Wow, i wonder what happened to that s13, i know the guy, he works at Joey’s, great guy, from what i know he doesn’t talk up about his car at all. Worked hard for it, and really loved it. He was sponsored by autodream before, but EZ came up to him and gave him a full sponsorship along with a buttload of free stuff. Don’t get me wrong, i don’t think he likes EZ either, but free stuff, can’t go wrong for only having a sticker on your car.

Btw-Braden had a tacky like beaver skin felt on the back dash, and egg shaped speakers, lol, im happy those are gone now.

I saw the driver of the car picking the plastic pieces of his front bumper off the ground, it was not a drift acident it was a simple collision that anyone could have been involved in.

No problem, just trying to put in a word of defense for a buddy of mine. Don’t know the details of the accident but i know about why he’s sponsored to EZ.

Just wondering, what sort of accident was it in? Shouldn’t have been too major seeing as how just his front bumper is effected(hopefully).

Btw-Braden i was in no way trying to bash you, just saying i thought the back was tacky, lol, my buddy tried to give me those items and as far as i know, he still has them.

Dont get me wrong, I hate EZ as much as the rest of you. But just because EZ is a fucking joke, doesnt mean that every driver who has an EZ decal on their car is too, while Ill admit MOST are.

Im with astro\_ng, I know the guy, hes a great guy and he sure as hell doesnt think hes hot shit.

well lets just say, for one thing he doesn’t think he’s hot shit, and two, he doesn’t think EZ is hot shit either, lol.

Lol, if i received a few thousand in free items, i’d probably go for it, i don’t make nearly enough to spend the cash you guys probably do on your cars.

Lol, im with you both actually, EZ has alot of joke of cars, wooo Civics and accords at the Tokyo Drift premiere in West Ed, total drift cars!!! Along side this car, the only actual Rwd in show.

But yea, bash EZ all you want, but the driver is a great guy, if you knew him, he’d probably go out of his way just to help you.

And once i finally do buy a car worthy enough of modding, it won’t be going anywhere near these guys, plan on going down to calgary and visiting Autodream, and my sister. Lol, mostly autodream but ill have some sympathy for the family.

Bashing EZ? I’m in…

The following is slightly embellished to illustrate the point of the conversation. I have no idea of the exact words used but this is the gist of it.

(Me driving by old SleEZmotorsports location May of '04)

(me to myself) “Hey, that’s a GT-R(R32). WTF!?” (stops car)

(me) “Hey, whose GTR is that?”

(them) “Umm ohh aaa…a customer’s car”

(me) “Really? What is it doing here?”

(them) “We’re going to do some stuff on it”

(me) “No, I mean it is illegal, what is it doing here IN CANADA?”

(them) “No its not”

(me) “Ah, yes it is” :finga:

(them) “No it is legal, it is an '88”

(me playing dumb) “What about '88 makes it legal?”

(them) “It has to be 15 years old or older to be imported”

(me) “You screwed up then, its a '90. It’s illegal”

(them) No it is an '88.

(me again) “Ummmm no it isn’t. That is an R32 GTR that would not be legal until at least August”

(them) “It is a GTS-T. They were made starting in May”

(me) “Its a GTR.”

(them) “No, GTS-T…just looks like a GT-R”

(me playing dumb) “So it is legal then?”

(them) “Yep”

(me) “Though you said it was an 88? but you just said it was legal starting in May”

(them knowing they are busted but trying to act like they didn’t know) “Well, that is what the papers say”

(me) “You forged the papers, and switched the vin numbers?”

(them) “We didn’t…the customer…I mean…” (panic sets in)

(me)" Why bother trying to import an illegal car only a few months early?

(them) “No, there are ways”

(me) “Ya, import it illegally”

(them) “No, you just don’t know about importing”

(me) "Hmmm. I guess you’re right. I’m going to contact Transport Canada and ask them more about it (makes vague gesture towards car and walks away) :plzdie:

(them…pants become soiled)

Yes, that was basically the conversation. Like I said, I can’t recall the exact words but that is basically how it went.

They thought they were so sneeky importing an '88 R32 GTR err… GTS-T (with AWD, RB26, body, etc.)

Losers.
