Yes the link is to boostcruising but worth the reaad: A guy was asking there experiences on the car yard when i few ppl stated there experiences, an employee jumped on and started calling ppl all sorts of names then the business owner jumped on and started abusing ppl.....please have a read of the first two pages if anything. Im more putting this up for any potential customers just to see who you are dealing with before you hand over your cash.

AJM Motorsport discussion

"Bahaha how is ajm dodgy? There's nothing wrong with there cars i would no i wrk for them!!"

lol/sigh at the English

edit: *cringe* at English in that thread in general

and :O at comments from worker and owner!!

Edited by ZENNON

LOL, thread is now closed

comments from the owner weren't that bad. typical of a lot of business owners defending their business, dodgy or not. the employee though, well he's just a cockhead. what sort of idiot threatens someone while representing a business? fkn tool

I bought my first skyline from them, would not recomend it.

I actually paid for a R33 there that had a GTR kit, front mount, exhaust, it was yellow and some decent wheels. It had its flaws and i entered into a written agreement with them to get things fixed such as the sterio some scuffs on the body work, some cracks in the kit ect ect. On the day I go to pick it up i get told that no i couldnt pick it up as the car failed roadworthy and had to be destroyed or sent back to Japan, Obviously this was all BS and they just didnt want to spend the money to fix the stuff on my list.

So instead of giving me my money back they hassled me into finding another car on the lot that I liked, I didnt really like any of them as none had the same mods as the original one I PAID for. Eventually a deal was struck to get one of the cars on the yard up to the same spec as the one i had already bought >_< the catch was they wouldnt be able to carry out the work for 3 to 4 weeks and seeing as i had already given the cash i wasnt prepared to wait that long. So onece again I entered into a written agreement with these guys to come back and they will fit all the stuff that would have been on the first car. Low and behold they never honoured thier written agreement and I ended up buying all the stuff myself.

Luckily the car itself as ok but i ended up paying for about 5k worth of stuff that i never got so yeah i totally agree, in my case they were nothing but slimy typical used car salesmen

In my honest opinion, if I was a shareholder for a company that spoke/wrote to customers in that fashion, I would pull all my shares out and recommend the same to others.

It is not okay to call someone a "dickhead" if your trying to defend your business, no matter how dire the situation is. In all honesty, the owner could have handled that much better than he did and could have actually turned that weakness into an opportunity. "Come down see my cars, I really do have top customer service and I'm sorry for ignoring you the first time." However, as we all saw this was far from what was his mind.

Furthermore, the employee is stepping far outside his job description and responsibilities. If I was boss, I would have him sacked and tell the rest of the industry what an ignorant and arrogant person he is.

I've dealt with Dom (ajm_motorsport) before. I suppose in the instance that I associated with him he was good, at the time the cars looked pretty sweet (and im a picky prick). Though after reading his words and his employees, I am disappointed that a unique business such as this had to ruin the reputation they had. In reality it showed what was behind the cracks and only really proved suspicions a reader might have had with the business. Funny thing though, I have a feeling there was another dealer commenting on that thread to which he/she would be laughing all the way home as now AJM may now not be considered to some as a real contender.

Oh well, each to their own, I hope that thread was enough for AJM to start thinking about the general consensus of the business being run.

Most of you guys probably aren't nerdy enough to know or remember when a certain popular, but small and dodgy computer store named Gamedude wanted to refresh its outlook a little and asked for opinions on all major nerdy forums such as whirlpool and QGL. Well that turned into a shit fight to dwarf this example. The owner of the store basically called his entire customer base a bunch of pimply, nerdy little dweebs. Which they (we) mostly are probably! But coming from him it was pretty funny (Because he was a pimpy FAT nerd). But anyway. I learnt that day the importance of good and calm communication when representing your business.

That employee should be fired. The boss should never have posted anything he did. They both should learn how to write. And now they have probably lost a lot of business now and in the future. Think about any Boost member who comes on and searches the forums for AJM and that thread is the result.

I'm glad I went private if thats the quality of import yards around here. For some reason I don't trust a company with a car if they can't even form a sentence.

having had a few mates buy used cars from sales yards, i refuse to ever purchase my car from one. private sales, or brand new only

there is a reason that used car sales men are referred to as dodgy pricks the world over

with an xbox in the back

I'm sure there is an Xzibit joke in there somewhere.

Everytime I've gone to look at the cars there it has been the same deal. f**kwit employees and shitty cars.

I can not understand why anyone still goes to Boostcruising, Apart from the clasifieds (And they are to be taken with a grain of salt) the place is just rubbish.

Every time i read something from there I feel dumber having done so!

Boostcruising....Creating retards since 2001 :stupid:

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
