Dude CIN Motorsports is a great shop and they've worked on plenty of Z's including full builds. I don't see why you would bash them in this man. I agree that STS has behaved less than favorably here and they probably have a few things to work out with the kit. But I would question your bias just as much as you're questioning theirs. You did have a business dealing gone South with them which has obviously pissed you off with them.

I am still waiting to see what they do for me... Yes they have been in contact with me a whole lot more then my shop but when I talked to them last it was with the national sales manager and it sounded like I wouldnt be able to get a refund at all.
CIN is not a bad shop from what I hear plus they offered to help me out. Plus they are authorized dealers so that would have made this whole ordeal a lot better.

However I am putting people on notice that whatever they (CIN) retort with is based off a long term relationship with STS which has made them ALOT of money. Therefore I woulds say its is biased based off a vested interest..

STS was unethical with me,and it is proven that they have been unethical with others as well, nuff said in my opinion.
Correct,however not on my end.I am a man of great ethics, STS has proven otherwise. You would think after pissing us off,blowing up a motor in Sharif's shop they would get the hint and give that poor guy a pass on his restocking fee to save face..I guess they are run by a bunch of morons..

CIN is a couple of hard working stand up guys that are trying to make a living for themselves while putting out cars that people can enjoy at a VERY reasonable price. They are simply trying to make a name for themselves on this forum and it seems like you want to stop them from doing that. I mean even going back to the thread they made about the two cars they were going to be doing the kit on you had to chime in with a sarcastic comment saying,
So was this turbo ever completed or what?

CIN is a great shop, they have helped me out plenty in the past. Very knowledgeable and hard working staff. I doubt they are making tons of money with STS, only know of two kits installed by them (could be more) so far.
After reading the entire thread I think the only one responsible for all these problems is the manufacturer (STS).
I hope STS does the right thing and gets your issues resolved

A lot of good vendors on this site. Z should look completely different (again) since you seen it last. I will call you guys up or make a thread once I get my new apartment setup to invite everyone over for a small party. Hope all is well man, c-ya!

no I still mess around with that one from time to time. I was drunk and threw a fortune cookie at her one night and that was the straw that broke the camels back apparently. Its cool though it would have happened eventually, I kept her on the side for a while but decided she really wasn't someone I wanted to be with.

The $500 restocking fee, for a turbo kit that was never ready to ship at the time of order VS pissing off the entire 50,000 plus members of MY350z.com, that seems to be an easy one for me to figure out,and Im no customer service expert..
They really have gone above and beyond at destroying themselves in the VQ community forever in my honest opinion.
After a 45 minute conversation with their Rep, Wild bill who actually is a well respected mustang guy,I felt a bit better about them and thought they would make a good faith effort to actually resolve some customer issues, however after reading this I am simply fired up to the point of no return..I mean how fukcing stupid is Rick Squires and the band of money hungry a$$holes he has employed?Do they have an ounce of common sense when it comes to customer service??
And if I were anyone on this board, I would not listen to a thing anyone from C.I.N> motorsports has to say, as their opinion is very objective as they are one of the leading STS distributers in the US..So anything they say is stricly geared towards the sales of more kits to the VQ market, which they are VERY unfamiliar with..Myself and Shariff have been turbocharging the 350Z for well over 3 years. Just because a company puts in 2 STS kits on a VQ, does not make them an EXPERT in the platform by any means..Dont be fooled people,DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE!!
font size editted way to big with this much wording
