    Cool SRB NEW PRODUCT - S13/180sx Carbon & FRP rear hatch - now with image of actual item!!

    Following on from this thread http://www.sxoc.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=413378

    The Chargespeed ones are great quality etc, but the pricing on them has gone up since the exchange rates change 14 months ago and holding stock of them is a pain as it's too costly to import them as required given the huge box size!
    It's on that basis that we feel it's time to push ahead with the tooling to make them in the UK now.

    So, from now until the end of February, we'll be collecting advanced orders at a special introductory price, as follows:

    Fibreglass hatch £200 instead of £255
    Carbon hatch £300 instead of £375
    Carriage £25 to most parts of the UK mainland. Overseas, Scottish Highlands, offshore Islands etc etc, please email sales@srbpower.com with your FULL posting address for a quotation on shipping.

    In order to get one at the above price, we require a NON REFUNDABLE 50% deposit please.

    From March 1st, the tooling should be completed and the products ready to be made and shipped - although it's also subject to the boxes being delivered to us on time in order for them to be shipped out. Collection is welcome of course

    If anyone has a special requirement - a super light weight version maybe? We can produce yours with less material or a better resin or both, as required. The better resin option will increase the cost by around £30.

    The carbon we use is the same type as Seibon and will of course match up with our own carbon roof skins and doors should you already have those

    EDIT> 19/03/2010 to add this image of the 1st Fibreglass one out the mould

    may sound silly but would a carbon one crack if drilled for a BGW to be fitted? id hate to spend hard earned cash and then balls it up, if it will crack after a few months i would leave it spoilerless

    also would it need a lexan rear window? or do you make your std rear glass fit?

    If you drill carbon carefull, start small and get bigger, it won't crack. The biggest question about a big wing will be the downforce applied to a thin sheet of carbon - it's likely to push it in a bit. I'd suggest fixing the wing stays to the very edge of the hatch so it's got maximum support, or fix them to the boot floor, through 2 slots in the hatch.

    Would really like a FRP boot The one thing I need is a S13 FRP bonnet, well more like a lightly re-inforced bonnet skin as a base to sort mine from.

    I've personally never weighed a standard S13 hatch, but I have been told the hatch and glass weighs around 35kgs and an frp hatch and lexan screen weighs around 13.5kgs.

    Bonnet I have no idea on the oem, but I know Chargespeed ones weigh around 10kg boxed, wrapped, with wood pieces on the corners for transport
