spike, I didn't close this because most of the arguments have stayed on the topic, and it seems like a good debate, even though at times it seems to get a little rough. I don't think this one has crossed the line yet.

The first Miata I ran was this little white, lowered fella with wide rear wheels, which after taunting me, goaded me into running him up to about 50-60 mph. He took me. Of course mine was green, I launched off idle, and I'd like to think his supercharged, because that Miata was just not normal.

For all the heat, I'm sure that VT will get around to removing those parts, and I'll bet it'll be real soon.

One last question for VaporTrail - whad'ya think, Mugen headers worth what they ask for them?

Dang VT, you coulda done this a lot better.

Fact is, once you got the money, those headers belong to KraziK. If you've got a problem and it's inconvenient to remove them straight away, a better course of action might have been to ask Krazik's patience rather than telling him to wait. I'm sure he would have been far more likely to be oblige.

Bit late now. You've expressed to the board and to me personally that you don't care what others think of you, and I guess that's fortunate under the circumstances. It's not a real good policy in business though.

Hurry up and sell that S. If anyone is thinking of buying it, make sure you pick it up at the time of payment.

Finally decided to read this thread after I saw it went to a third page!

This is a funny thread (at Krazik's expense, sorry) since for the last 8 months I've been very subtly (or not sometimes) trying to tell everyone how much of an a$$hole Quick/VT is. In the mean time most of you have been buuf'n him for the past year thinking he was an all mighty god of car knowledge

You guys need to brush up on your skills, I spotted him on his first reply to one of my original posts

What come around goes around.............it's that Karma thing again..........I know we've talked about it!

I beg you John, don't respond in your defense, nor to mock any more of your customers and possibly future customers out there. Your responses are not coming across in your favor, and even though you can't tell, or possibly dont care, then just ignore this thread and do what you gotta do. Its not healthy for any of us to go back and forth bickering, and in the end it will all be resolved.

All this does beg the question... when everyone was waiting for their k&n group buy... was Vapor just too busy to get them off the shelf!

Maybe in the future this should become standard procedure

NO USED PARTS SHOULD BE OFFERED FOR SALE ON THIS BOARD UNLESS THEY ARE READY TO SHIP WHEN THEY ARE POSTED FOR SALE HERE.

WOW! I don't know what to say. This thing has seriously spiraled. Krazik wants his part, John wants a little time... yadda yadda yadda.

This is turning into a real conspiracy theory.

Anyway, all this talk has got me in the mood to buy some headers. Hey, VT, can we start bidding on them? I'm sure you can better the selling price, give Krazik his money back (PLUS interest!) and make a little coin in the process.

Hahahaha!

I'm JOKING, people.

I completely agree. OR atleast on Tueday when the headers weren't removed he should have told me then. Not the following sunday.

Hey. You guys are blowing this way out of proportion. I mean, what's a thousand dollars between friends? C'mon, it's funny.

Anyone care to wager on how long ago VT would have locked this thread if he was the "infant-terrible" moderator of this board, too? Thank god those days are long gone. Another reason to thank cthree.
