Andy’s Build Thread- Transmission Issues.

[Andy33]

Eagerly awaiting the Black Friday codes to start ordering parts.
Saw MeanCycles had a 5% code (TURKEY). The discount isn't huge and even after discount parts "seem" to be cheaper at www.oneidasuzuki.com

Pricing is as follows;

MC- $427.50 USD ($567.80 CAD) after discount. (REVO kit includes more plates than buying individually- NO GASKET)
**With gasket and discount $450 USD (597.69 CAD)

1S- $394.19 USD. ($523.56 CAD) Includes only parts listed above plus gasket.

Yes, its not an apples to apples comparison. Based on this the One Suzuki setup is around $73.56 USD ($97.70 CAD) cheaper but is not a complete swap. My understanding is I'd have to reuse a few items.

Part of me thinks the extra money would be well spent to have a completely new clutch (REVO Kit) that can be installed with no issue. The cheapskate part of me thinks go the One Suzuki direction....

decisions, decisions....

Due to the exchange rate and only a 5% discount at MeanCycles, I'm likely going to pass on the EVO Shift star kit. Might get this at a later date.

Make sure you are comparing prices with shipping included as well.
Both Meancycles and Oneida are great places to get parts but sometimes Onieda's shipping prices can be on the high side......just something to be aware of.

I’ve ordered from revo plenty of times
it isn’t over night or 2 or 3 days
More like 6 to 8 weeks!!

Thank you for this. Luckily the order would be over MC's free ship amount so all in I feel they would be the better choice.
I'll need to go a bit further with the checkout at Onieda to get an exact comparison.

My sister is flying home with the parts at Christmas as she lives in Houston now. Us Canadian's need to be creative when it comes to shipping as International shipping along with duty/taxes can really hurt the wallet.
Taking a 30% hit on the dollar is bad enough...

I'd be ordering from MeanCycles so fingers crossed its in stock. Did send a parts request email to confirm.

And MeanCycles for the win.

After discount and shipping factored in, MeanCycles price on the Revo Clutch kit and Gasket was $9 cheaper than the smaller parts list from OneideaSuzuki. (Oneidea's shipping prices were ridiculous)

Now I'll wait for my sister to fly home on Dec 23.
