coinsidence???????????
A large and very expensive one, t28 spent a fair amount of dosh there too, what did he end up doing???
The problem is north of the border there isnt alot, hence why most go to ava, once they have you its a hard hook to get off i think
Either way im sure their (car tuners) all the same, its a market isnt it?

True Jonny i think alot of the cars that go there do end up big specs and then when the owner gets bored , splitting them is the only way to get your money back. Its not just AVA either just look at all the big spec cars that have been split in the last few years with people moving away from the brand.

100% mate, its just that ava are closest to home and you tend to no more about them than others
Still it doesnt help that there most "big powered" cars have been broken, what does that tell someone wanting to get there car done you no??

i think if i let them do more to my cossy they'd be good its just that i like to do all my own work so dont thnk they want to know me cause i just want the fueling checked under load on the rollers
now i've said this i might be taking my cossy there next week to get it set up
give them another chance, its 2wd this time so will cost less lol
about carlo's thread,
it says something like
"take my car to ava?, no thanks i dont have that kinda time in my life"
and its still the same cause he's in new york fo a week so cant reply or change it lol

A hear you loud and clear mate, awsome comes to mind
Will yours end up broken like the rest tho is the question
As neil said is it the only way to get some cash back??
Sometimes i regret not tuning my car past stg3, the cossie needle injects hard and its even harder to get out, so power was always on the menu.
Im now glad i didnt cos the missus would have left me and i`d be homeless

i said they were shit hot with rst's
nuffin about us fittin a clutch that wasn't up to the job
and for neils benefit
as i said i'm not they're biggest fan but only due to they're attitude sometimes
but they're work/engines etc are top quality and will rival the best out there

any one want to buy a proven low 10 sec engine brand new everything built by turbosystems....you could have it by the end of next week 10k for the complete package....nationwide delivery available.....
save you waiting 3 years on an engine that will cost you more and will do less from someone else.....
as per pic in sig

[quote=NEIL A;3882856]Yip we have all bailed and left Col and Wul to fly the flag.
Im just hoping all this shit on here isnt putting people off buying my engine as it realy should sell on spec/parts alone.[/quote]
Dont worry about that mate, as you said spec and parts alone its worth it, im not trying to put them down or anything, i just see it from a neutrals point and not through the cossie goggles any more
I grudge putting Ł20 in my missus puma once every fortnight now, i used to spend that a night on the cossie

I don't know the guys from AVA but judging by their rep I can't see why you would ever take a YB anywhere else in the area.

but i just had a bad experience with them before with my old saph
not going into detail but basicaly it melted a piston and after i fixed it and took it back for another set up said i must have been fucking about with it and it ws my own fault, i honestly hadn't been, wasn't even complaining or anything, just mntuoned it wen we were talking, then totaly contradicted everything they had told me on my last visit,
just lost confidence in them after that
but as said every rst i've ever seen come out of there was brilliant
maybe i shoild give them a 2nd chance
do you charge the same for 2wd and 4wd martin?

thats my point mate
they charge 60 per hour for 2wd
and 75 per hour for 4wd
same rollers
same people
same thing
but they're the only 4wd rollers around so if you want it you got to pay the extra
theres a few 2wd rollin roads so they cant rip you off for them

thats very reasonable martin, much better than here anyhow
do you map l8 with seimens, i've got the stuff to do this and i'm gonna swap to it during the summer, was thinking stu but wouldn't mind coming to you instead
whats the average cost of a live map if you do?

he will love it if he buys a propper car with a good story....loads and loads to choose from now and just kick the seller in the bollocks with an offer
