i thought u welded too man? its honestly not that hard to learn, with my turbo and exhuast set up i make 17psi at 3300rpm thats a turbo thats slightly bigger then a gt42r and its a journel bearing not ball. on the street its pretty good imo but the stall converter is slightly too small. but wanted that as i get my licence back tuesday and dont want to lose it again.

ahh ok

500psi is nothing man, but yeh edged or knife preped(prep taking right to the edge) and 2.4mm is the gap in each join,

Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Just got my turbo beanie, thanks.

ready or not, here i come... waiting for u to post my rocker cover is a joke man wheres pick up im coming on friday to get it

This guy is biggest scam artist. Bought something in July never receieved asked for refund now no replys!

you sent me two pm's one this morning, and one on thursday? and i havent been on much sense then... you sent me a msg saying u no longer need it as u got one somewhere else last week or there abouts, and i asked for your details to give u the refund... you gave them to me about 3 days later. i went to transfer the money last week but i have sms security on my banking and thanks to optus my phone was ***ed last week so i couldnt recieve the code. got it back working friday night not out here to scam anyone mate just sick of everyones bull****.

I sent you numerous messages & even left voice mails What's your reasons for not sending part in first place? If your trying to run a business mate how about actually being professional & actually sending the items people pay or & issusing a refund straight away. & also not doing it via phone ever heard of going into bank to deposit or ringing the branch? Not that hard mate. & I'm not the only one that has been a victim of your scamming ways Looking forward to refund going in on Thursday.

Guy's leave the E-bashing out of it.. If you have a problem bring it up politely, and at least give him a few days to respond. And pro-tig, again, i'd try not to be taking on any new orders until every single one of your old orders are filled/refunded. Until then, everyone, please stay calm and do your research before purchasing anything from anyone... we can't stress that enough.

well i got a rocker cover done by this guy, and after it took 3 months to weld up and smooth off i got it powder coated in candy red at my local powder coaters and there is all pitted marks from where he hasnt welded it properly and all bumps over the whole top from where he's hacked at sanding it with god knows wat, so my cover is getting re sand blasted all my candy red i just had done :[ is coming back off wat a waste, and re smoothed up properly which is costing me twice now for something that should of been done right the first time, so when someone cost me money i get pissed off, i wont post pics yet, wil give it some time, would like to know how you's found the quality of your work , anyway no harm done my dads mate is fixing it now so will just let it be, just gotta fork out the money for the colour again but you get that
