Anyone messed with Zerolift?

I am in Indy, and wanting to have them finish off my sr20det s13 red top swap in my 1995 240sx. I was just wondering if anyone has dealt with this shop before?

I am just weary of shipping my car off without knowing much about the shop. Everything I can seem to find on the company on the forums looks pretty good, but I was just curious as to any members that might have personal experience with this shop that could give me some input.

Forcedfab in dayton will be a little cheaper and you will get the same quality of work if not better.

Have you contacted Hybridynamics in PA? They would be a great shop to finish the job. They even have a company that they work with that will assist in pickup and delivery of the car.

Throwing it out as an option. You get what you pay for I guess. Good Luck!

Ordered my 1JZ from Zerolift.
My attraction to them was how frequent they have containers entering the U.S.

Robert, is always available for questions and has answered all of mine very promptly.

Mike, who I personally spoke with at MDU Round 4 in St. Louis, was very encouraging and professional.

I do not have any experience with their work and the shop itself. Based off my customer service experience through purchasing an engine, they'd be on my 'A' list if I ever needed work done and was closer geographically.

So much hate... do you just make shit up as you go now a days? i really exist i have been in business 6 years this month. I have had a shop that entire time, and its really full of equipment. Just because i dont ride indy nuts or make an effort to sponsor your forums and events doesn't mean i dont have a real shop. It just means i choose not to spend money advertising to the drift scene as much as i used to. I quit participating because honestly the return is just not there anymore. The kids in the scene now compared to 5 years ago are just not the same quality. The drivers that are going places are going places because they are self motivated and can get shit done themselves for the most part. Then there is the fact that i sank a ton of money and labor into a select few sponsored cars, but the midwest never saw them because the owners took the cars as they were getting finished up for a season and sold them/ parted them out instead of holding up their ends of the bargin. That really left a sour taste in my mouth regarding supporting people like i used to. Why spend thousands of dollars and hundreds of labor hours building a drivers car only to have them put it in your ass after its all said and done?

I'll be back out this year as i am putting together a car for the season for myself. i started the relaunch of our webstore which i left un touched since 07-08 to focus on building cars and doing in shop business. i will be returning to forum advertising and starting getting the shops name back out there since i have had some work done to our new site. We will be back out helping out Dayton drivers again this summer unlike last summer.
Dave will also still be there with us drunk and showing his penis. he still works for me part time, but hes got a big shot gig now so im just a little guy employeer lol.

Sincerly

Jon from LOLOHIO and ForcedFab

Did you leave a message? i normally do not return calls that i miss when i dont have messages. most of the time i am out in the shop running equipment so its common for me to miss calls through out the day.

if you still need any help or have questions give me a ring and leave a message if you dont get anyone. We are here from 11 to 7 m-F

Jon

Zerolift lies and they have been ripping people off for many years. Search in google. Theyve been rejected from several forums they tried to become sponsors on.

There were two huge threads on this forum of how they ripped people off. They both got deleted.

Thank you, I'm glad someone remembers one of my threads at least. It seems like if you're local you get slightly better service, but if you're not then you might as well just burn your money.

Magical how they were banned here, then the threads got deleted and they became sponsors again.

Actually I'm local and got horrid service. To be fair, they are GREAT until something starts going wrong then it goes downhill fast. The people that have had positive things never hit a snag.
