ay ay captain

maybe the didn't, care to shed some light?

what shlt is there to start? the gentleman maximariceboi asked and since there was no response I thought I would offer him a plausible explanation. I figured that since this thread announced a Rev 2 build almost a year and a half ago, it was a possible reason

hugs and kisses

I know you better than that. I know just how you roll. You haven't changed at all. Please stop with the hugs and kisses. It's nauseating already say what you really feel for once.

I agree its pretty pathetic to come in here and stir the pot.... We all know Terry has been patiently waiting, for something one off. This required many sources and lots of R&D time and money. We should all be glad people like Terry are willing to step outside the box from the cookie cutter builds. How do you expect the community to grow and learn with out people like him, Mike, Rich, adn many others who have pushed the limits.

I havent heard much about Japtrix in the past few months either. Seems like last year, all teh shops were posting all these builds. Now they are few and far between.

I guess no one wants to post a build that might get called as shotty work, etc... kinda sucks.

Hope Terry's car is actually progressing. I'm waiting on some new parts and am definitely starting to lose interest. I can only imagine how T must feel.

I go through serious withdrawal after a couple days of no boosting. Hang in there Rich, Terry. There is nothing worse than waiting in FI. Maybe that first day after a catastrophic failure. Maybe.

I just took my mind off my build and stopped calling Sharif.... It helped to make the 1 year pass by faster....

Knowing Terry... I sure he is on top of things...

Im sure it will be worth it in the long run for Terry. The wait im sure sucks, but im sure he has his reasons too improve what he's already doing and/or for taking more time.

I honestly forgot what a fast car feels like. Im closing in on 10 months FI-less. My new family swagger wagon SUV seems fast now..lol The more i wait, the more i keep adding too my build. Just bought a new house, so the build had too take a back seat. I have most the parts, but keep spending money on house stuff.

Id rather have a nice *** house than a fast *** car, but it does suck....

No matter how hard i try too pre-occupy my mind off my build, it always lingers in the back of my mind .

Where are you going with these statements????? When Terry is ready he will post what is going on with his car. Before you ask, yes I know.

Uh ohhhh.... my sense of fail just went off

I go through serious withdrawal after a couple days of no boosting. Hang in there Rich, Terry. There is nothing worse than waiting in FI. Maybe that first day after a catastrophic failure. Maybe.
The day after is worse than waiting, but only the first few times, after that is just like "thats about right"

I honestly forgot what a fast car feels like. Im closing in on 10 months FI-less. My new family swagger wagon SUV seems fast now..lol The more i wait, the more i keep adding too my build.
+1 on both of these, when I take the wife's XC90 with the Yamaha V8 in it she tells me I should put a number on the side and wear a helmet

I'm going exactly where I was saying.

Past months, no Japtrix threads, or even mentions
Past months, no shop build threads
Past months, excessive slamming of multiple shops (possible reason for lack of build threads, or maybe builds are cookie cutter )


everyone knows in this industry, no news is bad news.

+1....I agree.. The forums use to always have shop builds. Now they are few and far in between. Shop build thread has def died off a bit.

Japtrix usually doesnt post about their builds here or on other sites, so thats not unusual at all to me. I was just up there friday and they were busy working on cars so i know that could be a reason.

GTM, Forged, Etc... always had build threads now it seems they just stopped.
