So you think they marked up the kit an additional $1570 for no reason? Giving them the benefit of the doubt, something has to have changed from their original estimate (e.g. material availability, market price, low demand, higher machining cost than expected).

Aside from this, the 370z tension rod will definitely require a larger stock than the Silvia rods you posted. Going to a larger stock can be pricey (this can be seen by going to grainger) and you can't ignore this or compare directly. It's apples and oranges.

As mentioned previously, calling them directly is probably worth your time. I doubt they will lower by $1000's, but you might be able to get them down or at least find out the reason for the high price. Hopefully I didn't waste too much of your time. Good luck with your search.
