Finally when they were done with the swap 9/07 got a call from the owner( Jimmy ) told me that the motor that they supplied was blown, so I said **** it im towing my **** out , got a tow truck and towed it to RMS aka Renes, then Jimmy tried to bill me $1800 for the work he had done which was nothing, i brought my car in running and now have to tow my **** out , so i told him that he is ******* crazy and left with my car on the tow truck straight to Renes shop, DAMN WORST EXPERIENCE. oH THE SHOP IS CALLED JPR MOTORSPORT ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!! JUST WANTED TO LET ALL YOU GUYS KNOW

As busy as you are, you let them work on your car for 1 year and 11 months and never suspected anything wrong with that?

This is one side of the story.

The car was finish about 2 weeks after drop off for a motorswap, the motor we installed has rough idle problem, then we replace another one with HKS turbo kit, that how my nightmare started.

ONE POST WONDER....Get ****** lost. Or atleast find some one to type out a actual other side. After hearing they were trying to part out the car, they need a *** kickin. Total BS that can result in violence if you burn the wrong mo fo. It amazes me how people can take getting fucked so nicely. I had someone try to burn me once on this forum, I never let it die(the thread that is), till I found out where he lived and posted it, and after I did I got what was due.

Christ on a crutch! No offense, but people will take you more seriously if you throw a comma or period down once in a while. It sucks you got fucked over, but it sucks worse to try and read your posts.
