Good shit. I don’t agree with Dave on a few things, but he’s without a doubt a knowledgeable guy and an honest vendor.

Lot’s of Buschur parts on my Evo, no complaints. I improved the double pumpers wiring, Dave does not agree but I’m the one that wires aircraft for a living:lol

Unfortunately it happens a lot. Pretty sure Do-Luck stopped making their duck bill trunk lid for the same reason. They were doing all the R&D and bringing it to market and it was being copied by Chinese shit and Rexpeed.

If hes a good friend of his, why didnt he just sell him a box instead of making a friend go through dealers?

$145 for less than $18$ in aluminum sheet bent on a brake 5 times, and a aluminum shaft drilled and tapped twice? Talk about a thief.

not to mention pumping them out in bulk; large sheets of material, water jetted, bent on a CNC break, etc.

Name is everything I guess.

Ohh missed that fact.

Still, if he knew that was the case and went to the extent to set him up, why not take a more professional and respectable (from a business stand point) of simply NOT selling his product to them?

Not condoning stealing someones work/ideas/whatever at all, other dudes is a scum bag anyway, but I am saying its rather scummy of this guy publicly ruining the other guy. Which if he is simply stealing ideas, and not even re-producing them correctly, will put himself out of business anyway.

BUUUT, I can see where he would be pissed sing his name put on inferior parts.

so i call it a wash. I guess.

Shits still overprice for what it really is. 🙂

He isn’t selling his product to him. He hasn’t sent him a battery tray in over two years.

A mini battery (or relocated battery) is the only way you can properly route the IC pipes on an Evo. Brand names are irrelevant.

you could call me the meanest name in the book, and i will still smile everytime you post…the pjb gif LOL

i read the buscher facebook wall, seems like james is just digging himself more and more into a hole, and dave i just keeps insulting him over and over, and he just stays professional the entire time idk how. The story about the z06 in the dyno shootout is pretty redic
