Yup, they have a BUNCH of cars there. Mine is taking a bit longer than expected but I think it is because I have requested extra work and stuff needed to be sent out.

So what do you guys think? Is miguel reading these posts?
I think he probably is... and is probably sweating every minute of it.
Good job miguel! You made a lot of friends here. Enjoy the uncertainty of your future.

Tim,
Good post (not so good for their, and now your German customer, unfortunately). Albert was in my office when you broke the news to him yesterday. As a community let's hope that the frequency in which these threads are created diminish greatly in the near future. On another note, (Tony made a good point w/ this) I am starting to feel for those that may have been mislead by the accused, and continued to promote/defend them even whilst all of the accusers came forward with hardcore proof of a multitude of crimes.

That German Z was there when my car was there. The dude that owns it is one GIANT dolf lundgren look alike, I'd be scared if he was looking for me. The rear CF hatch install looked pretty cheezy to me, I'm sure it would have leaked water profusely. I know that the shop at VRT got real busy one day and I found that the owner of the car was comming from germany to see it so they were suddnely FRANTIC about getting it running. One day it had no engine the next day it did, I saw nothing and know nothing about the engine other than that. I do remember that there was a problem with something about the brakes which were enormous size BTW. For spending 40K I would have expected more than what I saw.
One thing I did notice, the CF engine cover that went on that car looks EXACTLY like the one on the engine which I bought from Min and my old engine cover went with my old engine to Min's, when I questioned MRA about it he went and dug up an old stock engine cover for me.

The German is like 6" 10" and 275 lbs of solid muscle.LOL. Mike A is about 5"8" and 165lbs. I would be ****tin myself if this dude was coming after me too.We actually wnet to JWT today to see if any of his JWT engine ,turbo parts were salvagable and..............the verdict.......not really but some $400 dollar Eagle rods are(He paid for Pauter rods)! We also found out that the parts in this engine were defintiely out of the yellow VRT race car.So we estimate that he paid close to $40K and he honestly has about $3K of usable parts.Most of that is in the carbon doors.The carbon hatch is f*cked and the lexan install was botched up horribly.VRT told him to come pick up the car when he arrived here and we went to Mike A's house(he was nowhere to be found) and so we start the car and it is making all sorts of noises. So we turn it off and tow it to the shop. Put it on the lift and take a quick look......oil everywhere,stock axles,stock exhaust,stock G35 diff, driveshaft bolts only tightened with fingers! no oil cooler, nothing else really except the turbo system was there.So we pull the motor and find out the clutch is JWT and not a $2800 Carbonetics tiple disc,the 850 turbos compressor wheels are chewed up.Start dissassembling the motor and find out their is aluminum shavings in the exhaust ports, find out the cams are pretty much junk,the heads are trashed,the oil squirters bolts were all loose and one of them backed out and was bouncing around in the bottom-end cracking a piston,smashing up the block and damaging the crank.No darton sleeves,just a stock block that is preety much done with.Oh but they put a VRT Carbon engine cover on their
