I'm absolutely convinced that lexusb3 is the unofficial spokesman of fa20club at this point. We had the same thing on 300zxclub.com. When the guy finally came out about it, everyone said, "Ohhhhhhhhhhh it all makes sense now".

Every time I read something about fa20club and how they're fucking this person over or that person, it makes me question why people CONTINUE to do business with him. He obviously doesn't have a grasp on this whole business model thing. I had a better business model when I was 16 years old. This is the only platform vendor that I'm hearing have so many of these issues. The ONLY vendor.

Anyway, the hilarity continues. I'm glad I'm not in any of your shoes.

Over 3 weeks for an updated BIN file? F*ck that.
Reading other peoples experiences with 'remote tunes' no thanks, I'd rather set my car on fire on a 20+ frs/zx6 cruise with no fire extinguisher in sight.

He sounds like one of the clueless cheerleaders backing up FA20Crap/insert other shitty vendor name here..

Even this guy vouched for toni
"One of my oil lines fittings were loose and my car almost caught fire, thank god it didn't!"

and I quote:

Review on the FA20CLUB,
"Tony is the best, The kit was missing a few fittings some parts had to be modified but we were expecting this since nothing is ever bolt on. Tony 's guys forgot to send me the intake pipe so we just put the intake on the turbo itself."


Fantastic customer service, especially when your dropping a few K on a turbo kit. Modification of kit parts and missing pieces

Send a message via MSN to woode
Update:

1/9 Fedex shipping label is created for a 2nd box - looks like when he told me several times that all three were shipped it was a blatant lie, as I expected.

I'm guessing he saw this thread and did something about it - although now the 2nd box is just initiated - not even scheduled to be picked up by fedex yet, let alone in fedex's hands.

The P3cars guage will getcha

OP, I just re-read your starting topic an noticed that apart from the turbo kit you also bought the GUAGE!
I think the P3Cars guage is the source of all your problems LOL
I took me just over 2 and a half months to receive mine. And even before that I had to remind toni that I had ordered it, then he FORGOT I had paid the amount in full lol

Ironically, I sold that guage off to a good buddy of mine for around aa $80 AUD loss to me since those specific ones sold by toni have that shitty FA20CRAP logo silkscreened on he front(which I wasn't aware of). I ordered another one.. DIRECT from P3cars and it arrived in under 2 weeks.

No I'm just a regular paying customer that has the cash and get the products and you I'm sure are a sucker that send him money that isn't even cleared and expect your parts in a day lol ya need to realize that post on here to help everyone realize that the crap works I back it up because it does I have countless ppl looking at my car and asking "omg how is it doing" and I'm saying it's fine and that's what I do if not who would know how the kits handle under extreme daily usage.. I wold for a corporation and sometime you need feedback both positive and negative so I guess I can say I'm.the positive and others have negatives just like every business that's successful. So relax my friend

2. I have used FA20CLUB and I was happy with the service I received.
The people, us, the users, want it here. We want to know people's experience. It could be moved later when the topic dies down. Go away fa20 fanboy, and turn on your damn abs before you kill someone.
