No doubt most with 1J's have seen this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350370973205&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

To copy their sales pitch:

Introducing a brand new1JZGTE clear timing belt cover.
Our cover is made of Polycarbonate Plastic.
What are the benefits?
It's tough, lightweight, heat-resistant (140° Celsius) and ,of course, clear.
Really nice with after market camgears.
Fit All 1JZGTE. (Except 1JZ VVT-i)
(replacment for your OEM timing belt cover)
Group Buyer are welcome 5-10 pieces.
We can offer a discount. (Upto 30% discount)







As per the ebay ad, these sell for $139ea inc postage (ono).

I'm wondering, if I can get enough people on board, how much we can bring them down to.

In no rush to start this one... but once I feel we have good numbers, I will then approach them.

I will admit, I havent consulted Peter on posting this group buy, but hopefully, based on the fact that my previous spark plug group buy went without too much of a hitch (aside from waiting for supplier), I'd like to anticipate that I would have his approval.

Obviously, anyone expressing interest here is not entering into a financial commitment given that a final price has not been established.

Harley, given they are advertised for $140 on fleabay, it might be a bit of a hard ask to get lower than a hundred... but you dont know if you dont try :-)
