You cant get them mixed up come fitment anyway.... unless you are a grade A mongtard :lol: The M12 (turbo for the sake of argument) joints simply wont fit the M10 (NA) uprights. And the M10 joints will rattle like Joe in Jordan in M12 uprights :lol:

Paul, I guess a cost per number would be good. ie £x for 0-5, £ for 5-10 etc As you can see, 5 is doable easy, 10? who knows. And, yes lead time?

Apologies, sorry yes mine fitted fine. Just wasn't to sure of the difference between the NA & Turbo ones, but if uprights for the turbo ones are M12 then I would definetely notice the severe lack of tightness!
I was just a bit surprised that they look quite different to the ones that came off (similar to the ones shown in your photo)..The ones I replaced them with looked a bit beefier at the ball joints.

More detail tomorrow, but I think I've got agreement from eliseparts to supply at 200+vat. A saving of 29+vat on their normal price and cheaper than Eliseshop. http://www.elisepart...l-toe-link-kit/ I'm waiting to hear back from Elise shop. Will keep you all informed. Lee

I'm ready to buy ASAP too as want to get them fitted before my car limits day - can imagine that will put a nice amount of strain on my (assumed) original toe links.

Be very very sure about which version of the outer joints you need. It's not as simple as NA are one type and Turbo are another.

Also early turbot are different to later. I think the early turbot ones may be n/a ones before they decided to beef them up. :unsure:

All, I have forwarded this thread to Yvo for his viewing, so I am hopeful that he can see the level of interest and will be able to help us out with an even better price. Hold fire on purchases for now and I will report as soon as I hear... maybe even Yvo will post directly... I'm not sure if he has a vx220.org.uk account. Regards, Lee.

I do have an account but for some reason I wasn't able to get in earlier.

Anyway, always happy to do something. We can offer our kits at £189.95 + VAT
As this is over £75 you'll get free shipping in UK excluding Islands and Highlands.

You can find the deal here: http://www.elise-sho...y-p-502323.html

Offer valid till 14/02/2012

We have about 15 kits in stock at the moment. A new batch of 50 is expected to arrive next week, so we should be able to get them out fairly quick.

Working on some other very interesting VX projects as well :D
