FA20Club.com

Just curious about why they were banned because I just purchased a FA20club flex fuel kit and don't want to get faulty parts. I can't find anything about them on the internet so I figured I'd ask here.

So technically, it's ok to talk about FA20club parts (i.e., flex fuel kits)... just not the members themselves. That is, if OP needed help with the parts/installation..?

Just the ban is taboo (and even that can be flexible sometimes)

Not as applicable to vendors/scammers.

Intent of the rule matters more than the wording.

That probably depends on which side of the ruling you are on

True, although I'm not sure anyone but FA20Club would actually defend FA20Club

I don't buy new stuff for my car unless I check ft86club first to see if they are a vendor or not and I look up history here.
