Just out of curiosity, why do you guys want a single kit? Do you think there's any benefit to it in this situation?

i dont think they are related but i might be mistaken i always thought stage 6 was a separate shop, btw they do some sick work there too, but they are pricey! the owner from speed craft is in jail for the next few decades and they sold off all his stuff from his shop so if he owned stage 6 i would think that it would have been liquidated as well

Hey guys, I used to surf the Supra forums and I have heard a lot of GOOD things about the David H kit, which the the Kit that nonturbo sells for 1.7k and 4k..I asked about the kit and everyone said it is one of the best kits available for the supra...Now im not saying that he can do the same for the Z, but his chances sure do look good..he knows a lot about turbo's and such....and I personally would rather get a non brand kit that works realllly well for 4k than pay 6-7k for a name brand that works just as well...thats just my 2 cents...thanks

Nothing against David H and his Non Turbo kits.

But you have only posted 4 replies on this board, so obviously you have not been lurking here much lately. And what would make you Stand up for his Company and recomend his kit for everyone here on this board?

You said you lurk on supra forums and most Supra kits I sell sell on Supra forums are SP kits, Twins turbo kits and name brand stuff like HKS, and Greddy. Do you own a Supra or do you own a 350z? How can you recommend a kit over another kit example like Greddy. Which is Name recognized in this industry and Well proven by many OWNERS who actually have them. Greddy went thru 2 years or R&D on their own cars and not on Customers cars. So next time you decide to help your friend out. Let David come out with a kit first, and give us a REAL price, not estimate price and show us REAL numbers of his kits capability. Then you can come on here and recommend that kit to us. And we will decide our opinions on this board.

There are close to 40 people running the kit. All have been happy so far. Many have heard good words regardless.

The most kits sold for the TT are GReddy, HKS, and SP. For the N/A you will see my kit, the Turbonetics (not very potential and manifold cracks), and BoostLogic kit (Awesome kit that's very high quality.

Hopefully in the near future we can put this kit out.

I'm not doubting your ability to make a kit. Maybe skeptical but not bashing or doubting. But what I was trying to make a point of when someone who don't own this kit for his Supra or his Z. And coming in here and try to win hearts of many Z owners to Donate their car for guinea pig. Its crazy. I hope you do well because Z guys love power and the market is still very wide open.

Cheers,

Jeff

I doubt any damages will be done but if they are, I will pay for them. Can't give the kit for free but I can give you a good discount on it.
