Hi Guys,
Darkside Developments are now SouthBend Clutch and Flywheel Dealers for the UK and Europe. Their products have been tried and tested for years in North America and they are now starting to break on to the European Scene. They saw Darkside Developments as the company to assist them in doing that within the VAG TDI Market.
One of the most important points about SouthBend is that they have developed SILENT Single Mass Flywheel Kits for the 6 Speed VAG TDIs.
We all know that in the pursuit of big power, the dual mass flywheel has to go. The problem many people have with this is that Single Mass Flywheels give the annoying chatter at idle and low speeds. This is not too bad in an all out racer or drag car, but considering the vast majority of modified TDIs are driven daily, this can be a big drawback. No one wants to drive a car that sounds like it should be ploughing a field!
Please see the link for information on the 02M 6 Speed Kit
And this link for the 02J 5 Speed Kit
There are also Kits available for the 02Q 6 Speed (Mk5 Platform Vehicles), these will be listed on our website shortly. Pricing is similar to the 02M Kits.
Here are some photos provided by SouthBend:
Stage 2 and 3 Daily Driver Kits:
Stage 2 and 3 Endurance Kits:
SBCF0503TDI Silent 02M Flywheel:
Prices and details of each individual kit are available on our website (see the links above). Basically to do the group buy we require at least 5 people. Here is the discount we can give:
5 Units = £50 Discount
6 Units = £60 Discount
7 Units = £70 Discount
8 Units = £80 Discount
9 Units = £90 Discount
10 Units+ = £100 Discount
This is for any of the kits, regardless of retail price. If we have an overwhelming demand, the discount could be increased further, so basically the more people you refer this on to, the bigger your own discount will be!
Postage within the UK Mainland is FREE for the Group Buy, saving £12.
I can ship to anywhere in Europe; you can calculate shipping cost on the website by adding the kit to your Cart and inputting your address details.
Customers outside of Europe please get in touch so I can check with SouthBend on availability in your country (I don’t want to step on any other distributor’s toes). PLEASE NOTE - This group buy is unavailable for customers in the USA and Canada.
We require a deposit of £50 initially to secure a place in the group buy. This is only refundable if the group buy does not go ahead. Full payment will then be needed 5 days after the closing date. I am setting the closing date to Saturday 3rd December 2011 (just over 1 month). I would estimate delivery will be mid-December as long as everyone pays on time.
Payment is via Debit Card (over the phone, online or in person), Bank Transfer (to my business account), Credit Card (over the phone, online or in person, subject to 2% Fee) or PayPal (Subject to 4% Fee).
If you have any questions, please PM me with the subject ‘SouthBend Group Buy’.
Thanks!
