

i did, but they didnt give it to me, they only told me that stance was shipping it out monday and id have it by friday, but yeah i guess i can call stance and not the company ordered from..

[RotorNutFD3S]

Damn dude. Hopefully you'll get them today. But I'd be making some phone calls anyway.

[deerock]

ohh believe me i am.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Still nothing? Damn...

[deerock]

yeah, they said friday, but nothing, so im calling both companies in the mornng, and getting my tracking number no matter what it takes, then gonna ***** till i get free stuff or store credit! :D

[RotorNutFD3S]

Do what you have to do. You've paid them your hard earned money, they are supposed to take care of you now!

[deerock]

thats exactly right!

[MeFryRice]

I recommend being nice but being stern. Threaten to cancel the order if they cannot provide you with a tracking # during that same phone conversation. Don't let them "look it up and they'll call you right back" ****.

[deerock]

yeah thats how i was last time and they told me that they were shipped, so im just gonna do what you said. but thats the other thing, im going to contact stance directly first, because they ship the suspension direct from manufacture

[RotorNutFD3S]

Well good luck with it in any case. I've had similar transactions before, a little patience (which I don't have much of when I've spent my money) is necessary.

[deerock]

im the exact same way man. and thanks!

[Doppelgänger]

yeah thats how i was last time and they told me that they were shipped, so im just gonna do what you said. but thats the other thing, im going to contact stance directly first, because they ship the suspension direct from manufacture


So wait, Stance ships from directly from their manfacurer?? But aren't they the manufacturer? WTF?:wtf:

Yeah, when they pretty much refused to give you a tracking number, that was a red flag.... sucks that people give such ****ty service :(

Get your monies back and get the Bilstein PSS9 coils and be a baller :)

[MeFryRice]

or some Motons. :P

[RotorNutFD3S]

Or some Ohlins! :)

[MeFryRice]

or some Penske.

[Doppelgänger]

The Bilsteins are in the same price range as the Stance +/- $100

[metalman]

The Bilsteins are in the same price range as the Stance +/- $100


Not the sale price though. ;)

[Doppelgänger]

IIRC the Bilsteins are ~$1100-$1200 and the Stance's are normally ~$1000

[deerock]

talked to stance today, they said to get the tracking number from intense. and by shipped from manufacture i meant, the intense motorsports ships them from stance. lol my badd

[Acro]

Any idea when they will be in?

[deerock]

idk im hoping sometime this week, ill have to give intense a call in the morning, before i go into work.

[MeFryRice]

Sounds to me like your getting the run around on this one. Who did you send payment too? That's who should be supplying you with a tracking #. If indeed Intense has it, then it should be Stance's responsibility to provide it to you.

[RotorNutFD3S]

If indeed Intense has it, then it should be Stance's responsibility to provide it to you.


Wha? :wtf: Has what?

It does sound like you're getting the runaround. The guy on Zilvia.net is just the middle man. After you paid him, he should have placed the order with Stance, who then ships to where he specified, which in this case should be you. Stance therefore should know when your order went out, by what shipment method, and the tracking info.

[MeFryRice]

If Intense has the tracking #, it should still be Stance's responsibility to provide him with such information.

[RotorNutFD3S]

Oh, I see what you meant. But yeah, that should be the case. Meaning that there are two parties that should know the tracking information.

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

Did you use your credit card on paypal Derick? If so, I'ld call up and cancel it all if it's not with you soon. Then if it ever arrives tell them to give you the money to ship it back and if they never do you keep them anyway.

You've shown more patience than I'm capable of in this escapade.

[Doppelgänger]

So wait, there is one guy acting like a middle man to Intense, who is just a middle company to Stance who gets their stuff from Buddy Club who gets their stuff from whatchamacallit company in Asia? Wow that's a lot of cost sharing... I bet those things cost about $200 to the original manfacturer :lol:

[RotorNutFD3S]

Yeah, way too many people involved. :lol:

[deerock]

lol alright. i got it all sorted out a few minutes ago with intense motorsports. heres the dealie-o

1) 30 minutes phone call to intense.
2) had them explain to me why its been taking so long
reason- he called stance to check the order, they got the shipment in 2 weeks ago, then they have to order their own shipping supplies (IE the added week it took) so they got the stuff in monday, and he said they shipped it out yesterday.
3) i WILL have a tracking number in my email tonight.

so 45 minutes later i got it all straight with intense. they apologized for my waiting, and told me to call them directly if i have any further problems.

awesome. so thats up to date as of 10 minutes ago. lmao :lol: i did all this while sitting at work.
:D

[Acro]

Good for you. Can't wait to see it low ;3

[RotorNutFD3S]

Way to use company time and resources! :whistle:

[MeFryRice]

It's about damn time. :lol:

[Doppelgänger]

So wait, they sill couldn't give you the tracking number? They should have been able to get that to you while you were on the phone.....

I know of a Taco Mac employee that would fit right in working at one of these companies :lol: Can hear it now... "Oh yeah? What happened there?"

[MeFryRice]

ROFL!!!

[RotorNutFD3S]

It took me a moment to realise Intense was the name of the person you're dealing with, I thought you were just saying you took to the intensity levels of a Miata owner. In fairness I never really viewed you as an intense person :lol:

[deerock]

^ hahahahahahah :lol: i guess i should have put MOTORSPORTS after intense.. woulda made things a lot easier huh?

my fault man!

and im not really. im laid back. just like a lot of the other miata guys!

[Doppelgänger]

get that tracking number yet?

[deerock]

no. checked my email 500 times. ima call them in the morning and annoy them until i get one lol :lol:

[Doppelgänger]

Holy Batman.... i'd be getting quite irritated by this point.

[RotorNutFD3S]

That is BS!
I don't get it. The buy thread on zilvia was full of people posting up pictures of the Stance stuff they just got.

[deerock]

i am now.


That is BS!
I don't get it. The buy thread on zilvia was full of people posting up pictures of the Stance stuff they just got.


i know right! im gonna go bother them on there too!


EDIT!! pm sent to them on zilvia.net hopefully ill get better response there. although i did find a post saying this;

I ordered mine! Got em in the mail yesterday. Had a little hickup with the shipping and what not but customer service over the phone was excellent! They worked to figure out the problem and let me know what was going on. I'll vouch for these guys.

so apparently they are slow with teh shipping, but atleast the guy got his so i know ill get mine.....eventually..

[MeFryRice]

but atleast the guy got his so i know ill get mine.....eventually..

When? Next year?

[Doppelgänger]

They must have run out of STANCE stickers ...which caused them to hold shipping :lol:

[deerock]

MOST CURRENT UPDATE AS OF 6:39PM OCTOBER 29 2008

I FINALLY GOT MY TRACKING NUMBER!

however. it has not been shipped because not all the tracking information is available right now...

i dont know what that means... if it has been shipped or it just hasnt been updated yet.

but i DO have a tracking number.

i had to PM the company (intense motorsports) on zilvia.net to actually get a response. i just politely said the following. I need my tracking number. gave them all my order information and i got my tracking number! :D

further updates when i check the tracking for the millionth time. i did do an estimated shipping time on ups.com and it said about 2 days from IL to GA. just a random fact

[Jack-MX5ATLanta.com]

cool time to update you sig1\!

[deerock]

ohh yeah!! i almost forgot that! :lol:

[RotorNutFD3S]

YAY!!! :D

[deerock]

okay another update for you guys... this is an interesting one.

after all the frustration. i went and saw saw 5 (great movie, but you have to have seen the previous 4. and have payed attention.) now back to the topic so jack is not mad.

i came home, and decided lets google my tracking number... lol :lol:

so i did. and to my surprise..........


its being shipped via FEDEX. ( i was trying to use ups to track my package :wtf: :facepalm.)

so its official. intense motorsports is a real company.

and stance uses fedex to ship.

it never dawned on me that i should try OTHER SHIPPERS.

anyways the fedex regular ground shipping is two days from the date it left the fedex in IL which was 11:38 pm Oct. 29 so im expecting it late friday.

updates will follow! :clap:

and the sig is updated for this too ;)

[RotorNutFD3S]

:wtf: for not making sure you had the right shipper. :lol:

[deerock]
