Custom made short shifters for sell for the protégé 5-speeds.
Manufacture is SD-i (superior design for imports)
Price of each shifter is $75 plus shipping.
E-mail me for information or pictures
Also, who would be interested for pulleys for the MSP? Since no one makes them, I'm trying to work out a deal with another manufacture to make them.

It's about the same for almost half the cost. a B&M goes for about $130. This one here is almost identical and we're selling them for $75.

You are trying to sell quite a few of these, right? This isn't a used part coming off your car. You should be an authorized vendor.

It's not a used part, it's a new part. A friend of mine has a guy who works for SD-i who made them for us.
Just trying to help people out, who like me own a Protege...
and the $130? That came off the B&M website.
WildWolf

the differance? only thing diff. about it is that it doesn't same B&M...
other than that, it's identical

yea, well the 79 came off this site that b&m are selling for, so what is different about that shifter?

No shit. The point I was trying to make is that if this was a single part, it would be okay. You are coming on this site to sell these for PROFIT. That's where the problem lies.
Read the link I posted. I'm not trying to be a dick, but too many poeple around here have been scammed by someone "trying to help out fellow protege owners".

that shop has a cnc machine(needed to make the pivot housing)?? what kind of metal is the shifter made out of?
WildWolf

I posted to this site as a favor to my friend and because of the "for sell/group buy (NON-VENDOR)
If you're that worried about it, then ignore the posting.
If someone was to buy it, and did not like it, my friend would refund the money back.
AGAIN SD-i MADE IT FOR A FRIEND WHO IS TRYING TO HELP OUT protégé OWNERS. Becuase not a lot of people make things for the car and sometimes when do you do find parts they cost a lot of money.

SD-I have a website or something

Did you even read the link? You cannot gaurantee that anyone will refund our money! That is the main purpose of becoming an AV or AMM. Please follow the forum rules. They aren't that hard to follow.
And we have plenty of WELL KNOWN short shifter dealers on here. Ones that we know we can trust.
WildWolf
09-23-2004, 08:23 PM
YES, they are made just like the B&M ones...they just don't say B&M...they are identical to the B&M, however, they don't say B&M...same material and everything.

Dude what's your deal? Why are you such a dick? pull your head out of your ass. My friend asked me to do this for him. I'm trying to help him out. And the profit made it not that much. He was just curious if anyone would be interested in them.
And yes, I did read the forum.... I don't lie, cheat, or steal from people. If I say if the person doesn't like it, yes I would have the money refunded to them.
mp5jeff
09-23-2004, 08:26 PM
so its made out of 1144 steel right?
WildWolf
09-23-2004, 08:27 PM
If you're that worried, then go with the other one.... again, we were interested to see whom might like them.

How do we know anything about you? I don't see what is so difficult about following forum rules!! I don't care what he makes off this. The fact is, there is a posibility that anyone on this forum can lose money dealing with someone that isn't verified. Simple as that.
And don't start with personal attacks. I did not attack you, so I expect the same in return. Just do what every other vendor here has to do.

I think everyone would be a lot cooler about you selling your product if you become an authorized vendor even though your trying to help your friend sell these.
WildWolf

the SD-i's website is under construction and will be up shortly.
They are a local manufacture here in Phoenix.
The shaft is made out of High Carbon Steel
the ring is made out of 6061 T6 Aluminum
and it also has Teflon bushings
My buddy only had 50 or so made.

dude, that is fine...but you did not have to come off as a ass. And yes, you did indirectly attack me.
I will see what I can do about the vendor status.
Just cool your jets amigo.

Umm, correct me if I'm wrong, but did I not say, "I don't mean to be a dick" and even explained why I was telling you to become authorized? It's your fault you decided to take it personally, AMIGO.
roughly 50 shifters @ $75 each comes out to a possibility of members losing over $3,700. It's happened before, and I'll do whatever I can to make sure it doesn't happen again. Maybe you have been fortunate enough to not get scammed, but after it's happened to you personally, you'll understand.
WildWolf

Dude that is fine, but the way you were coming off I felt like I was being attacked.
Again I'm working on the AMM right now.
I don't want people to feel like they are getting scammed. And yes, it's happened to me before too. I understand your concern.
Might have been better to say your concern once and then pm me with the rest. But again I understand and apologize for the inconvenience of the situation.
If I get approved for the AMM I will let you and everyone know. If not, then I will have the threat taken off.
That cool with you?
