You must hate me for asking all of the questions but looking back through the last few pages I noticed you were using the Earl cores which were 19 and 25 row, then you switched to Setrab cores which are 15 and 20 row.

Lastly there is no shroud available at the moment.
I will speak to Pete tomorrow and see what he thinks about the use of a shroud.

The prices for buying the oil cooler alone dropped by $475 for Stage 1 and $275 for Stage 2. Is this correct? I assumed the savings would be greater for the more expensive version, ie. the other way around.
Also the prices of the "complete cooling solution" for stage 1 and 2 remained the same price and the savings were not passed on.
I'm not sure if this was a mistake or not but it works out to be $800 for a radiator and that seems very expensive, GB or not.
According to your price drop, I think the revised pricing should be $1170 for Stage 1 and $1520 for Stage 2 if my sums are correct. Feel free to correct me otherwise though. However, in this instance I think the Stage 2 should benefit from more discount than Stage 1, if that makes sense.
Also, can you confirm if the price is inclusive of the external thermostat?
Lastly, do you know of the estimated postage costs to Brisbane?

Hey mate,
the pricing you have referenced in the first quote was pre-group buy.
The reason we switched from the Earl's oil coolers to that of the Setrab, was purely to optimise mounting location to ensure maximum core efficiency.
In short the Setrab cores will see more airflow than the Earl's cores, as a result of the 135i front bar design.
FYI,
the difference in cost price between the respective Stage 1 & Stage 2 Earl's and Setrab cores, is not significant at all.
The figures from the second quote for the "Complete Cooling Solution" were group buy prices.
Finally the reduction in Stage 1 pricing in the third quote, was as a result of retaining the BMW OE thermostat and not using the MOCAL external stat', as found in the Stage 2 kit.
The use of the OE thermostat also reduces that number of Earl's fittings required and it also negates the use of the billet aluminium bypass/adapter plate, that is fitted to the oil filter housing in our Stage 2 kit.
Yes,
the cost of the PWR MT 5970 rad' is indeed $795.00 based on a GB with a minimum order of 5.
The PWR rad' retails for $808.50, shipping costs are $33 from the Gold Coast to Auburn and the 500 ml Motul MoCOOL we are supplying with every rad' is worth $43.99, with a total of $885.49 the GB price on the rad' is equivalent to a saving of around $90.
Lastly as per my explanation above the Stage 2 kit was not subject to a price revision, as there were no components deleted from the kit.
Whilst we did go from a 25 row Earl's core to a 20 row Setrab, our cost price for the two coolers is pretty much the same.
Yes,
the Stage 2 kit pricing is inclusive of the Mocal external thermostat.
Shipping to Brisbane for the complete kit will be about $35.
Cheers,
Justin.
