That is in Aussie Dollars.
We need at least 5 people on any of those items to give me a chance of negotiating a Club purchase price.

dont waste your money on the RRM timing module or piggyback.
get all your mods done and then get a piggy back installed. A haltech interceptor costs about $1500 including all the dyno runs to get the best out of the tune its given which when you work out the cost of the RRM gear in AU with shipping you'll come close to this value anyway.
The haltech can do everything plus more that the RRM timing module and piggy back do and seeing as its customised to your car it will get a higher gain.
RRM cant make an extractor that lasts longer than two weeks (and they couldn't care less about this), would you be trusting something they make which interferes with the operation of your ECU?? I know I wouldn't.

It doesn't matter, Josh, we ship all to somewhere in Australia, be it Cairns or Melbourne, then re-distribute from there.

Thanks for your thoughts Ryan_C. I'll take your expert opinion on the matter and chuck the Advanced Timing module.

I'd hardly call it a expert opinion!
i just wouldn't trust RRM to buy anything off them again and would be worried about frying my ECU using their piggy bag. It ended up costing me $230 to get the flex joint repaired in my extractors and I am lucky I picked up the change in the exhaust note otherwise I imagine I could potentially have risked damaging the motor...
On the note of pulleys I have the RRM V2 (has the hardened steel sleeve) which I have decided I cant be bothered putting on. That MAM one you've listed is actually $125US ($180ish AU). I'm asking $150 for mine inclusive of registered or express post at the buyers choice.

yeah actually, i read some of the reviews and testimonys that are out on the piggy back. Thumbs down. Not enough of a gain for the money. And im really tempremental when spending money when it comes to my CJ

As much as I like them, I'm not keen on shelling out so much for something which already works. Still if you're keen, ask nickd @ preston motors to see if he can get us a good deal.
