looks to be end all be all
That was in the description for the TB heater. The description for the copper spacer says, "Use the copper if it ever snows in your area". The copper does insulate a small amount, but not as much as the ISO thermal spacer (which is probably made out of non-conducting resin).

So what you're saying is that I shouldn't get the copper and just stick with the regular ISO thermal spacer?

Yes. The best spacer for hot climates is the ISO thermal.

The only discount for 5 units is free shipping.. what a deal!
No joke, he doesnt want to step on his vendors toes.
He told me that we can have a 25% discount if we have a wholesale license. anyone here have one?
I'm going to hit up my buddy at Acme 2 and see if he's willing to run with it.
He just bought a Z himself.. so we'll see .. ill find out today

I live in Germany, so maybe the copper spacer would benefit me better.

Man a 25%discount would put me at right about 441 after everything is said and done with the iso-thermal spacer (Discount and 122 rebate) That would be great

I'm thinking about possibly getting the 1/2 spacer for the extra 20 Bucks. Do you really need the strut bar or is it something that would tottaly suck to be without?

He asked for a wholesale license but I'll call him tomorrow and ask.

I havent been able to get a hold of my buddy at Acme2 but just remembered my pops has a wholesale license. The only thing is that its for the semi conductor industry and Tony did mention that a automotive license is preferable.

I guess we'll find out tomorrow..

There really isn't any such thing as a "wholesale license". When I sign up to get stuff wholesale, usually the seller just wants my tax ID number. I have a business license, but nobody has ever asked me for that.

Got a hold of Tony and it looks like we need a reseller license.

I am waiting for my pops to get back from Taiwan to see if we can use his license for the purchase.

The discount will be 20% off of the mrevs and 25% off the spacers.

We may also need to reimberse whoever is using their reseller license for any taxes which may apply.

Definately not going as smooth as expected.. we'll pull it off somehow.

Anyone here have a reseller license?

I don't know what state he's in, but in NV, there's no such thing as a "reseller's license". You can get a business license from the state, which I have. You can get a sales tax ID number from the Secretary of State, which I also have. I have wholesale accounts at National Performance and Planet Hyundai. All I had to give them was my tax ID number.

Can you give him a call if you have time to do so? Let me know, I'll PM you his contact info. It's actually the same number on his site.

my friend also wants to get into the action as well.. so that makes 6 sets

VegassaeZ - both
i8acobra - mrev2 only
702Fairlady - both
clearsector - both
ensmuns - plenum spacer (probably need copper because it gets pretty cold here)
Z35TH - both (not 100%.. told to get back to him when the time is near)
touge_g35 - both

Well due to some postings & a few PMs I went ahead and ordered the Mrev2 & the iso copper 5/16 spacer. The post I am referring to is this one on MY350Z.COM

http://my350z.com/forum/showthread.p...highlight=mrev

So hopefully once it is installed and if I can get dynoed to post then I will can get that rebate.
