I purchaed mine last friday from him, but I have yet to recieve a tracking number from the ****ing idiot. I tried several times to contact him but no response until last night when i threatened to put a stop on the payment. He replied saying "they were sent out and i'll send you a tracking number when UPS emails me". But sure enough, this morning no emails no nothing. Anyone have his phone number ?

well i checked my bank account this morning and the amount was posted up, so hopefully that means they are on there way soon. i can only hope he holds true to some of you all's experiences and still ends up shipping it...i really dont feel like going that the hassle of stopping the payment and everything (but i sure as hell will). anybody in the state of WA wanna find this place and do some recon on this dude!?!

called my bank and disputed the charge. I ordered the pipes from built4race instead on ebay. Paid him yesterday, he shipped them today, I highly recommend buying from him.

As far street customs goes, that guy is a fuc*in as*hole. Even if the pipes do come i'll tell ups to send them right back to hi bit*h a$$.

well I finally got my pipes today, from street customs...the pipes came directly from megan racing, so I assume Streetcustoms is just a middle man, however, that is not an excuse for his poor communication, although i recieved the product, negative feedback was left, i'll try to throw them on this weekend and let you all know how they sound with nismo exhaust

I also got my pipes yesterday. Maybe the guy doesn't speak good english and doesn't want to communicate with anyone . Anyways, the pipes came direct from megan racing also, they seem to be good quailty, I will install them today and probably have some videos or sound clips.

Can anyone host the Vid for me.

for those that did go through street-motorsports; how long after the payment went through did you receive the goods? i'm looking forward to hearing some more clips (almost as much as [hopefully] getting mine)

I paid for mine last friday, and got them yesterday.

I just came back from the muffler shop, I got them installed, car feels much stronger, I am running them with the factory exhaust. I really did not get to feel the absolute power because it's raining in Los Angeles.

I paid 80 bucks to install them after getting rejected by seveal muffler shop due to smog regulations and bullshiiit. The guys who installed them fabricated a bracket to hold the test pipes to prevent it from hitting the heat shield.

Hopefully tonight I will have some video's etc etc, if anyone is willing to host please pm me.

The guy thought having the Test Pipes hang from the header might cause problems down the road, especially because my car is low, he did not want me to bottom out and break my headers, it's just a precaustion.

I really can't call it rasp. It sounds deeper than a stock G35/350Z but has very very very slightly rasp and backfire. sounds good I think
