noel if you have any problems with my shop call me dont post stupid shit .first the car your speeking of is johns car he dosent have money like we do but i cant make people buy things that cant afford to buy such as axles or new clutches when doing a swap . ive never done any thing to you dont hate you we should be dsm as # 1. 11.00 @120 7.45@99 on street tires and little turbo."
My Reply.... I throw my opinion around alot, after all thats what forums are for. The public display of one mans opinion as he see's fit. As for johns car the axles could have been rebooted to prolong there life. The clutch... i dont care about that, ill chalk it up to driver error. One of the things that did bother me were the many oil leaks, no one could tell where they were all coming from. but i did note a botched job removing the oil cooler, among several other leaks that are hard to put a finger on due to the overall slimy condition of the engine and drivetrain.
In my opinion you could have handled the entire situation more professionaly. heres an example of what i feel would have been an appriopiate response.:
"As a performance shop owner, i obviously cannot please everyone all the time. We try to keep our customers satisfied and would like to know about the car that execelon saw, and a chance to either rebute the problems being caused by us at all, or givin a chance to correct the mistakes made."
but instead you have your puppets attack me armed with bogus info, lies and deception.
As far as fasttsi is concerned its evident you dont know the first thing about me or my car. You must be reciting what the great "Jim Jimmers" has told you. Obviously DP must view me as a real threat if they had to hold a press conference with all there followers explaining who i am and what im about. Why are you callin me out, i never said my car was fast nor did i show any interest in racing anyone on here much less you. So why are you coming on here saying you are going to wax my ass.
i never had a problem with Jimmy until he showed his true colors to me by calling my house and threatening me over a race he had clearly lost. Why be ignorant about it, you cant win them all.....
as far as us being a team or whatever..... You gotta be shittin me!
Damn Kaw....You dont leave anything unsaid do you? LOL

Dear cock suckers. {yes this means fasttsi} regardless of what you think you know, id like to take this chance to clear some shit up.
First..why attack noel and pretend you know him. Obviously you are just spouting nonsense. The only MSD on his car is plug wires..you really think that's gonna make or break a motor? shit no..... as far as spending his parents money you do realize he quit working there over a year ago? what are you jealous because you still make 7.50 an hour? i see you bring up him selling the 2g and getting a 1g....now your a hater because he decided to go AWD instead of fwd? i think you are just grasping at straws. all i want to know...is do you suck jimmies dick because he pays you, or do you just enjoy the taste?
Now my real beef begins. Why the fuck you talkin shit about Abacus building his bottom end. if they suck so bad why is there car faster than EVERYONE'S on this sad little board? Yeah your right, id much rather have my motor built in a dirty ass garage by some redneck with antiquated tooling, than a well respected machine shop that has been in business for over 15 years in this area. I'm sure some dumb ass is going to bring up the sleeve dropping issue...so id like to point out eagle sleeves dropped {installed at eagle} no darton sleeve {installed by abacus} has ever dropped. Now I don't think abacus is the answer to every question. but after working there for 2 years I am certainly in the position to make an educated assessment of there skills and weaknesses.
Now onto DP the reason this pissing match got started. why in the fuck are you talking shit on there behalf? do you think they cant handle there own? if its noels opinion is they suck, then that's fine and you morons need to recognize. not everyone {myself included} believes the bullshit jimmy spouts as the gospel. you claim rj and Jim jimmers have been in this game for "mad long". we all know jimmy hasn't been in this game long at all. maybe 3 years, 4 tops. he was in the car audio game forever. Just like jimmy then claimed his supercharged integra would make power to 10k rpm and run a respectable time. fact was the car had a stock head, with SS stock replacement valves. Not only did the car never run a decent time, nor have half the shit done he claimed. he had to spray on it to get just a 13.4 out of it. These times don't impress me, how about you? why am I bringing up old shit...because jimmy is a shit talker. His cars never perform. much less....he is a business man, not a tuner.
Though i have not asked jimmy on his role at the shop I'm sure he doesn't claim to be a tuner, but a salesman. so why would anyone trust his word on built motors? you think anyone over there really understands the intricacies of a high performance engine? hell no. its about so much more than what pistons and rods you got, what turbo you've bought and any other part. a fast car is about making all these parts work harmoniously. Sometimes more is less.
My final point ... jimmy always claims he doesn't have the time to make it to the track, yet at every event I see him there. Don't get me wrong..on a personal level jimmy's a decent guy. But I think everyone has something they are good at, and building race cars is not it.
