Hello everyone.

I guess I'll officially check in here for roll call... even though I'm late to the party... errrrr... I mean funeral.

I agree with dave079 and the other members who expressed no sympathy for Mike Alvarez. Good riddance indeed. One down... One more to go...

I just hope that when Scott's time comes... he dies in a fire. That would be the epitomy of karma and irony wrapped into one.

They say the true measure of a man is how he is remembered when he leaves the world behind. From what I can tell his legacy will not be a pleasant one.

These are not his Megan/RA/Chinese calipers they are a two piece rotor with a spacer in the OEM caliper to allow the rotor to fit here is his description of it below. I would not do buisness with him, but before I knew who made them I looked at them I didn't examine them but the rotors looked nice and the spacer/shim looked like it was a good idea. My first impression was that I was impressed not sure why everyone gets so worked up when I say that?? Like i said I doubt he designed them considering he couldn't make a strut bar that was even close to fitting.
I am confused, is the STB good or bad?

Sorry to take this a little off topic...

Brutal, I guess it was not even close to fitting....not even close to fitting there was a huge group buy on driver and they didn't fit at all you would almost want to test fit something like that before shipping a bunch of them out at least most people would do a test fit

Hmm. Either a 'friend' of MA's, or one of his co-conspirators. Either way, a tool.

I can only assume you're referring to Mr.A based on the past and what has come to pass.

Damn, I just got done reading this entire thread. I didnt know the guy, but I got a pretty good picture of what his life was all about. I guess I can compare him to a suicide bomber. He is gone but the damage is done.
