Ok I was trying to be the bigger man in this situation . In 2006 I killed my NA 7m. I posted on the fourm asking about swaps and the normal newb questions. I was approached by 88suprafast1 ( http://www.supramania.com/forums/member.php?3172-88supraFAST1). He presented himself as a shop owner that had alot of experience with Surpa's ( his own pos that didnt run). So we made a deal to have his shop do my swap. The shop was very far from my house ( almost across the state). I sent him a money for the 7m. A bit later the motor showed up from japan. I perceded to load the supra onto a truck and drivr the 6 hours to his shop. Well when I get down there it is a House not a shop.
Needless to say I am pissed and surprised. I should have just picked the 7m up and kicked rocks. But alas I was a newb so I dropped of the car. A week or so later I start getting the "We need this and the we need that phone calls." The shop owner a Jeremy Timmons negelected to do his research and ordered a yellow plug set up. So now I have to pay for a second harness and I never received my yellow harness for which I paid for ( Hmm an 88 harness missing ). I asked to have my NA cams installed into my GTE. I was told that they would do this as a courtesy because things were taking so long. When I finally got the call to come down to Vancouver Wa to pick up the car I was on my honeymoon in Harrison Hot springs. SO my wife allowed my to drive from BC to Wa to pick up car.
When we finally get to the "shop" the car wont stay running. I notice the NA motor sitting complete on the floor . Notice when I say complete I mean that the cams gears and timing belt are still installed and the valve covers are on. Odd s as how they took them off to get to my NA cams right ????:nono:
So after 6 hours of sitting in this dipshits yard,Feeding him and his kid Mcdonalds. I say Fuck it . I am taking the car home now. So I drive home to Mt Vernon with out the TPS working right,no exhaust,bad idle for a shitty ISC valve,and no reverse lights. No I take responsibility for taking the car before it was finished ,But I wasn't going to stay in a hotel with my pissed off wife in Vancouver after being told that the Fucking car was done and to come get it.:: angry ::
I get an AFM sent to my by Loren after I get home and find out that the AFM is going out. Slowly I start to learn and talk to the guys and they start seeing shit wrong with the swap I decide that I am not going to send his AFM back ..Fuck him I said. He then gives me a shitty Itrader rating and I still don't put his shit out there I play the Bigger man card.......
This week I sold my second 7m that replaced the one they swapped. I was matching my stock JZA70 motor mounts and LOw and Behold I have square mounts in my goddamn 92 fucking supra. That fucking asshole stole my fucking round mounts. I have to spend over a hundred bucks to get the BIC set so I can drop in my motor.... What The fuck.... I am heated.
I dont expect any results I am warning people not to deal with these guys they are shady. If you have dealt with them and wern't ripped off good for you. But I say Fuck them
