I know it's a long shot.. but please let me know if you see ANYTHING suspicious as far as sales online. If you happened to be in the area, and saw a truck.. or whatever.. please let me know. Thanks
Travis

[DRFT]

dam!!! man they musta planned this, check ebay for any of these items and if you se any of them check "sellers other items"

[itslogics]

damn it sure was planned!!!! They would of had a few people in this also.....and a very spacious truck. I hate that shops like these get robbed. People are trying to earn a honest living....... man that sucks.

[Hawd]

Omg that looks like +$30,000 worth of stuff. I'm extremely sorry to hear about that. I don't think anyone can get away with that many performance products unless they open up another shop in the area. It wasn't a robbery it was a fucking heist.

[TurboB15sentra]

It's about 80K worth of stuff...
Travis

[Muzzy]

dude..thas an inside job...thas too much stuff. if its not they had to have taken a ton of time to do it. thas a lotta shit to take....either that or it was a large team
either way thas really sad

[BoroBoroS13]

Yea it really sux and some people really sux. Heres some more info for you guys/girls.

from JGY Website
……a note from Jason

I would like to take some time to explain what has happened to JGYCustoms, Inc. on Friday night, 3-12-04/ Saturday morning, 3-13-04. It is quite a horrible thing. The company was broken into and merchandise/tools/literature/motors were stolen. Some of the items are impossible to replace or put a price on. We will never find out all that they took. So far, we have a list hovering around $80,000 and growing. Thankfully, we are insured, but that never helps you fully recoup.

I want all our customers to know that we are physically fine and JGYCustoms, Inc. is still a driving force. We are restocking our inventory, accepting orders, working on vehicles, shipping items, and receiving new shipments daily. Thankfully, there was minimal vandalizing that occurred.

You can never stop a group from breaking in. You have to expect it to happen, especially in this business. What you don’t expect is what happened. The thieves were able to cut a hole in our wall to gain access. From there, they seemed to take their time and take what they seemed to be of most value to them. I never expected this kind of theft. I blame myself for not having motion sensors/cameras with direct contact to the police. I want to express my deepest apologies to all our customers that will suffer for this in delay for replacing their parts. Additionally, this will never happen again. We now have someone here 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week until the new alarm system is finished being installed. I am sparing no expense.

We have discussed our situation with many of our vendors. They are more than willing to work with us to try to speed up production times, delivery times, and forecast schedules. I greatly thank them for that. Hopefully, we can put this behind us quicker than expected.

If some of the merchandise that was needed to complete your project/order was taken, we will be contacting you and explaining the circumstances.

I hope that the criminal investigators find the merchandise and tools, as this will help so many people. I really don’t care if they find the robbers………..just the stuff.

Our customers are hurt more by this than anyone. I am so sorry for those of you that have waited for custom parts, tuned ECU’s, special orders, only to have them stolen after they have arrived. Additionally, motor work, transmission work, and turbo work will be slightly delayed as we try to replace our tools and custom units that we used to perform the services, as most were stolen. I blame myself and will do my best to diminish your delays as best as I can. I am very sorry for all of this.

Please feel free to contact us. We are open our normal hours. New items are arriving daily.

Sincerely,
Jason Garrett Young

From JGY on Sr20forums
What bothers me the most about this is how evil the people are that did it. They obviously know/knew what they are doing. If you look at how they took ALL the JWT ecus, but let the stock ones, things like that.

Why in their minds did they not realize all the pain that they are causing our community? A fair percentage of you guys out their got hurt by this. I also have a feeling it is an affiliation with a competing shop or something..........I mean, all 7 of our Hotshot intercooler kits? all 10 of the RWD Greddy turbo kits
Hell, all we sell is basically for like 5 different chassis....

What I am askiing of you guys, and I realize that I may not have the fair right to ask this of you.........is please, let's start being very inquisitive about why something is for sale and why it is priced the way it is....
Alot of the components stolen are mostly sold thru us. JGYBB37R, JGY rails, etc... let's at least make it hard for them to profit from this

[Shin_Kudo]

Jeeze, this sounds like more thatn just a robbery.

It almost sounds like somebody is trying to put you out of business. Are there any other shops in the area that are on bad terms with you guys? Any customers who have a grudge against you guys? It really sounds like whoever perpitrated this was out to hurt you guys more than they were trying to benefit themselves.

[sticky240]

wow, good luck with finding who did it.

thats really sad when shit like that happens

[brianglawson]

as i posted in the other thread this is horrible, and i had know idea they lost this much stuff, whoever did this better get a shitload of time put on them....

[240trainee]

I posted this on the mid-atlantic forum, maybe get some response for you guys there. I hat thevery, it demeans all the work that hard-working people put into thier cars, and indeed hurts the community in general. I hope the stuff gets found.

[Steeles]

Damn that really sucks! I hope at least one of the fuckers that did this gets crushed unloading something. glad to know the shop is still there and already on the ball working to get things right again

[aznpoopy]

holy crap... that's alot of stuff. must've been alot of people. O_O cut a hole through the wall? that's like some shit you would see in a movie. damn. good luck to JGY recuperating! :(

[Nismo240SX]

If you know where JGY's shop is, and saw anything, please report it to me.
or anyone could report it to me, since i work there...;). Just to let everyone know, we're okay, and we're still open for business. we're receiving stuff by the day, so anything you guys need/want/have ordered is on its way. We appreciate everything everyone is doing for us. For most of you who do not know, we do have very competitive prices. So check us out at JGY Customs.com (http://www.jgycustoms.com) And on that note, we do have some new tranny mounts for the SR. They're stiffer than the Nismo tranny mount, and they're pretty well made for drifting. Thanks for everyone's support.

[HyperTek]

You guys should have camaras put up in the shop?? Thats my worry if I was to open up a shop, is that since the car scene is blowing up more then ever, and with the boom of the drift scene, there is bound to be dumbfucks out there that will cheat in every way they can. Or if you could, have a big ass dog live there. lol

[justinhustle]

dude thats fucking bullshit

stake out all the local shows and meets and see whos got parts that you used to sell in cars you dont recognize

even if they didnt steal it, but bought it stolen, beat them til they give up some info =/

[SilviaBoston]

Why cant people just work for their parts...Ripping of a store is even worse then those bastards that follow you home just to get a chance to grab your engine...Those people are messing with how you make a living and that isnt cool, but could you guys ship me one of you LSD's for free :boink:

[SilviaBoston]

Sorry posted twice

[pruto]

thats fucked up yo. When some ass broke into my car with a rock to steal my stuff, i felt violated. The money wasn't and issue and i got everything replaced in short time. BUT its psychological, it makes me feel some 300 pound guy in a wife beater just bent me over and owned me. I felt like wanting to grab a bat and hitting something.

I'm really glad that they're not going to let this get them down and continue the good work full speed ahead. When its something like this, the moment you quit, or say its not worth it to go on, they have really won.

I believe in kharma, bad things will happen to bad people. As much as drifting has gotten this community blown out of porportions, its still tight. These fools better watch their backs. Its not one set of rims or a couple of ecu's they're trying to get rid of. Its $80,000 of shit.

[fastpace]

man that really sucks. I did business and will continue to do business with them because they are nice and honest people. Man I hope yall find somebody that was involved in this because this aint right.

[West]

Sticky topic. Lets find the stuff and the bastards who did this!

[Bbandit]

i'll keep an eye on those stuff... i ordered JWT ecu a while ago and i plan on doing more business with JGY.. those bastard thieves..

[TurboB15sentra]

At least you guys are supportive... the people on Fresh Alloy are all ragging on JGY.. saying it was an insurance job or something.. I hate ignorant people!!

[HiPSI]

JWT ECU's and stuff like JGY BB turbos aren't common items, so some of that stuff will be pretty easy to spot if it pops up on any message boards or auction sites. just keep an eye out for stuff like this, even if it's at a pretty much normal price let alone a "too good to be true" type of price. if there's one thing i hate in this world it's thieves;(

I saw this a few days ago and have to agree with everyone that is definatly sucks. One of the local shopd here got hit pretty hard last summer. The thieves even used customers cars to drive off with the stuff. They did catch the them though, they left one fingerprint in one of the cars they recovered and it was enough to find them all and all the stuff that was left!! Hope that happens here too!

Not sure that its a good idea to post the info that the serial numbers are there even if they scratch them off the outside. Might let someone onto that info that they didnt know before......

Good idea.. I edited my post.. please edit yours too. :)

[holisticbeatz]

..inside job

[AAA240SX]

..inside job

I'm with Holistic on this...
There's no way an uniexperienced person(s) could do this.
Inside job or maybe a previous customer who visited your shop frequently?

[doriftokouki]

Alot of that stuff is going to be really hard to pinpoint because people sell that stuff all day long for sr20 and 240sx.

[Nismo240SX]

we'd like to say thanks for everyone's support. hopefully something will turn up and we'll catch them. Thanks again.

[Ryan of Velocity]

Sorry to hear about the theft and hope you guys find out who did it.

[BSeay]

Damn man... that sucks that people trying to make an honest living getting robbed....

[PSI240SX]

whatever toolbag.... read one of the first ten posts... same thing here. Just not as much. For you to say that its a complete impossibility is ignorant. Just as if I was to say that it was absolutely, unequivocally, an inside job.

[import0728]

THat's a lot of shit!!! well, is there any other shops around that area? Maybe it's another shop that did it. they do have trucks and a pretty big place to store it. just a thought.

[No Motiv]

thats FUCKED UP.......JGY is such a great place..good guys..good prices....man that is fucked up

[mjjstang]

what youve got to look for is not the guys with ton of feedback. its obvious when your run across an auction that is the guys business. well made auctions. lots of feedback etc. and im sure the guys who stole it arent running a business. (they could be though) you have to look at the guys that are selling all this stuff with not so much feedback. and the auctions that arent as well made. thats only if they are selling it on ebay. but yah obviously the guys arent keeping it all for themselves cause thats a lot of shit. so it really shouldnt be too hard to find them. unless they sell it slowley and deversify their selling venues. geez i sound like the perpetrators. im in michigan and too poor to afford a plane ticket anyway. but yah that sucks. just gotta look at the small details and im sure these guys will get caught.

[v8blakdak]

its a bunch of bafoons from the japan that came to the mainland and now have one two many carry on bags on thier plane rides back home.

sucks bout what happened, especially if you have some JGY part(s) that u bought ligit and want to sell them now... you're gonna get hounded like car full of apexi "style" parts

[MakotoS13]

somebody would recieve a cracked skull. few people are smart enough to not slip up with something this big. unless they sit on the parts a LONG time they'll get caught.

[alkemyst]

I would seriously look from the inside out on this one like others have said.

1) it'd take a freaking team and a big ass vehicle to move all this.

2) they got 'picky?', I mean taking the time to sort the ECU's? This isn't a small run it, load a bag and run out job...they were cleaning house....in these kinds of crimes usually they dump the crap somewhere later on. It'd been stupid getting caught sorting what not to 'throw' into the get away truck.

3) I am hoping this gets solved and wasn't friends/associates and also wasn't exaggerated. I am not going to name the company, but I know of one that I was at and within the next couple days was robbed. I saw the 'report' online and I will say about 80% of the crap reported stolen was definitely never there unless a freaking 18 wheeler came by the next day with a complete inventory.

mjjstang is dead on with how it will probably go down....typically also is someone selling a 'complete' set of mods with the premise he lost his job or his car got stolen/totalled, etc....he seems to know about the forums/shows/etc only after he wants to get out of the scene. They usually do this after ripping off several cars and mix and matching the parts with others....They also usually use a out of town address, but when you 'buy' they tell you they are visiting locally and can just swap for cash.

it just sucks....thieves are like cockroaches...they were always here and will always be.
