Glad you're digging it! It's funny how people love to use the S2k as the benchmark for shifting (I hear this often, actually!). Thanks for the love!
That's all accurate. We have a very limited supply of our classic Esco design, but you have to contact us to have one put on order. We'll have...
Generally, when we have customers that are using maximum reductions that are struggling finding gears, the answer is that the adjustments are too severe for your current shifting style. It's critical that you find a set of adjustments that allows a very nice, natural shift. Effort should not be...
Yessir. We are going to be restocking almost everything over the next couple of weeks. The kits aren't able to be backordered via the site right now, but if you want to get an order in so yours ships as soon as they restock, shoot me an email via our site with the kit you need, full name...
The design isn't 100% final, but we are expecting to be a bit heavier, have improved opacity on the outer plastic for crisper lettering, and a slightly different tactile feel to the surface (a tad more gripy to the bare hand), compliments of a new material choice for the outer shell. :)

Sure. So we have resumed production of the Esco V1's in limited quantities. They're available on the site when in-stock, but we've only got about 10-20/wk, and they sell rather quickly. We've got some all aluminum escos in a number of colors (that are a bit heavier than our V1 insulated version)...
Here's an image of that bag's contents. There are 4x M6 screws, an o-ring, and then a screw through a black cylinder. The black cylinder is the cable support sleeve, the screw in it is the cable support bolt, the o-ring is the cable support o-ring.
Ahhh, sorry to hear that. Customs seems to strike almost randomly on some shipments. For our friends up North in Canada, domestic vendors include Garage 16, Teknotik, SpeedFactorRacing and JDM Addiction. In the UK, like you said, we have Tegiwa and Dream Auto. Although most vendors do not have...
Just letting anyone following this thread know: we just shipped all backorders and have about 60 units in-stock. They may move quickly. More are in production already. :)

Glad you dig it! To me, the stage 2 is what I wish the car came with stock.

Working on filling backorders currently. Keep an eye on our instagram for announcment of restocking. They may go quickly, so if you're dying to get one, put one on backorder today so you are in before these restock and possibly sell out again. We're working on a bigger batch for the 3rd run to...
Really glad you're both enjoying those stage 2 kits. The stage 3 kit has a lot of interesting features and definitely gives you that race car feel, but we also tell people who are on the fence that the stage 2 kit is a very capable upgrade with a very appreciable change from stock. Thanks for...
Can't give exact details yet, but you're getting warmer. Although we prefer to think of "black" as just "very, very dark purple" and "red" as "purple with almost no blue". :-P
Yessir, the V1's are sold out but should restock later this month.

Product development is a tricky mistress. Our dedication is always to quality over urgency when it comes to new products and their release. We wouldn't judge you if you got something else sooner. We are nearing having Escos's in new materials and colors, but unfortunately, there are some loose...
Generally, we do not recommend greasing anything that we don't provide grease for or recommend greasing of in install guides. We also suggest using care when picking greases as different types of grease can attack plastics and rubber. Generally speaking, the grease that mechanics normally have...
While possible, doing this increases the risk of over-extending the angular range of the pivot joint where the cable goes from the flexible mid section to the rigid section that actuates the lever on the gearbox. If that joint is ever damaged, it requires replacement of the cables (we have...
