Yeah, it makes life tough doesn't it. I mean I can't possibly have a red filter ... that would suck!

No blue elements from Alta. Only Red.

So any chance of just a silicon Hose?????????????????????

MiniFr34k · Jul 2nd, 2005, 10:27 AM

by the looks of things this group buy may not happen due to lack of interest

so far its only:

me, maximuss, and liam that want the cai and hose

kev and john want the hose only.

ill have to see if the vendor is still willing to sell at this price. (liam can u pls confirm if its a yes or no? )

I'm thinking I might be up for one depending on whats happening with the one I've paid for... put me down as a definate maybe for a kit

but still find out if they can do the hose on its own too.

Cheers

Pete, I just want to try and tee up a time with Tiaan to go for a spin in his car to make sure, I reckon I'm about 80% yes.

MiniFr34k · Jul 3rd, 2005, 02:44 AM

Fair enough, ill give yas to the end of this week is that ok?

minigolf · Jul 3rd, 2005, 06:25 AM

What do you reckon the warranty issues are with these??? I am keen on an intake but was thinking of JCW to not cause any warranty problems?

minigolf · Jul 3rd, 2005, 08:20 AM

Not sure to be honest, but really I can't see it being a huge problem, but if you're that concerned speak to your dealer and don't rely on what "I think".

Todd! · Jul 3rd, 2005, 10:01 AM

I positive that you can get different colored filters.

There was a thread on NAM about it... an ALTA rep said they do, but most have red, cause it is best to show up dirt. Give them a yell about it.

From what ive read, no warranty problems UNLESS the filter is directly linked to the cause of the problem. HOWEVER i dont know if this is 100% true.

edit: good to see ur in Liam

(and i will ask specifially for a BLUE filter for you

)

Thanks Pete, I've asked the question on NAM, so we'll see what happens.
