Vuk is awesome he’ll takecare of you. not all of those parts went on. I installed the suspension parts while I was still at nissan, I stopped working there about a month ago. so a couple of weeks ago the parts that went on at AMS were clutch flywheel downpipes testpipes rear main seal pullies and betls rad shifter tranny mount clutch line fluids again there’s some other stuff into the car but they werent done on that day. big things to update on it after the summer seasons ---

i was banned at the time I’m assuming you mean saying tnc and then a thumbsdown symbol oh no what will I do you’re trying to screw me over with tnc growup… it’s not like I’;m gonna tell Vuk you said he’s just a middle man with a markup when it comes to building engines but yes thumbsdown I believe it was I dont think I’ve used ftl or ftw before not off the top of my head anyways ---

How’s it jumpy? I didn’t tell him you said any of that because it really has nothing to do with me. I was pointing out that doing that would be the same basic idea as what you jsut tried here. referencing something I’ve said somewhere else to try and turn people against me. So no I dont think there’s any cause for a ban I was stating that in my opinion you were being childish and an equally childish thing would be for me to say something to him about that. but it has nothing at all to do with me so it would be wrong. and where I saw that would be here > [@Another newbie to this board...](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/another-newbie-to-this-board/2799/31): > > Hey Church, > > I talk to Vuk (AMS) a lot and have bought quite a few parts from him. I have everything set to hand over to him and get it started, but I feel I can shed $1000 if I find a place myself. Vuk says $3G for what I’m looking at. I’ve sourced out all the parts totalling in $1000 and I figure labour won’t be more than a $1000 as well. Vuk actually sends it out to an outside rebuilder, **so he is really just a middle man with a markup**.

I have newly purchased turbos (bigger than the ones I’m selling in the FS thread), injectors, tunable ECU, dual MAF, bigger Rad, Bigger Intercoolers and a few secret weapons that people with similar builds will constantly try to figure out why they can’t touch me in performance. I’ve also seen you say things about being dissapointed in him as a parts producer when the [tt.net](http://tt.net) and socal fan boys started with all of their copy nonsense without and proof even though he has all the numbers to show his manifolds do outflow the competition. And then you changed your mind after he spoke up. Should wait til you have the info before you jump on the bandwagon but we wont get into that, because you’ve obviously decided to go the ways of AMS with your manifolds and 725 turbos which were a good choice by the way ---

either way Patrick it’s pointless so I appologize to you if I seemed jumpy that just seemed irrelivant to me considering the situation at the time. so I’d like to just forget about it because yes it’s just pointless so I’m sorry ---

hmmmm interesting. I mean the post where I’ve written to Church. I didn’t understand half of all the other things you said. Yes, like just about everyone out there, their decision is based on what they see and that was an important thing aid in my decision. I’ve made an agreement that I was not to disclose anything about Vuk’s Manifolds and I’m not sure why you’ve chosen to tell the world, but thanks on the compliment in my choices. ---

ok well again im pretty tired of arguing and its not going to get me anywhere so again i apologize. and I never said any of that stuff to Vuk since like i said its notmy business and i dont go telling the world. I was just saying it as a comparison as to what I basically see you doing with the tnc thing. so i dont know if you saw my post afterwords saying im sorry if i seem jumpy and if it seems liek im trying to discredit you, thats the onyl reason i mentioned them at all. and I dont tell the world about Vuk’s results either i said they outflow them, I never went into any details about the actual numbers ---

well you’re right though while i was banned before i did say thumbs down to tnc so I guess it’s not really appropriate for me to be here. I’ll ask one of the mods to remove me or ban me as a user then. just because i kinda see where you’re coming from this is not a dramatic suicide note either because im not wanted on tnc, I promise I will survive lol ---
