....Rb25det front clip question....
I have a couple of questions actually...
1.) What are the advantages of getting the Rb25det with the front clip vs. just the motor?
2.) Does anyone know any good places in the Minnesota area or any good websites where I can buy a Rb25det here in the states that still has the motor connected to the front clip?
Thanks a million........

Clip comes with EVEYTHING you need and a bunch of extra fuses and bolts. Motorset might not come with everything, you are buying the clips for the security of having everything you need.
The only place I know of in the states is ebay.

Venus is going down in my book, they sent me a bad motor taht was supposed to be a running long block, and itwould only hold a max of 15% of compression. Now they are being bitter about taking it back. We'll see how it goes. If you do get a clip from them, make sure you test it before 30 days, or else you are SOL.

Hyjynx, why dont you ask Night how many of the 8 or 9 clips he has actually delivered before recommending him. I can answer for you if you like, NONE. And some of the guys have been waiting over 9 months for theirs. If you STILL want to recommend him, go ahead though.
I actually have access to one for about $3000 plus around $600 for shipping, I am not selling it, I was just offered it. It was hit in the RT FT though....If you are interested, email Brad at TBRacing.com he found it for me already.
There are alot of good places that can get them.
Just call around and ask if it is IN STOCK before you send any money. Maybe ask them to take a picture of it with a certain phrase on a board in front of the motor sjo you know it is actually in stock.
Good luck!

I will post some places tomorrow, I have a list at work on the computer there...I have just been compiling them. Like I said, Brad at TBracing.com found one for me about 2 weeks ago and said it was a week away so it must be in the states.
Try emailing him and see what happens.

I didnt actually buy the clip, I was looking for someone else who apparently backed out and fell off the face of the earth, but it was the begfinning of last week(Nov 2nd I believe) that Brad quoted me $2900 plus $600 shipped anywhere I wanted on the east coast within a week. I cant verify that all the places have them in stock, only that they advertise selling them on their website.
I have a little vendetta against Night right now for screwing alot of people in our little community and then having the ***** to come back and pretend nothing happened.
If I offended you, I apologize, just pissed at Night, thats all.
