Dealing with R****t Industries (ARP Distro)

Ill let this excerpt from my project diary speak for itself:
Quote: |
Yesterday, i phoned up regarding availability of the ARP bits to their distributor here in Australia. After being fairly rudely asked to hold i was then answered by another person altogether who asked in a bored fashion what i wanted. So i asked for availability of the head studs and flywheel bolts. Now the head studs were ok, as i had the part number for that set, but actually getting information about the flywheel bolts was the hard bit. Firstly i was bluntly told that i didnt need ARP bolts for a "small piece of Jap s**t", then i was told that they had some, but i didnt really need to bother for something which "wouldnt make more power than a mouse". After finally getting the part number out of the guy i asked how many bolts the pack contained, and was told that it contained six, because thats all there were on any revision of the 4A engine. After telling the guy that they came in 8 bolt configuration too, i was told that if i wanted to argue that i could "f**k off back to ching chong land". At this point i seriously got jack of this guy's insulting manner and hung up on him.
So off i trundled down to Bursons to order the ARP bits, with my new found part numbers, and my Exedy flywheel. And today i went back to pick up all the bits. And look what i found:
Oh my goodness.... would that be an 8 bolt pack.... just maybe.... 8 bolts.... gee how hard is it to count. /sarcasm
