Lon, maybe I could try the feel of your kit if you have time?
Just buy it Marin
You can always sell it later on if you decide not to install it. I'm sure there are tons out there that would like one of these
And I'll PM you about the test-drive.

I believe the $350 shipped pricing is only for Continental U.S.A.
Everywhere else will be additional cost, collected by Ronald @ AutoSolutions when time comes.

IIRC there was added cost but it was very minor.
It shipped via USPS as well.

Did you check with Ron on a max # for the GB?
IIRC he only likes to run small batches to maintain quality
I thing that the last GB was limited to 10, but then there were extra available.

is it safe to assume that installation will be more than the SS kit itself?

IIRC last GB the run was for 16. That was the minimum.

Installation? We don't need no stinking installation

I was the last one @ #10
Everything after that depended on overrun which I think ended up about 16.

....I don't think anyone missed out that wanted one though

You guys won't be disappointed with this mod.

Z4M actually came with BMW SSK. I've talked to Ron several times on the spec and told him what I like from SSK. The main goal was to have precision. The throw was not shorten much because it will be hard to shift if it was shorter.

It cost me just over $200 for an Indy to install. NorCal guys know the place but there are DIY available for those brave souls.

As mentioned above, Ronald @ AutoSolutions aimed for a small batch run last time, and depending on how the quality of the batch comes out, he may have extras available for sale.
So in response to the question about maximum number of people, I don't know, and I think neither does Ronald; but you guys should still try to put in an order anyway.
Worst case scenario, he'll refund your payment in full, if there are not enough kits to go around.

Kinda looks like there might be a bit of interest in this product.... This GB took off like a rocket and is still going up.
