Believe me when I say I do not get special treatment for anything I say. What I doget, just like any other VRT customer is help at track events and help from MrA at all hours. I can tell you this, Dozzer had a problem with his car and went dwon to drop it off over the weekend, I know MrA was at the track and we got in touch with him and he left his car at MrA's house.....how many shop owners will go out of their way on the weekend to make something right.

I do not have a problem with you asking....maybe MrA should give me discounts for taking the crap I do from some members here!!!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but unless VRT has moved into a new business location, wasn't the "shop" at MrA's house in the first place?

Rarely do you hear about the good. This isn't just for VRT but is true of ANY company in our free market economy. To sum it up everyone do your research on who you chose to work on your car. If you don't think you can trust the person you are looking at go elsewhere. There are plenty of companies out there that do a superb job and its your job as a consumer to determine who you spend your money with.
WEST COVINA NISSAN socal forum might be an exception to this post. I thought of posting about how good my experience was by I'm waiting until there isn't one on the 1st page. Iv'e been waiting almost 2 weeks now.

Thanks for answering my question by the way Navy.

You cant be for real. It's amazing how far all these VRT guys will go. In a nut shell your saying it is ok that VRT cheated a bunch of our forum members and got caught, it is ok to deceive people and give fake dyno sheets (or dyno sheets that belong to someone else: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....277071&page=2), it is ok to charge a re-stocking fee on a used turbo kit for pete's sake.

All that is ok because there are some happy VRT customers that don't go on this forum.

Let me tell you something, a crook and a cheater is always a crook and a cheater, a con man will always be a con man, the only difference between the people on this forum and the other "happy" VRT customers is that they don't know what VRT is about and they got screwed and don't know anything about it.

You make me sick.


For the record every body should know that the GReddy turbo kit that VRT charged the ($1,500) re-stocking fee came out of Navygulf's car :

These people should be prosecuted.

How the hell do u know my car is fine? If it was fine...it wouldnt have been in the shop for 2months. i dont have a right to know for sure? or should i wait till my engine blows? Anyways my post had no mention of VRT and neither did the OP. Only thing i asked him was when he was asked to do this.

BTW

Well, I have tried to voice my opinion which you all seem to be able to do without getting into an all out argument but you see fit to jump way down my throat. I think it is funny that I cant say my piece but all of you can.

I appreciate you telling me since I am happy that I do not know I got screwed. The way you say that implies that all VRT customers were screwed. NOT THE CASE!

If this is the way you act then I am glad I make you sick. The feeling is mutual! As for the kit that you are talking about being mine, what does that have to do with anything? The guy who bought it sent payment to VRT....you can ask him where it went he is on the forums. So dont talk about what you dont know about!!!

At that point i didnt believe anything he said anymore and paid out of pocket for new stock suspension. So u tell me why would it take 2 months to ship something unless

1) really incompetent

2) knew my parts were missing/damaged and didnt want to admit it
