Even after explaining everything I had to go through because of their mistake I STILL had to haggle to even get a partial refund. FUCK THAT.

They walked me through their little chop shop and I could tell nobody gave a shit. One guy took a turn too sharp with a tranny tagged for resale on a fork lift and the thing hit the ground and rolled at least 10 feet before the guy threw it back on the pallet and kept driving.

Dealing with LKQ was an awful experience.

If you had a warranty, why did you pull it apart? It defies all logic.

Yeah, I'd have 9k saved up too if I never bought my S13 and modded it.

Everyone makes mistakes,other dont think things out clearly.

when i bought my motor was afraid of the hit or miss bs,i ended up getting a motor from a friend who wanted to get something bigger and better..The guy drove to my house and took me for a ride etc etc before buying..This motor was well taken care of and i knew that i wouldnt have a problem with it..But i wouldnt had done that then ZEROLIFT wouldve been my go to place for a motor.

I hope everything comes out good..

No hate for my frozen brethren. It's just dealing international is a great way to get screwed. If I was in Canada I would strongly caution my fellow moose huggers to avoid them bastard yanks and buy from a local shop as well.

Fuck Zerolift. Never got my SSR wheels from them in a groupbuy and had to go through my credit card company to get my money back. Yeah, I dealt with "Robert" and all I had were excuses and delays till they finally stopped communicating with me.

http://zilvia.net/f/group-buys/23903...e-order-2.html

Sad to see they are still sponsors here.

I went through them because they seemed to have good reviews, but people keep dropping their name over here and in this thread, and I'd hate for someone else to get fucked like I almost did.

There's plenty of other options in Cali/Texas/Florida, so do your research!

You will be surprized to see what gets intersepted on the net or phone these days. Try posting a return email to some random craigslist ad with your phone number in it and see if 1 out of ten times you don't get a phone call the next ten seconds. Here we are all under the watchful eye of the government and anyone with a deep enough pocket to purchase that info to use it for solicitations will and there is nothing YOU or I can say.

Glad to here you took charge and froze your credit.

Dude did you realize that you paid with paypal haha you should've called them and cancelled the transaction or gotten your money back. This is why paypal was created to keep us from making stupid mistakes like the one you made.

I think I'll be alright I stopped worrying about it after freezing up credit besides these guys are calling from a land line if anything happens they can be tracked down. I doubt they'll do anything with it, although I'm still not cleared why they needed it.


Anyways, my motor appears to be in Texas already I gave the kingsway transport a call and they gave me an ETA of 2/3/11 , but I'll have to get them to ship it on 2/4/11 because I have work. I'll let you guys know and take photos of the engine and too be honest I'm not worried about the condition of it anymore I'm just going to sign it and keep it.

i got a notch top from naganousa last december, it came with the maf sensor which wasn't included on the sale, but the turbo-manifold gasket was blown and the propels damaged, but it runs strong anyway, just a little lag before 2500rpm

I wanted to know why it wasn't working and wanted proof that it was a junk engine. I figured I was doing them a favor by finding the problem.
Besides what are they going to do resell the junk engine?
All the pieces were there and I even assembled most of the engine to keep everything together. Live and learn I guess.
