sorry to hear this story it pisses me off to no end hearing how business screw people, just a quick question, why did u pay them before some one could go check out the engine?

no offence or anything its just i hear this story a 1000 times when it comes to modifying cars, where people pay before the mechanic has done the work, or before the importer has gotten the engine, and then they get rorted.



Im not rubbing it in guys but this is for anyone who is thinking of getting into the car scene and dealing with people or businesses they dont know.

Rule No1: NEVER pay up front!
Rule No2: if they want a deposit make the deposit as small as possible.
Rule No3: DO NOT pay unless the job is done or you are there watching them load the engine into your ute after YOU have inspected it.

if you are getting an engine built and they ask for money for this or for that dont give it to them, they are a business they should be able to buy the goods and do the work before you pay.

hope this helps guys, also feel free to add more rules, also any chance of this being a tech article? Laughing Rolling Eyes Evil or Very Mad Very Happy
