DO NOT BUY FROM FA20CLUB - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

yetiFR-S · 04-07-2014, 04:50 PM

yea so basically i am fed up with fa20club. if you are thinking about going with them for your forced induction needs, go elsewhere if your from out of state. back in late december i ordered my turbo kit from them after all the great thing i heard about toni and his customer service . i ordered everything over phone and went into detail about my plans for my car and was very pleased after the conversation ended. Well it is now april 07 and i still have not recieved all my parts. in fact my turbo and intercooler only came in about a month ago . they told me they were going to ship it out the week after i placed my order , 3 months have still passed and i still have not gotten anything. even getting a tracking number was a hassel. they kept telling me things shipped weeks ago and no more info after that , then with they would send me with tracking number it showed that it was dropped off at ups that same day. in total i probably recieved 9 different packaged with an excuse to why it was late tied to almost each one. getting on the phone with them was also an obstacle until they completely blocked me . i also switched something in my order and was supposed to get refunded the money back and that still didnt happen even though toni keeps insisting he sent it . i am fed up with this half assed shop and wanted a complete refund so i dont have to deal with them again and wont have any of my money that i worked hard for( 8 grand which was taken out of my bank account the same week i ordered ) in there pockets. I am honestly let down by this shop, i thought i was getting a partner to build my car with , instead i got people i need to chase down for parts i paid for . and what makes it worse is that i live in nj so i cant even go down there and talk to them , instead i get my number blocked, instagram and facebook messages deleted and emails never returned as if i was not a paying customer . i know there are people that have had great experiences with toni but i am here just to inform people on the other side of this shop .

why do people keep ordering from him? there are so many threads about how he's screwed people over.

you might be able to do a charge back through the bank as well

yetiFR-S · 04-07-2014, 05:23 PM

i will contact them tommorrow , have you heard of any success with that ?

Model Citizen · 04-07-2014, 05:24 PM

My advice would be to never buy anything online directly from a bank account ever.

yetiFR-S · 04-07-2014, 05:27 PM

haha didnt even realize i was , i ordered through the phone. i was getting a sense of him being a con artist , could have sworn i smelt the bullshit coming out of his mouth all the way in nj .

So. You didn't realize you were on the phone giving him your bank info instead of cc, felt sketched, and still did it?

Is that right?

I'm glad I saw all of this. I used to look at their site and glad it felt weird so I never did it.

I just don't understand, you said in the first post "very pleased after the conversation ended" then you just said "i was getting a sense of him being a con artist , could have sworn i smelt the bullshit coming out of his mouth all the way in nj ." Best of luck though with doing the charge back or the call to the bank tomorrow.
