Actually, I would like to point out that I have only ever blamed the guy who installed the alarm in my car (useless prick), and to a very limited degree Phantom Motors/Jack for a few dodgy things on roadworthy and going against what I was told originally. I have no problems with any of the work Tas did on my car or the help he has given me.

Not trying to turn this into a pissing contest, but as my name was mentioned I just wanted to clear that up from my end bro :D

Also... did Adam ever get any work done there apart from a minor service?

So shouldnt you be rushing back to him to do some more work?? as apposed to hitting up Marto/Dan for help??

I'm leaving this issue before it turns into a shit fight.

also - as for Adam, I just know he too went elsewhere - I havn't kept in touch with him.

disclaimer:

I know I am dealing with John here - so I know that regardless of what I've said, I know I'll get some smart remark/pay out/thats waht she said/excuse/blah blah blah - but I dont really care.

how would 18*7.5 +38 fill my front guards? better or worse than present?

and the rears that im looking at would be 18*9.5 +38. Some staggered as wheels but, meh.

A penny for your thoughts?

F off. Im broke! =P

dont be a clown - they all bullshit sizes

take tristan's advice;

fronts: 19*9.5 +2, 255/30

rears: 19*10.5 -7, 275/30

ps get those wheels too - Volk GTCs

Well since my name was mentioned here is my two cents,

I wasn't happy originally with the service Tas did on my car but after talking to him about it and the follow up service I received I was happy. I was also happy with the repair to my accelerator as well. I wasn't happy with the avcr simply because the intermitent noise I was hearing was faulsly reported as a bearing in the turbo due to over boost. It wasn't it is the throw out bearing in the gearbox. I adressed this with Tas. I accepted part responsibility and we moved on. Personally I think that Tas has done his best and my hat is off to him for going out on a limb and trying to start a business.

I ask him for advice about certain things and if he did have a shop I would take my car back there.

The End.

Lets build a bridge and move on.

John : apologies for the other week. Was a bit of a head f_ck on the weekend as my son (who I haven't seen in 7 years) was at my mums. So you'll forgive me if I was a bit out of form and not contactable for a while.

Martin : Presently I do not think I will be there on thursday. I will endeavour to get your parts to you somehow... possibly by swallow.

Does anyone know the airspeed of a un-burdened swallow ?

Tony I have some wheels sitting at my place that are my mates from Melb. Been at my place for a while.......... 12 months to be exact. Pretty sure he's happy for me to sell them. 17 x 8 and 17 x 9 with + 35 offsets. Have tyres too. Feel free to come and try them on.

So shouldnt you be rushing back to him to do some more work?? as apposed to hitting up Marto/Dan for help??

I'm leaving this issue before it turns into a shit fight.

Like I said man, not turning it into a fight or anything. I just wanted to speak up as my name was mentioned. Tas was actually busy dealing with his own cars when I was wanting more work done on my car, and Dan and Martin offered to help me. I'm on the fence for the whole thing and staying objective and have no problem staying friends with both parties who've done no wrong by me.

Phantom Motors however, can eat a dick.

I actually didn't think my other post sounded all that confrontational :whistling:

Those wheel doesnt look like GTC Tristan. GTC has fatter spokes. Anyway you going drifting next Friday? I'll probably come have a look if you are.

John: Hahaha... I havent been there for ages. Just thought of going there and get a couple of shots for the car. Afterall, I dont have a good camera nor is my camera skill any good.

Colin: You running pod filters?

See if you can coax the GABNR out of hiding. It'd save you getting aids from Harry's.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
