Then demand a refund from the seller!! lol. But seriuosly, if we were all to chip in a few bucks its not one person would be losing all the money, it'd be split up. The impact of the failure won't be as bad.

Yeah. Cheap insurance, and the seller only sells one.
And we know what to spend our money on, and we could make a thread about what works; how, why, and how well.
There could be a whole forum dedicated to this.
Could be my next million dollar idea.

I want to bump this idea.... I think that any one of us NW mx-3 owners could test the parts... and the rest of us who aren't can keep them accountable... we all have spotless feedback....

I really like this idea, a lot. Like a social parts fund.

Democracy :)
I started this topic a long time ago when there were alot of topics asking whether or not something works.
If there are enough people interested in something, and are willing to throw in a few bucks for someone to try it out, it could save people money, plus, it would be great to know exactly how well it performs. I have a stock GS I would be willing to test stuff on, as well as my fast car. The OR crew could all give something a spin, for a larger demographic.
Since I started this topic, I've tried out a bunch of stuff, including the first ever projectors, Aluminum SRD style suspension parts, solid endlinks, etc...

If anyone has something they want tested, let me know, and i'll see how many others are interested.
