Bell Raceworks Rear Differential Brace

Bell Raceworks is offering a promotional Group Buy for their rear differential brace. The standard pricing is $129 +shipping. This Group Buy is for $100 shipped (USD only). Add another $10 if you want the device powdercoated in clear. Otherwise select Red, Black or Gold for no extra cost.

[edit]

This Group Buy has closed. But there's good info throughout the tread here, so if you're researching this brace, by all means read through it, then continue back into the Review thread that started it all.

There are two different braces available for the G37. One is specifically designed for use with the OEM differential cover, and the second is designed to fit over aftermarket diff covers, as well as the OEM cover. According to Bell Raceworks, these braces fit both the Coupe and Sedan, both RWD and AWD configurations. Props to 4DRZ for taking one for the team, and bringing this to our attention.

The plan here is to collect membership interest here in posts and PM, and once all 10 slots are filled, I’ll share a Promo Code through PM, and you can order directly. The minimum buy-in is 10 people, but if a bunch of members jump into this over 10, that's cool. Let's see what happens, and how long it takes.


[edit]

...and it didn't take long at all. The group buy is ending tomorrow morning, Jan 10th. Which, coincidentally, is my birthday, so... happy birthday to me, LOL.

Here’s the running list of Group Buy participants:

01 ) Rochester
02 ) slartibartfast
03 ) SupraOfDoom
04 ) projectpanda13
05 ) GdaddyNY
06 ) The Pope
07 ) Entcee
08 ) jpowersjr2
09 ) slowg562
10 ) Corprin
---------------------------- [ minimum ]----------------------------
11 ) nelledge
12 ) thezinfan
13 ) mrcool007
14 ) Mike in Seattle
15 ) kRAM
16 ) redsoxfan5
17 ) bPChaos
18 ) Lt8che
19 )
20 )


[edit]

As a side, Bell Raceworks just told me they had 18 orders come through with the promo code set up for this Group Buy, which is exactly the number of people who stepped up, and followed through. I think that's awesome.

Whereas this one is designed to work with larger aftermarket diff covers, as well as the OEM cover:

The group buy applies to both OE and finned diff cover versions?

Yes, either one.

The one for aftermarket diff covers works both for those and the OEM.
The one for the OEM diff cover only works with the OEM diff cover.
According to Bell Raceworks, both work with the Coupe or Sedan, RWD or AWD.

Might as well put me on the list too!

Which one are you going with? I have the OEM cover, but who know if I'll upgraded at some point.
