1. I sell knock off
2. I sell authentic
3. I sell to the customer what he wants, either knock off or authentic
4. If someone orders the authentic, I will not copy it without his/her consent.

Those prices are for authentic products.

I never said that I had a problem w/ you selling the "authentic stuff". I just thought that it would be interesting if you asked FEED if you could sell their authentic products, assuming that they knew you sold knockoff copies of their products, only to have you AGAIN make knockoff copies of their "newer" body kit. I'm only asking you to see what your intentions are. I already KNOW where I stand in regards to purchasing products. I have also NEVER said that I was interested in this group purchase. My mind is made up, Chuck. I was just curious about FEED's reaction to your business dealings....that is all.

Since you are not interested in buying any authentic FEED product, my intention and my operation does not concern you. I will only share the info with those who are indeed interested, not with someone who just wants to stir up some mess. I guess you can't really read too well. My intention is simple and stated many times: get the product that a customer wants. I have said it many times and now I have to say it again in the same thread just for you. Don't make me lose my patience. I am a nice guy but there is a limit on how many times you slap my face before I knock you out. Get off the internet and do some reading. Maybe you can comprehend better.

It seems that you took offense at my inquiry in regards to your business dealings. You consider it a "slap in the face". I have never personally attacked you by saying things in reference to one's reading ability or the like...so I find your response to my inquiry rather appalling. Hmm...

You think you have a right to question my business practice. Do I have a right to question your reading ability?? You just proved yourself that you don't read quite well. My "slap in the face" analogy was referring to your repeating question of what my intention is. Now I have to say it the 3rd time. My intention was only to get what a customer wants. Now I need to knock you out because you made me say it 3 times!!! :D

Maybe he's a little touchy about the fact that he's stealing from Japanese companies and has to compensate with the tough guy act. I was wondering myself what Feed would say if they found out what he was up to...

BTW, Chuck ("rotaryextreme") gets the knockoff kits that he sells from a company called Aero Duo. im pretty sure that if you go directly to them, you'll get a better price on knockoffs than Chuck can give you. no middle man involved.

not to start anything with rotaryextreme. just a bit of info.

How do we know that Aero Duo is even a body kit retailer and not just a manufacturer? If it's a retailer then you probably have to make a buy in to get replica parts made, especially ones they don't produce yet. If Aero Duo is a retailer then I can see your point JoeD, but if they are just a manufacturer then that would be like saying call Bomex and tell them you want a RE Amemiya kit, they will probably give you better prices. JoeD don't act like you are a P.I. and all by yourself you found rotaryextreme was getting kits from Aero Duo, you only found this out because RotaryKnight told you. To tell you the truth I could care less who it comes from.

Stop following me, Jim! I am going to report you as a internet stalker! :D Just for your info. I am just trying to get what people are asking, some authentic FEED parts. If I am going to make a replica out of the FEED type II R, I would do a group buy. I don't hide my intention. I am a very straight foward guy. I do get stuff directly from FEED. Maybe you can call FEED and ask them how they feel about it oif you are so interested. Let me get you the number later. Be prepare to speak some Japanese though.

Don't make yourself look dumb. You think you nailed me on my source or something? Everyone who bought bodykit from me knew they are from Aero Duo. Why? Because Aero Duo drop shipped for me. Jason from the RX-7 store knows, Slava from the rx7forums knows, all my customers know. There was one customer who tried to go directly and what happened? Aero Duo called me up and told me about it. So I told them to sell the bodykits for more and make some money. I don't care. Aero Duo is my buddy.

You know how Rotary Knight found out about my source? Tony from Rotary secret 7 told him. And you know what happened? I was talking to Tony about the Scoot hood. He told me that he had to talk to his Japanese connection about the availability. So I asked my Aero Duo buddy about any leads. He said he talked to Tony just the other day and Tony told him that he got the hood from SP Engineeing, Alex. SP Engineering is no Japanese connection. Alex is not even Japanese. So I had my Japanese partner called Scoot Sports and bought it directly.

You will be surprised in this industry, everyone kind of knows everyone. I want to make some friends on the forum but if you are trying to pull off some dumb *** stunts, I don't see how you can get benefit from it. What did you get by trying to be smartass and ended up looking like a fool? A lot of people already think you are a fool and a liar. Don't make it worse. I feel sorry for you. Even Jim Labreck whose *** you tried to kiss think of you as a liar when you said you live in a 1.25 million house but you had to drive a 85 Celica as a daily driver. Isn't it sad? If you want to kiss ***, you have to think hard before you kiss it. Some people do not want thier asses to be kissed. You might end up with pile of crap inside your mouth.

thanks man...i needed a good laugh. ive "kissed ***"??

BTW, does anyone know anything about buying/paying for a house?? just because the house was appraised at a certain amount recently, does that mean that was the asking price 9 years ago (in my case, when we first moved in)?? also, when you move into a house, do you pay for it in full all at once?? no. just because a house was appraised at a certain amount does not mean you have that much money in your pocket. (in my case...i DO NOT have anything close to one million in the bank). ****...the house was apprased at 1.25 mil, that does not mean we forked up that amount at once 9 years ago. all it shows is the property value in the Bay Area. it does not mean that i am rich. get real.

also about the Celica....i drove that thing for 2 weeks then sold it to a friend of a friend who needed it more than i did, and for more than i bought the car. i made some money off of it.

i do not want to drag this out any longer on this thread. this is tooo off topic. if you have anyting to say, PM me.

Of course you have kissed asses. We all know that. As far as the value of your house or maybe your mom's house daddy's house, I am not really interested in. I live in Bay Area too. I do know something about the real estate value, in fact, the Rotary Extreme silver project car's owner's dad is a real estate developer. I know you are not rich or you will not be driving a 85 Celica. I really want to get real with you. I live in a $370,000 apartment but I can afford a RX-7 with $35,000 worth of mods on it and also a 2000 GS400. But someone lives in a 1.25 million house cannot even afford an used FD? Like you said, come on, get real! Maybe you can buy yourself a scanner and scan the deed to show us you are not lying about living in a 1.25M house. How about this? Sell that 1.25M house, move to my apt complex, use the money to buy yourself a dream car of yours, get off the internet, and get a life, instead of poking me in the *** out of nowhere.

Talking about getting off topic. The thread was about finding a FEED type II R front end. Does it have to do with my source or my business practice? If you want to get off topic, I will do it with you. Do I want to PM you? No, I am not interested in you or anything related with your life. As long as you don't try to be a smartass with me, I have no problem with you. You will never see me attacking anyone out of no where. I am very passive. As long as you don't mess with me, I will not mess with you.

We can all tell that you don't really have anything to say as a come back instead of using some smiley faces. So next time, when you mess with somone, think hard before you do it. There are some peole who you can pick on but there are some you can't, especially those who know a lot more than you and also smarter than you.

I can tell that you are a young kid who just wants to talk some crap on the internet. I am real. I have met a lot of people in person and a lot of local Rx-7 owners know about me and have met me. How about you? Any Bay Area rx7 owner had met you in person?? Don't hide behind the internet. Go out, buy yourself a rx7, of course one that has to be in walking distance since you don't have a car now, make some rx7 friends and be happy with your life. Got a full name? I want to know who is poking my ***.

Chuck

Chuck, you are obviously clueless. as i said before, dont drag this on. if you are gonna say anything or attack me personally, do it privately. as for meetting fellow Bay Area RX-7 owners, i have met quite a few. friends, people around my neighborhood, and at autocrosses. none from this forum though, but i will meet some people from this forum on Sunday at an autocross event.

also, be original man. "one that is in walking distance." LMAO. you are a . dont bite off of jimlab...or are you on his nuts too?

and since when/why did you make this personal?? all i posted was about Aero Duo, and appearantly you took some offense to that. did i hurt your feelings?? did i say anything wrong?? by me not saying anything wrong, and you taking it so personal...you must have a complex of some sort.

as i said before, dont drag this on personally on the forum in public. PM me and we will talk about your apparent problems. unless you want to post it openly and be seen as a "macho man"...thats cool with me, but i dont know if it is cool with the Moderators.

Chuck, i have nothing against you. this is a friggin message board for chrissakes! dont take things so personally. besides, you probably have met me...just didnt know it was me.

Joe, you are one funny guy. Talking about personal attack. Maybe you should read your statement again before you submit? You clearly stated that

1. I need to get real
2. I am a Tool
3. I hang on Jim's nuts
4. I must have some sort of complex

Now who is the mucho man?? Now see if the moderator will warn you or warn me. I can't get on Jim's nuts as long as you are hanging on them. Sorry.

Chuck

I am not mad about your posting Aero Duo as my source. Not at all. I already said that a lot of people already know and I have nothing to hide. You think you nailed me or something but ended up looking like a fool. You already talked about Aero Duo at the other thread "oh..secret is out...hehehee." It's your attitude that pisses people off. You think you dig out the biggest secret or something. My operation has no secret. It's all based on connection. I have connections and I get what people want. Obviously, you didn't do any harm to me other than making yourself looking like a fool. But you know what, even if a fly cannot do harm to me, it's still annoying to have it flying all over the place. Just imagine that for a sec and you will understand.

All my rx-7 friends have names. I don't know one that doesn't so I don't think I have met you before. People with alias always have something to hide. So your real name is?

Why should I tell everyone where I get my stuff made if it's not necessary? So if someone asks me where I get my stuff done, I have the obligation to tell him?

Why don't you call M2, rx7.com, pettit racing, etc and ask them where they get their stuff made and see if they will tell you? What's your point?

Ask anyone who is doing any kind of business if they will reveal their source if not necessary. I think you have no business background so you don't know.

All my customers either retail or wholesale know about my source. You are not one of them so you are not part of my circle and that means you don't really have to know. Even if you know now, what's there to talk about? It's not like I am running a secret society. What's the big secret that you found out that you are so proud of? Now when I tell you that my source is not really a secret, feel a little disappointed? It's ok. Maybe next time. My business really has no secret. Better luck next time. If you are so interested in either me or my business, why don't you sell your 1.25M house and be my neighbor. You can play your little spy game all you want. Some people just have too much free time.

This thread has served it's purpose, which was to find out where to get the new FEED front end, I don't think it's getting personal at all, but maybe you should lock it..
