Ok, here's the deal:
I've been on backorder with Monkeywrench racing for about 4 months now (originally for the Power FC and Datalogit), now just for the Datalogit (I bought a used Power FC off NC.org). Monkeywrench has told me they have no ETA on the Datalogits.
After doing some investigation, they're right. Rotary Performance (Click Here (http://www.rx7.com/)) is the only company in the US that imports Datalogits. That's right, they corner the market on datalogits, and any other distributor is not a prime distributor, they get them through Rotary Performance.
After talking today with Rotary Performance, they said that FC Datalogit, based in New Zealand (Click Here (http://www.fc-datalogit.co.nz/)), who produces the Datalogit are a group of guys who do this on the side, in other words, this is not their permanent jobs. Although Rotary Performance has told the Datalogit group that the demand is incredible, these guys don't seem to care too much about it, and when they get to it, they make some. Normal shipments to Rotary Performance are about 15 units per shipment, and they are currently backordered with over 30 units. Rotary Performance has not seen a shipment for over 4 months. Unfortunately, Datalogit does not have a phone # and rarely answers emails. One RX-7 owner has gotten so desperate, that he is flying to New Zealand and trying to find someone at Datalogit to buy from.... Now, I'm not quite that desperate, but close ;)
All I want to do is rent your Datalogit for a dyno session in order to tune my PowerFC. I only need it for about a week, but I will need everything including the software to do this. I am willing to pay $100 for the week, and I will pay for shipping to me and from me. I have a FedEx.com account, and can send you shipping labels and the money. All you would need to do is box up the Datalogit equipment and software, tape on my shipping label, and drop it off at a FedEx site or Kinkos location.
If someone is willing to do this, I can provide any information about me you want (except SSN). I am well known on these boards, and I'm not trying to steal your Datalogit, I just have SCCA Nationals upcoming, and after this past weekend's base dyno in comparison to without the PowerFC, well, I need to tune it very badly ;)
If interested, PM me, or e-mail me at b1mmer@earthlink.net
As for those that can verify I am legit, PM: Nocones, Autxr, LoCore, KEnny Heiser 3, etc.... Thanks, Aaron
