Agreed. I think GTM has some quality control issues with their motors that they are not willing to admit and it has become obvious that the problem extends beyond MRC's doorstep. And I have issues with George (a non-employee who is in fact a friend & customer who hangs out at the shop) posting in a formal capacity portraying himself as an expert and authority. I think the admins should seriously reconsider George's status as a sponsor.

However, it now appears that GTM wasn't trying to screw r0mey. Look how Julian threw r0mey (a loyal friend and customer who went to bat for MRC countless times on my350z) under the bus. Why in the hell wouldn't Julian have checked for a fuel and/or spark problem before pulling the motor and starting this drama with GTM??? It looks like Julian betrayed his friend r0mey just to win a battle against GTM. It's absolutely shameful and disgusting.

yes, just because Julian tried to throw Romey under the bus and was culpable in the failure of the engine, it doesn't mean GTM doesn't have issues. don't forget people...

haha. They ignore ALOT of legitimate questions and distract from legitimate issues and questions. Kind of frustrating, but some of us know better.

I can hardly even get a reply.

Hopefully some people have learned some good knowledge from this thread...and NO that doesn't mean "build your own motor". I would actually highly recommend against it, unless you absolutely know what you're doing. Leave it to the professionals.

There are other good, competent, and honest shops out there. You just have to be willing to travel the distance to one of them if necessary.

In due time my friend, in due time.

I let the cat out of the bag on g35 driver...I filed small claims against MRC yesterday. MRC might have gotten the letter today or might get it tomorrow since they are so close to New Brunswick. Lets hope he doesn't just ignore it like he ignored my BBB complaint too.
