I was planning on taking the deposit and payment side of life then send it in one hit for the UK based people.
I'm in discussions with Frank about the couple of guys in Aus who are after the diffs, it seems silly not to send the money direct to him and get the diff's sent direct to yourselves.
Cheers

I think we had this chat before didnt we?
I class the front diff as the diff that drives the front wheels, and the centre diff the one that splits the drive between the front and rear wheels regardless of their position in gearboxes or transferboxes.
The front diff is the one Frank has made before and replaces the 'open' front diff on the front wheels.
The centre diff is one we are asking him to develop if there is enough interest and he is willing to.
Please confirm you are happy with being in the 'front' diff list.
Cheers

Yes centre diff is in the gear box and front diff is in the transfer box. But yes i'm after the front diff.

I'm in Aberdeen, looking for the front diff at the moment and centre if the prices are good.

I think you will find members are fine paying a deposit up front but sending it to Modena direct. Frank can not say it hard work reciving money. Just make sure everyone has a deposit and pay over a week so he ain't getting messed aboutDC313 wrote:gtir_woody wrote:Are payments going directly to Modena for these?

Deposits when I've heard back from Frank confirming up on everything and when people this side have confirmed locations.

Yea thats fine with me, Makes my life easier if anything. Will arange when I hear back and see the best way of sorting postage then, as he was wanting to send them over on one pallet in one hit so we could save on cost then the plan was for me to distrubute throughout the UK.
Cheers

Sounds good, just keep us updated. Quicker we get the front one done and dusted the better. Then I can put my name down for a centre as well.

Trouble is he dose the front clocks the cash then the center won't happen. Hold him to his word with both lists at once

Johnny probably has a point, he might do the fronts then not bother doing the centre diff so just put me down for the centre now as well as the front and see if he can get both run's done at the same time...

I note Canada has a few names to consider
https://www.canadagtir.com/forum/for-sale/modena-front-diff-and-maybe-centre-diff
Australia too. Surprised there's not more?

Sounds like shalom lives quite close to modena and can meet frank. Probably worth synchronising discussions...

Latest list with locations and comments.
And the more the merrier! I'll chase Frank up as not heard back from him, and look into those other forum links.
Many Thanks

Just to keep everyone in the loop please see the latest reply from Frank:
"Hi Dave
Ok sounds good
As I said before the price for the front diff will be $1100AUD plus some shipping the centre because of its design will be more as its ramp and plate type
Will try and do some costings tomorrow
Best regards
Frank."
With the current conversion rate to the Aus Dollar that comes to £588.94 (according to google)
+ the shipping + the import duty & tax.
Hopefully we'll have the centre diff price soon!
Cheers

Hi All, this is the latest from Frank and my reply. (Still chasing costings)
"Hi Dave
Looks like it may blow out a little
Will get the guys to order some more material for the fronts
The centre is being detailed on the last few points so as soon as the fronts are done we will commence
I will take a stab at the ramp details but I think we need to find a car with a good enough driver to get some feed back
I think this will be the best solution I have a rough idea but the best is to make it aggressive but may not suit the wife using the car to go shopping
Leave it with me I will put some thought in it maybe to setups in the one set of ramps
I will quote it first as this will be a true motorsport setup
Should make a few dicks hard !!!!!!!!!!
Regards
Frank"
"Hi Frank,
Thanks for the email, What sort of ramp angles were you thinking for the centre diff both for both when under drive and coasting?
I think we can go quite agressive as it is a 'track' upgrade, but not too silly, as most of the people who are after them will be more track focused rather than gravel/snow rally stage. And defo not be letting the missis near it for the shopping run! But happy to take your lead to on what you recommend for it.
I'll put some feeders out about preferences and potential testing for one.
Keep us updated.
Cheers
Dave"
So what do the people what re ramp angles?
I think if we get one made and tested it may delay the whole program, but would end up with better results long term. Again views appreciated. I guess if we were to go down this route a driver from Aus would make sense who has time to have gearboxes in and out to swap diffs over?
Or we take Franks lead and see how it turns out?
Cheers

I personally say take his lead off his experiance as even testing them will take a lot of time and I personally think he will get very close anyway. From what I hear this is why the last group buy had people drop out they just could not wait that long
