Next, I turned my attention to parts again. Starting with the radiator, which didn't look too healthy from the inside!
So out with the old!
Due to the horrible lower control arm pin problem we all know so well, I decided to do away with them and get some uprated ones. While I was at it, I figured I'd get all my suspension and brake upgrades from the same place!
Sooo.... I went to T3.
Now, I knew it was going to be a bit of a ball-ache ordering stuff from the states, but these guys really are the slowest company I have ever dealt with.
From payment (8th of June) I have only just received the items yesterday!!! (3rd September) Almost 3 months! They didn't contact me ONCE in this time to say it was going to be late - which really was my only issue!
After I had finally contacted them to find out what was going on, they said that they were really busy with (insert names here)'s project cars and they've run out of my parts!! Why should I care about any other car, but my own!! Am I supposed to know these people and care how important they are?? I had just spent almost $6K with these guys and they are treating me like a second-class customer!
Then, when I finally get the parts, they haven't been wrapped properly or checked before dispatch and therefore I have parts that have cosmetic damage! Not what you want to see after spending that money!
Needless to say - NOT a happy bunny!
ANYWAYS, rant over. This being said, the build quality of the parts that FINALLY came, really are great and I'm, very pleased with that aspect of it. Should parts of this quality become available in the UK, I'd recommend anyone to go there instead, but unfortunately T3 seem to be the only suppliers (and they obviously know it!!)
