  1. cheers matty and rab.. , thanks 4 the uplifting comments and vibes, I need em ... thanks Rab , any day now mate, ... yeh matty, cant wait for wsid!!.. I wont lie im scared to death that something will break though. ounce its running right and been on the road with no issues for a year or so, then ill feel better about taking it down the quarter.. thanks again for all the kind words and advice guys... will keep u all posted. its heading up there on fri..
  2. yeh mattyp , if this sh*t happens again, well .... im gunna try not to think about that.. . I just get my enjoyment watching other peoples cars running like a dream on youtube, im glad there are folks out there that get to enjoy a working car with no headaches ... it could be worse, it could have blown up!, and he could have charged me 20grand extra and took 3years to NOT finish it.. hopefully in a few weeks I post up how happy I am with the car ..
  3. im hearing u sixman, honestly this dude at springwood is confident he can sort it out.... I take all advice on board.. I don't really trust anyone anymore.. iv been thru this sh*t 10years ago with my r33 vowed to never do this car modifying bullsh*t again... but here I am... everyday I give myself a massive uppercut....anyway if its to much of a head f*ck for this fella , on to the next one.. hope this is it though
  4. thanks for your replys guys, the car is running super lean to the point I was advised not to drive it.. spluttering and breaking down when cruising at 110kph, wanting to stall piss and fart around at traffic lights, and the one time I tested putting my foot down only quarter throttle coughed and spluttered and felt like it wanted to commit suicide .. iv had my car at autotech early on when I had nice normal mods , turbo mods, surge tank , all the goodies for 370-400 rwkw. they where good and there costomer service second to none . just bit pricey.. but that's my only thing , cms is to far away.. ... this fella up at springwood sounded like he knows his sh*t, and was recommended by a very stand up no fuss no bullsh*t fella. hell ill let him have a crack... im so bitter and twisted after all this , im starting to hate cars ... im thinking a f*cking horse and cart. . . least I would get to work.. ill shut up just talking crap cause im beyond pissed hehe post up the invoice, yeh im sorta kicking myself cause I may have deleted it off my email.. im hoping its still in my waste bin yeh man that's it.. the money the time its all gone... just looking out for others , I guarantee others would have gone postal long before this.. im as chilled as u get and iv been depressed and hating life for the last year and a bit.. its been beyond f*cked.. , I have a new born to add to the collection in a week or so, I don't need this crap right now. not to mention the amount of money im spending on beer to keep my old man happy while I use his car lol
  5. Its Very dissapointing. .. to say the very least Not really , I just took it back to give em another chance to do the right thing, .. that's the sorta nice guy / sucker I am
  6. springwood car care are going to do there best to sort it
  7. hi guys Iv thought long and hard weather or not I should post this, But f*ck it, I cant keep silent anymore.. on the 17/7/2013 !! I got my 2007 bfmk2 tilt trayed to bta motorsports for a stage 4 package.. ground up engine build, all the best goodies, precision turbo, stage 3 gearbox, 6 pot brembos, koni shocks, e85 fuel system , The works!!.. Was quoted 26grand.. ok cool.. Finale bill .. 36grand!! .. Hmmm.. ok, after vomiting in my mouth and having panick attack, came to turms with that.. sort of, thinking ok , im sure it will be a monster worth the money.. but still deep down bitter as f*ck with having to pay an extra 10grand!.. when I made sure he knew 26 was my budget.. ok , So I empty whats left of my bank account, thinking Hope this car is worth this Money.. Long Long long story short.. Here we are 30/9/2014 and the Car is still f*cked and I have had to take it to another mechanic to find out whats wrong and for him to hopefully get the car running like it should.. (more money) I have driven the car for one week with it running good. .. the rest of the time its been sitting in bta 's workshop collecting dust and some more scratches. . a grand in rego down the toilet, not only that I got the car back with my horn not working my aircon not working (they have since fixed the aircon) My satnav no longer works either.. "Bring it back mate , we will sort it out" he says.. Hmmm Is he kidding me??. does he need another 14or so months to sort out whatever the f*ck is wrong with this bucket of crap??.. There aint a snow flakes chance in hell the car is ever seeing that workshop EVER AGAIN!.... Ps u can view my car on youtube on the rare occasion it was running .. its the white 550rwkw bf... I Never ever wanted to post this, I never thought it would come to having to take my car to someone else to get it running right, I just dont Want anyone else to have to go thru this nightmare.. Ps Bta have said there happy to get it sorted, but again I think 15months is long enough to get a car sorted.. I have left alot of stuff out but ill leave it at this....
  8. yeh mate , done it a few times lol.. im a forgetfull f*cker though .. but yes embarrasing .. also doing a burnout before your ment to and getting a spray from marshall also rather embarassing.. eh f*ck it.. its all practice.. .

  17. issue still not resolved... and yes your are all right who the workshop is.. nearly been a year now... f*ck me.
  18. haha ! no its not BTA motorsports!.. . I have resolved all the issues with the workshop , everything is sweet now .. thanks for all your support and posts guys cheers.
  19. who knows man, I may spill the beans when its all said and done. . But im not out to cause sh*t ya know.. my life is hectic enough with work kids bills all that bullsh*t.. I just want my car back running right.... I should have learned my lesson when I was modding my r33 years ago.. that turned out to be a sh*t fight to... anyhoo, another lesson learned. next time im buying a car that already done.. U would think the guy would want my buisness, and wouldnt want bad sh*t said about his shop. he knows im a member on this site, All my mates are car nuts, cant understand why he's dragging this out so far!.. to the point that its at now. doesnt make sense..
  20. I did do my research, I researched my ass off. . one bloke drove out to have a chat about the car and his workshop, Trust me I thought the workshop I choose was the sh*t... just turned out ....sh*t.... dont get me wrong the car looks amazing the engine bay is awsome , big gold external waste gate, precision turbo, braided lined carbon fibre, it looks awsome...stage 3 built gearbox, 6pot brembos, . the car looks great, just super pissed with time frame .. Hmmm, I dont wanna say anything to much until I resolve all this.. 36grand in total.. he was very nice to take a grand off the price after I bitched about it being 11grand over quote..
  21. nah its not at sevenhills. .. thanks for the kind words man.. .. all this will end if he just pulls his finger out and gives my car back perfect!!... iv been biting my toung for 8 freaking months!!. only so much sh*t one can take,
  22. thanks 4 the advice mate : ) iv got the original quote on email.. and the f*cked up invoice also on e mail.. He didnt give exact time frame, but f*ck me dead houses get built quicker! after the original quote was sent , wich I was happy with, he would ring me and say , "mate u want your engine painted?" yeh ok. but how much. his reply "ah dont worry we will sort it out". hey mate ya need a bigger intercooler and plenum .. ok but how much, he would say "umm not sure but we will sort it out".. .. if I had of known that him sorting me out meant jamming a pole up my arse then I wouldn;t have gone ahead with these extra bits.. Plenum 1600 from memory , intercooler 3grand!!! , f*cking candy paint 1200!!! and so on ... to be honest I would have lumped the extra cost and put it down to another life lesson learned., but then when I paid the money took my car and it still wasnt right , then had to give it back and wait another month and who knows how much longer , well that was the straw that broke the camels back.. but I dont wanna say anything bout fair trading till I get it back , otherwise he may try being vindictive and putting metal shavings or who knows what in it .. I appreciate all the replys guys.. just fumming hard right now,
  23. Need advice people, Dropped my car off to what I thought was a reputable performance workshop 8months ago!!!... Payed my money! Alot of fu#*ing money, (11grand over the original quote mind you) 1 month ago.. only to realise that the thing wasnt right. . Serging running rich as F*#ck, No aircon , brakes shuddering, Auto not shifting properly, all these things, took car back pleaded 4 the car to be fixed up, and to be ready asap, cause id just waited 7months already and already paid the sickening amount of money , So its now been another month without my car, when he said id have it back in 4days. . I honestly dont know what to do.. I was thinking of calling fair trading.. How can u get charged 11grand over the original quote??. then stupidly cough up the money to then realise u have to take the car back then not get your car back!! .. I still have not got my car back!!. . So im out of pocket close to 40grand! not including price of car, ... I have no car!! I have no money!!, All I have is murderouse amounts of rage pulsing thru my veins!!.. has anyone ever taken any of these pricks to fair trading ?, if so what was the outcome??. any advice at all would be greatly appreciated.. kind regards guys..
  24. thanks for the replys guys, ill check the classifides wogpot that atomic engine sounds interesting. but the boys at bta also sound pretty good, so ill chat to ali again. . iv decided to build the engine and breaks and suspension and just have the stock turbo... unless he can do me a good deal on a turbo set up also, maybe e85/98 tune or something to. . but seems a bit of a bitch to get ya hands on that e85. . why was I running so much boost on a stock engine, power I guess, learned my lesson though. . anyway looks like bta all the way. cheers guys def want for power down the track. don't think I could get built engine and breaks and sus for 10grand. he quoted 10grand for built engine alone.
  25. need some advice guys, I blew up my daily driver the otherday. xr6 bf mk2 with 539rwhp on 20-21psi turns out that's way to much boost for the engine, exploded while in fourth going for it : ( anyhoo looks like im going to have to borrow 10grand and rebuild it.. my dilemma is. Do I go with a bta built engine, drive in drive out for 10grand. or a "freashened up" engine for 6grand (no peice of mind though that it wont go bang again. I dont want to go back in power though. . ali said I can have a all round coilover, and ap racing break package and the freshened up engine running bout 370rwkw for about 9-10grand or I dont touch my breaks or suspension and chuck the built engine in for 10grand. . my concerns are that the freshened up engine might still go bang with 370rwkw. and that's 6grand down the sh*tter. but if it holds up iv got wicked breaks and suspension also. (wich is the package he said he could do for me for similar price of a built engine). OR leave breaks stock and suspension stock and chuck the built motor in and have my 400rwkw with peice of mind for 10grand. . any imput guys will be much appreciated !!! im without a car and I do 120ks a day penrith to city. kind regards guys rob
