finally i got my car back. it's been the longest four months of my life. but you know what... i still can't drive my car. i'm still waiting for my 99 combo lights from slava. i know were not suppose to post stuff here for slava cause he won't get it. but it's been four months. he'd told me that he had everything in stock when i'd first order it. now i tried to call him and he's mailbox has been full for most of the week. he was suppose to call me back last week twice. and didn't. i know he's our sponsor and all. but this is bad business. I JUST WANT TO DRIVE MY CAR. i'm still making payments on it plus my ins and it's about $650 a month. that's alot of money to put down every month for a car i can't even drive. i just spent about $5-$6k on the car. got a hood, kit, spoiler, and new paint job. i'd even had to pay extra to the bodyshop cause the car was sitting there for sooo long waiting for the parts. i don't know what to do. i've called, wrote him a e-mail. now i'm trying this. sorry for all the negative statements. i'm just very dissapointed in this situation.





Now for some better news... i'll post some pics tonight.... though your gonna have to use your imagination and pretend the 99 combo lights are on. sorry it had to come to this slava, but i'm just outraged from the lack of service. really, i'm not even sure if your still in business. since your mailbox is full for a week. it just means that everyone else is looking for you. and chances are, they want there parts too. like i said in the e-mail. i'm willing to give you one more chance. i do need to order other parts. but i'll not gonna order anything till i get my lights, or just phone call. really, that's all i need.....



A PHONE CALL.. is that soooo hard????

you have never ordered a part from mazda have you? i waited 3months for a side housing for my engine and that's a US part. email him @ info@rotormotorsports.com i think that's his email. it sux to wait. trust me i know the pain. my FD was in the shop an ENTIRE year. it sucks but some stuff is out of people's control

i'm just dissapointed that he'd told me he had it. then he told me he'd send it.... give me a tracking number that don't work.... said he'd call back. now i can't even get a hold of him.... plus i've tried to e-mail him too.

i dunno. i had trouble getting in contact with him too. those 99 lights are impossible to get for some reason!

i know..... i just wished he'd call back when he said he would... i'd use to have a performance shop of my own. xtreme motorsports in san bruno cali.... had it for three years.. the only reason i had to close it, they rised the rent 150%... wasn't worth it anymore...

so i know how to run a business. it's not that hard. if you say your gonna do something.... then do it. if you can't... call and tell them that.

yeah i know. i work in the service business contacting the customer's is everything. i have a hard time getting slava on the phone too.

thanks, at least i know you know how i feel... but hey = ) i'll post the pics the second i get home......hahahha .

Just curious, how much are those lights from Slava? I know where to get them for $449 new, shipped right from Japan, says they are in stock too.

$299 from slava i think

Have you been billed for the ****?

I had a good experience with Slava, he got my toyz to me decently fast and emailed me with tracking info, and i did have a page long list.

$299, wow, the website says $492, is there some code to enter to get the different prices? Im only offering this advice so the guy can drive his car by the way

I feel for you man. My car ws in the body shop for 3 months then as soon as I got it back the coolant seals went out. So I haven't really been able to drive my car in about 4-5 months. I still pay everymonth just like a good boy also and It sucks.

well i've been paying an ASSLOAD of money for my FD and mods for two years and i drove it 4000 miles. 3000miles broken the first year i got it. then 1k miles then it broke again. its fixed but just waiting for it to be 100% so it won't break again!!!!

$299, wow, the website says $492, is there some code to enter to get the different prices? Im only offering this advice so the guy can drive his car by the way[/quote]

JT IMPORTS has them for $310 on his site. that is probably where i got the price from..... you can also try http://www.mazdamotorsports.com

yeah, i paid for everything four months ago... when i first order it.... so now even if i want to get it somewhere else i can't...

plus i got everything as a package. i never received my mazdaspeed hood. so when i decided to go with the scoot hood. slava only gave me $500 credit, the hood was $650 and i paid for shipping. i know the price was lower cause it was a package.... but i know i got jacked... i was cool with it though cause all i wanted is my car back..... but now that my car is back... i still can't drive it....



IT SUCKS TO BE ME!!!!

I can see the attraction with these cars, lol

just talk to slava. i'm sure he will take care of you.



look at it this way your luck isn't as bad as mine with EVERYTHING. i bought my greddy 3row from rotary xecret 7. it was missing an intercooler pipe. needless to say after speaking to the president of greddy he WOULDN"T give me the damn pipe. finally after 2-3 months rotary xecret took one out of another kit and sent it to me. that was HORRIBLE........you can drive your car with no turn signals!

You should just sell the car to me, being as it has no turn signals the price would have to be VERY low https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Theres no excuse...if he said he sent it and gave you a tracking number...



Cant this be considered internet fraud?Your the the first person who had this problem..

i know he was. i was trying to use a modified line from the fast and furious https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Ask a turbo rotory owner, any owner, it doesnt matter if it runs and drives for 1 mile, or 100,000 miles, having a turbo is better then a N/A

AMEN!



so what if the engine in my TII burns 2 gallons of coolant in 5mins. its fast for those 2mins :bigok:

i'm not mad, but just very dissapointed that our own sponsor treats me like this... he knows that i'm part of nopistons.... i'd join here just when my car was in the shop...... and that was the same time rotormotorsports became our sponsor.. all i'm asking for is a phone call, and the status of my part.. that's all!!!!!

It's like trying to explain to someone why you race bikes or cars.



So let's see you never win, you spend thousands of dollars a year... I don't get it.



Well they prolly never will. ***phinsup quickly looks through his freud book*** Only thing I can see that comes close is the chapter on penis envy.



J/K

unfortunately. this is the wrong way to go about it.... just keep calling and emailing. who knows maybe he has a personal issue. you never know...

i know.... that's why i did apologize to him the email and on the thread... i don't want to have a bad relationship with him.. like i said i'm still willing to give him another chance.... all i'm saying is that a phone call is not that hard to make.. that's all.... but guys.. .thanks for all the support. and again, slava, sorry it had to come to this... i'm just not a very patient man.

Well i don't want to get down on slava, I am sure there is a perfectly reasonable explanation, but in the same respect you every right to expect answer to your question when you have already paid and seen no parts.



I will say that part of the parts buying process is the parts waiting process. I am the same way, I bought it today how come it wasn't here yesterday... but you still wanna know what the current status is no matter what.

Best favor you can do him is post it here when you get it resolved, just like when you had the issue.

it tends to be closer to 1 mile with rotaries.

well... vosko's rotaries anyways... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...O_DIR#>/11.gif

i sure will.... i'm not trying to put a bad rep on him here.. it's just that nothing else worked so far... so i'm just trying a different method....

try suing him.

i don't know how well you know him, but the longer you wait the worse it looks when it's brought to court.

a reasonable amount of time to wait is 1 month or less.

2 weeks max if he claimed to have a part in stock.

don't feel bad- it's his fault not yours.

my little brother has a t2 and waited almost 3 months for a ******* clutch and flywheel.

this bullshit has to stop.

i feel you man... but i don't want no twoooble.... i just want to drive my car.. it's sooo funny. since i've been a member... i havnt driven my car. excect from the shop to my house. but i barely boosted. car been sitting there a long time. i think i should change the oil. what you guy think??? the oil is new, and it's redline.

plus my car is about 2-3 inches off the ground, so i don't want to hit anything.
