I'll remind you one time and one time only. You opened this can of worms.
1. Should I refer to you as Streetpower or the other ID you use on this forum "ovrevd". The id you use to post your questions when too embarassed to ask them as streetpower? Or when you want to pretend that ovrevd is a customer of yours that speaks highly of your work. You and many others know that it is you trying to talk about yourself in hopes of luring business from this forum. The jig is up pal you are a fraud.
2. Banning me from you shop. Sure you banned me from your shop after I told you to your face that you are lying sack of **** that ripped me off.
3. Speaking of your shop, do you still have your engine room doubling as a paint booth? Or can you even afford a hoist yet? Speaking of your body shop/rx7 shop. Have you told your partner about how you bought a 20b from aspec for $4500 and then pretended to have it shipped from the US to your home so that you could charge your own partner $6300 for it? Well guess what, I did. Sam is a good guy and deserved the truth.
4. As far as your work lets see now. You installed an E6K for me in 2003. You told me that you had installed and tuned at least a dozen. But the below link shows that you didn't even know what a wideband was in 2003.
https://www.rx7club.com/haltech-forum-62/e6k-tuning-tips-151633/
5. You sold me the intercooler of your car and said it was a new one.
6. You stopped me from buying a new stainless steel exhaust sytem and advised me to buy yours. When I eventually saw it, it wan't even stainless.
7. Your estimate for my TII swap balooned from 5k to 12k. And then after paying 11k of your ridiculous bill you tried to hold my car for the last 1k. I paid the bill as I said I would regardless of your bullshit.
8. When my car was having cooling issues you told me that it was 3-4 weeks before you could look at it. Luckily for me your shop partner is a nice guy and told me that I should come in to the shop when you are not there, replace the thermostat and just take my car. He knew that you were hoping to try and squeeze me for an engine rebuild when I didn't need one.
9. You have a great set of cars but you have built them at the expense of your customers. Kevin with the silver FD sold his car a soon as you finished working on it and told me he will never talk to you again. Andy with the Red FD is now an RPM customer. A couple of others have told me there own horror stories about dealing with you.
10. As far as my being unprofessional. You lost all courtesy with me when you lifted a piece of metal to try and hit me with it on the last occasion I saw you. I didn't flinch then and I will be happy to defend myself physically or verbally against you any time any place.
11. I have just touched the surface with my issues with you and I will dig deeper if you are stupid enough to want to try me further. I chose not to sue you since I knew the devastation it would actually inflict on your family rather than you personally. But be warned that the limitation period on my suing you is renewed every time I discover the depth of your deception. I have read that in business if someone kicks you while you are down, you should kick them back on your way past them on the upside. You kicked me when I was a student and didn't know squat about rotaries. You will get yours.
Mods maybe you can move the last few posts to the bad guy section where this discussion would be more appropriate. I had no intention of doing this here but Streetpower seems unable to contain himself.

You and many others know that it is you trying to talk about yourself in hopes of luring business from this forum. The jig is up pal you are a fraud.
i did not have an issue on the forum or got banned because the moderators know of me and that sitution and the issue with ovrevd and my reputation ...which you are trying to tarnish...if i am not mistaken you got banned numerous times from this forum ... hence the different user names....
2. Banning me from you shop. Sure you banned me from your shop after I told you to your face that you are lying sack of **** that ripped me off.
If i am no mistaken you where the one that have parts installed on your car at no charge on numerous occasions and still owe me a proper explaination
3. Speaking of your shop, do you still have your engine room doubling as a paint booth? Or can you even afford a hoist yet? Speaking of your body shop/rx7 shop. Have you told your partner about how you bought a 20b from aspec for $4500 and then pretended to have it shipped from the US to your home so that you could charge your own partner $6300 for it? Well guess what, I did. Sam is a good guy and deserved the truth.
my friends which cars i build that come to my shop knows that my shop is a part time operation done for the love of rotaries.thats why Sam and i are in that shop because we are both die hard rotary guys from the early 80's
that 20b for sam was from the US and i have aspec's 20b will be coming to a track soon....
4. As far as your work lets see now. You installed an E6K for me in 2003. You told me that you had installed and tuned at least a dozen. But the below link shows that you didn't even know what a wideband was in 2003.
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=151633
i suggest you read the link again there is other opinions on it.....
and do a better search because just like anyone working on rotaries the forum back then was used for tech support and a great community atmosphere.....it is dissapointing to see what it has evolved too....
that post is dated Jan 23 2003 i moved to toronto in late August 2003 we did not meet you till around later part of 2003 and yes i was asking questions because i was working on a vechicle in Tx that time.......
also both my FC and FD installations and tuning was done by me along with numerous others FD's and fc's.
there are other local shops like rpm and Rotary dynamics that go on the forum and ask tech questions as well engine building diagnose problems ect...there is nothing wrong with that...the forum is a means for tech support.... hey even yours was installed and tuned by me and which you only paid for dyno time at my hook up cost but my tuning time was free and you made great horsepower numbers which you still talk about. your car was very drivealble and you were smoking stangs all day long.......what happened after is beyond me thats all on you
5. You sold me the intercooler of your car and said it was a new one.
i told you it was used it was on my FC not even 200km's on it you saw it when i installed it you saw all my custom piping which i was reluctant to sell but you insisted and i gave in...what a fool i am....
i remember when you and i went to buy your engine and i checked it out for you i with no hesitation i even helped you wheel and deal the guy i could of bought the engine and sold it to you with a marked up price but i did not so
just think about those times or when we both went out to buy parts for your car using my using my contacts and you gaining from my discounts i would just step aside and you would gain from the savings
....you see how do you weigh the good with the bad???????
6. You stopped me from buying a new stainless steel exhaust sytem and advised me to buy yours. When I eventually saw it, it wan't even stainless.
yes i new your finacial sitution and i only suggested my parts to save you $$ i really did not want to sell you any of my upersonal p[arts nor remove it from my car and install it on yours but you insisted so again help me out on this issue.....
it was used complete racing beat turbo system you saw it on my FC and even when it came off the car
7. Your estimate for my TII swap balooned from 5k to 12k. And then after paying 11k of your ridiculous bill you tried to hold my car for the last 1k. I paid the bill as I said I would regardless of your bullshit.
it did because of all the extras that you were well informed and approved off when i was doing your v8-rotary swap conversion.... remember your car came with a v8 chopped up rad support no engine and body harness no exhasut no intercooler no mounts and a big mess....you needed stuff and i reccommended stuff and you agreed. ...what you want me to pay for your parts and charge you no labor....dream on....
nobody in this business could give you an exact competitve price for a conversion like yours so i hope you understand that....
8. When my car was having cooling issues you told me that it was 3-4 weeks before you could look at it. Luckily for me your shop partner is a nice guy and told me that I should come in to the shop when you are not there, replace the thermostat and just take my car. He knew that you were hoping to try and squeeze me for an engine rebuild when I didn't need one.
yes i did because i am 1 person shop and i had Andy's FD for major repairs that was at my shop before yours
it is common cortesy wait your turn... and i am sure if i had some spare time to squeeze your car i would have...but again you did not understand that
why would i even squeeze you for a rebuild when your engine was runing perfectly fine and the overheating issue was caused by the butcher installaion of a cheap electric fan installed by another shop which i removed for you along with repairing an oil leak for you ...which i am still waiting an expaltion on the charges for this.....
9. You have a great set of cars but you have built them at the expense of your customers. Kevin with the silver FD sold his car a soon as you finished working on it and told me he will never talk to you again. Andy with the Red FD is now an RPM customer. A couple of others have told me there own horror stories about dealing with you.
my cars were well built when i lived in Texas so your or Kevin's profit from my work did not go into my cars they went into building your cars and me setting up a shop.
for your info i still talked to Kevin before and after he sold his car and i also know the new owner of his FD which purchased parts from me for it and the car still makes tons of power i do not know whats up with it now thou....it was at magnus for some time seeing the new owner is a good friend of Marco hence our interaction.
Andy only went o RPM because he is on a budget and RPM builds engine very cheap but wait wasn't RPM calling Jim on how to fix Andy's car who then called me about RPM's lacking of knowledge and i said so be it because i don't know RPM or have any issues with him ...oh and RPM also had Andy's FD at his shop for over a year just for an engine rebuild lets see what the future holds on this car.....
10. As far as my being unprofessional. You lost all courtesy with me when you lifted a piece of metal to try and hit me with it on the last occasion I saw you. I didn't flinch then and I will be happy to defend myself physically or verbally against you any time any place.
it was not metal it was a 2 X 4 made of wood and my good friend stopped me even before i pickd it up
so again you are trying to make an issue out of something that was provoked because you became very irrate at my shop towards me hence the reason for me banning you.....
11. I have just touched the surface with my issues with you and I will dig deeper if you are stupid enough to want to try me further. I chose not to sue you since I knew the devastation it would actually inflict on your family rather than you personally. But be warned that the limitation period on my suing you is renewed every time I discover the depth of your deception. I have read that in business if someone kicks you while you are down, you should kick them back on your way past them on the upside. You kicked me when I was a student and didn't know squat about rotaries. You will get yours.
hey if i remember when i 1st met you and you had a V8 in your car all hacked up no harnesses rad support ect i explained to you the cost and what you were getting yourself into and both you and Sam encouraged me to work on your car
i did not have a shop i was just moved from Texas to Toronto and had no intentions to opening a shop Sam offered his shop space seeing he got the job for installing your wide body and painting your car i only worked on your car because i was you and Sam twisted my arm and i saw a chance to bring back an RX7 i even came to your house and helped you out when you heard a weird noise under hood and had a burning smell to check out from the car at no charge as well.
you see Charn....it goes both ways bottom line is
you are upset that i was working on my car getting it ready for a race late at nite and not working on your car and i told you off because i was stressing on my car and itwas in the heat of the moment you called me which pissed me off and by me talking down to you you did not appreciate ....and again i apologized for that incident beacuse you did not deserve to be talked to like that but i guess you still hold a grudge and cannot be man enough to accept it and move on
and as i told you as much as you want to put me down all of STREETPOWER cars will outperform any cars you or your friends build .
The STREETPOWER name has caused lot's of havoc locally because at the tracks the crowd loves all Streetpower rx7s that i do and they all perform low 11's and high 10s in full street trim makes tons of horsepower.
all i can say is ...HATERS...
i resurrected your car from being sitting at another shop for a couple of years with a v8 bucthered up in it...made it very fast with a very clean install made some money while doing it you and i both gained from lots of props from the fab work ect we became friends while doing the work...but like some people out there you are not a real rotary lover.
Rotors flow in my blood i have had rotar powered cars since i was 10 years oldjust like Sam and many of my customers who understand if you play you got to pay
i still support any issues and back up any warranty issues as far as sueing me be my guest...don't use my family as an excuse be a man about and put your facts together and challenge me
I BUILD AND TUNE RX7's like no one else in Ontario i work closely with certain local shops on projects people don't know about and you are just a sore loser trying to put someone down because of your pride.
all i got to say is grow up.....

1. The only reason you were not banned for your two ids was because you claimed to the mods that it was your brother that created the id. And then you stated that one id is for work and one for home. Regardless of whether it came from you or your brother the end goal was the same. You were trying to scoop business from this forum by pretending that you actually had customers. It is unfortunate that the 7club archive has lost most of "ovrevd" posts as it would become quite clear to anyone that took the time to read them that you are one and the same. This fraudulent, conniving behaviour is a prime example of exactly why I am no longer your customer and will always recommend people stay away from you.
2. You came into this thread more transparent than your old ways but clearly still just hoping that Ka Kui would pm you. You would have tried to turn that pm into a business opportunity. I saw it and intervened and you didn’t like it, which resulted in this thread being what it is now. I would be willing to wage money on the fact that less than 1 percent of your posts on this forum were actually ever trying to give anyone advice. You are an opportunist concerned with only one thing, lining your own pockets.
3. You continue to lie about that 20b. Sam knows the truth. I only discovered the truth by pure coincidence. I was at Aspec picking up a part when Paul or Steve commented on you buying a 20b. I clarified with them when and if it had a bent front pulley. They confirmed it did and that it came with a light blue plastic bin of peripheral parts. Now you must remember that I drove to your home with Sam to pick up the 20b that you said came from the states. The same blue basket and bent pulley 20b is what we picked up. When I and Sam probed as to why a truck would rather deliver to your home than to a dock level at the shop you had no answer. When I probed about the lack of packaging skid you said you threw it out. A little absurd and coincidental don’t you think. You are a person that would lie to his own partner to make a few bucks, a customer doesn’t stand a chance.
4. You explain your lack of shop equipment and building engines in a dust filled body shop by saying it is a part-time venture. Well maybe you should try charging like it is a part-time venture and not claim to be more than you are. Your love of rotaries cannot overcome your love of money and willingness to be underhanded to get it. Your shop is a joke where you have managed to build your own cars but exactly which customer of yours is enjoying the success of collaboration with you. I have never seen or heard of any.
5. There is nothing wrong with asking questions you don’t know the answers to. There is a problem with misrepresenting yourself as a tuner when in fact at most you could be described as a novice that is hoping to become a tuner. You stated categorically that you had installed many systems and tuned many rx7s and other cars. I guess you did all this in the short time between learning about what a wideband is for and when I met you. You should really listen to yourself. I am not buying your BS and I doubt anyone else is.
6. As far as tuning my car you took it for 4 pulls on the dyno and stated that anything more was to be at an additional tuning charge. Paul from Splitfire is a great guy that gave me a good rate on the dyno time. And as a result I encouraged others to attend his shop and actually arranged a dyno day when I helped found the Rx Club of Ontario. He made a pretty penny and he is happy to deal with me at anytime. And he is fully aware of what I think of you.
7. I have no problem acknowledging that you introduced me to many people to buy parts for my car. I can also tell you that I have done a hell of a lot better on my own. The only reason I allowed you to continue with my car is that I needed it finished or my money was completely wasted as I had nowhere to turn at the time. You held me hostage on more than one occasion. You refused to install certain brands of products in the car as if it was your own car. You didn’t care where the money came. You knew I had kids and was in school. You wanted to build a car in a fashion that would show off your business rather than serve my needs at the time. It was your shop’s stickers on the car when you asked me to take it to a show. My car was the first car you worked on when you came back to Canada from Texas and you took full advantage of what you perceived to be my deep pockets.
8. 12k for a TII swap into a vert with an E6k is a ton of money any way you look at it. I asked you ten different times about whether 5k was enough as I could not afford more. You replied every time that it would be close. I am beginning to think that you were hoping that I couldn’t pay the bill so that you could register a lien against the car. I cannot imagine why you would think that I could afford more than I stated I could to you.
9. I really couldn’t care less how much time you spend working on your cars. It is none of my business. What is my business is that when my car comes into your shop for a 1-2hr fix you tell that customer they should wait 4 wks since you are working on a complete engine rebuild plus whatever else. I told you before I took the car to you that it is my primary mode of transportation and I need it back. After spending 12k I expect a little bit of courtesy. You were hoping to make another fat bill but I intervened and that is when the problems with you and I began. I told you exactly what I thought of your antics and I was done with you. You were the moron that still called me back after that since a part you ordered for $47 from Mazda had come in and you wanted me to pay for it. I obliged and came to your shop that evening to pick it up and pay for it. I was completely calm and did not say a word to you about anything since you had others in the shop. IT IS YOU that decided you were going to raise your voice at me in front of others and when I didn’t back down you thought you would scare me with trying to attack me with a piece of metal. You claim it was a piece of wood but you don’t deny that it happened. You are a moron, you told me to come there and then tell me I am banned from your shop. I never wanted to see your face ever again and I had already told you that. I only came there because I never want anyone to accuse me of owing them money. You were paid every dime you asked for.
10. Your arrogance in your post is pathetic; you are mentioning other shop names and trying to bring them down to your level. You try to claim that you are the best in Ontario at servicing Rx7s. To make that statement in itself shows your lack of respect for others. It is supposed to be others that state you are a good tuner, tech or whatever not you proclaiming yourself the best.
11. You are the one that is too prideful to acknowledge that you made a mistake by mistreating me. If you had done so many months or even years ago this thread would not have been here.
2. You came into this thread more transparent than your old ways but clearly still just hoping that Ka Kui would pm you. You would have tried to turn that pm into a business opportunity. I saw it and intervened and you didn’t like it, which resulted in this thread being what it is now. I would be willing to wage money on the fact that less than 1 percent of your posts on this forum were actually ever trying to give anyone advice. You are an opportunist concerned with only one thing, lining your own pockets.
3. You continue to lie about that 20b. Sam knows the truth. I only discovered the truth by pure coincidence. I was at Aspec picking up a part when Paul or Steve commented on you buying a 20b. I clarified with them when and if it had a bent front pulley. They confirmed it did and that it came with a light blue plastic bin of peripheral parts. Now you must remember that I drove to your home with Sam to pick up the 20b that you said came from the states. The same blue basket and bent pulley 20b is what we picked up. When I and Sam probed as to why a truck would rather deliver to your home than to a dock level at the shop you had no answer. When I probed about the lack of packaging skid you said you threw it out. A little absurd and coincidental don’t you think. You are a person that would lie to his own partner to make a few bucks, a customer doesn’t stand a chance.
4. You explain your lack of shop equipment and building engines in a dust filled body shop by saying it is a part-time venture. Well maybe you should try charging like it is a part-time venture and not claim to be more than you are. Your love of rotaries cannot overcome your love of money and willingness to be underhanded to get it. Your shop is a joke where you have managed to build your own cars but exactly which customer of yours is enjoying the success of collaboration with you. I have never seen or heard of any.
5. There is nothing wrong with asking questions you don’t know the answers to. There is a problem with misrepresenting yourself as a tuner when in fact at most you could be described as a novice that is hoping to become a tuner. You stated categorically that you had installed many systems and tuned many rx7s and other cars. I guess you did all this in the short time between learning about what a wideband is for and when I met you. You should really listen to yourself. I am not buying your BS and I doubt anyone else is.

i will still be building fast *** rotaries in Ontario as long as i live and you will still be way behind even thou you live in a big 3000 square foot house and drive around town like a bigshot lawyer.......
also i did speak to you man to man and apologized about me talking down to you a long time ago so thing back long and hard
and i hope you do see the lite

Speaking about my experience with you with others is my perogative. They can take it as truth or leave it. I gave you the courtesy of not making a public thread about you till you spoke to me directly. This thread is the first time you did speak to me directly in several years and I said my piece. You were the one that jumped down my throat in this thread and I have only responded to your comments. I agree that this was a long time ago and it really means nothing in the grand scheme of things but I am yet to hear you acknowledge your wrong doing. But I do sense that you would rather the issue be settled. I have no problem talking it out but step 1 for me would be an apology from you for the whole fiasco. Statistics prove that a happy customer tells 3 people of their good experience while they tell 11 about their bad. My case was different as I helped found the Rx Club of Ontario and had access to many ears. Just think to yourself about what your business would have been today had you kept me happy. I hope you have learned a valuable lesson from your experience with me and treat your future customers better than you treated me.
Now for the future I am happy to hear from you and welcome a PM or phone call to settle this off the board. But I have stated step 1 to you and it is your decision as to what you want to do. I hope that you will swallow some pride and do the right thing as I have done in this post.
