Trying to get a group buy on the go for torsion bars, through (Performance Torsion Ltd) same as the last two:
1st group buy was here:
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/showthread.php?t=306909&highlight=group+torsion+bars
2nd one:
http://www.saxperience.com/forum/showthread.php?t=363151
Any bars upto 25mm
To help you choose the right size bars:
From what i've read these are the specs:
180-225lb = 21mm Torsion Bars
225-275lb = 22mm Torsion Bars
275-325lb = 23mm Torsion Bars
Price is £190 plus postage if we can get 10 people or more
Last time they allowed people to arrange there own courier if wanted aswell, think they charge £20 to post.

What lb rating are the torsion bars? a 23mm torsion bar from these guys could be the equivalent to a 21mm pugsport

The above is relevant. They should just be able to give you a table of specs if they know what steel they are using. I can't see them being much different as the range of sprung steels suitable for torsion bar use is limited.

If its from the same people in the rallyereg gb then the lb ratings the same as PSF ones

Sure its covered in the previous group buy linked, they where a recommened company in the 1st places, then there has been 2 group buys with them and I've not heard or know of any complaints etc. I'll double check though.

cant see why it would be a problem as everyone will want different size bars anyway

I found this out last time.
19mm 110lb/inch
20mm 135lb/inch
21mm 165lb/inch
22mm 195lb/inch
23mm 235lb/inch
24mm 280lb/inch
25mm 330lb/inch
Don't know if that's the same rating as PSF or not though.

Where did you get the specs for in the first post, they are the lb rating of the front springs to match the rear of the car! Might be the same though.

Does anyone have an e.mail addres or even better a telephone number ,
so i can get in touch with this company so as to arrange shipment?
Sorry for beeing a pain but its the first time i purchase parts on a group buy,
and from a company that doesnt have a web shop that adds shipping costs.
I am definitely in for a pair of 23mm bars
Thank you
Best regards Alex

Ye I'll contact them now ideally want afew more from 106 and rallye reg coz I doubt everyone who've put there name down will actually come up with the money/deposit. To get this underway. But I'll contact them now and see what they say with regards to deposits etc.
Last time it was just send a paypal payment direct to them with a note saying sax-p group buy etc to get the discount.

AlexFocusST
8th March 2012, 08:05
I managed to contact them and postage to Greece is available ,
So we just need to arrange payment ,
The guy i spoke to wasn't informed i think about an English group buy , so he gave me the whole price ?!?!
he only knew about one arranged in the Netherlands...

If this is still going I can ask on AXOC aswel as I'm sure there's a few on there that would be interested.
Have they got any other options for finish/colours yet? Last time I ordered some they only did Matt Black so I asked for them unpainted and got them powder coated at a place near me instead.
