Bring out the ban hammer.... I'm assuming I'm gonna come back and see 20 pages of personal info on this guy... haha. I kinda feel bad but then I read through all the old scam threads and all the rage comes back... Hope you get it resolved quickly. If you get proof you needed them modded, you can ask for him to reimburse you for the cost and it'll get solved without incident...

so did he SCAM you or just lie? if he sold you the injectors and you actually got them its kind of not a scam... just a misleading ad. none-the-less, i guess that qualifies him for the bad sellers list

well he did send me injectors they just don't fit my car, I researched them and they are for RX-7's and other nissan engines and he told me he had them on his car. I left him bad feedback and linked it to the thread so I don't think he'll be ripping anyone else off. I just didn't want to title the thread beware of liar. lol.

Well he has been banned from all this so you won't have to worry about him ripping anyone else off. Big ups to the mods.
