anyways. uhhh who wants me to make seat lowering brackets (like binary) and sell for 50-70 bucks instead of 114?! Im also looking into making some LICP, intakes, downpipes and some suspension components. My Intake manifold is still scheduled to release by beginning of summer at the latest.
im officially here to **** off and raise hell among other vendors.
oh and once the time comes i will need local testers for the parts. Free parts are always fun

As much as I'd hate to agree with that statement, I am afraid he is right. Whatever the iPhone does, it does leaps and bounds better than most phones out there. It only looses out in the "can do/cannot do" comparison. But if there's something it can do, it is definitely premium quality.
Having said that, I'd never buy any apple product as long as their friggin predatory practices go unchecked. My money, My vote. I however had to succumb to my wife's choice when she asked me to get her the iPhone as a B'Day gift. LOL, so much for my ideals !
My money, My vote, My ***

very well, looking into getting a vendor account now. This is what i have wanted to do ever since i was 15. I will be 20 in January and have (what i think) is the knowledge to compete with some of these other competitors. Also having the resources (schools and university's) and the ability to get the raw materials needed i can finally say that i am ready to start.
and yeah evo-m 5-0 already warned me cause i threatened AMS and buschur for making thier prices sky high. and for trying to give dynolicious software for the ipod out for free on here.
As you can see i like my money, and i dont like wasting it. I know how much it costs to make some of these overpriced parts, and im not talking about "jdm" parts, I am talking about the good ol' parts made right here in the states. The way that i see it is if i can provide the community with tested, reasonably priced, easily manufactured parts, the people will buy. Its going to be hard to convince an enthusiast to buy a performace part of a 20 year old but this is what i want to do the rest of my life..Right now im in no "need" to make thousands and thousands off parts, but if i can make some extra cash to help me pay to get my second degree in mechanical engineering then that is a plus! i dont really like idea of having a boss so 10 years from now i really hope to be making a living off it.

IndyEvo who R&D the wilson manifold buschur sells had been banned and harrassed about this matter. Even though he didnt even sell a single manifold. They have all been sold thru Buschur and AWDMotorsports.WTF

nothing like using draconian tactics to enforce the integrity of your revenue stream.
i remember seeing that thread where IndyEvo got banned. seems like the ban hammer here falls with very little provocation.
i never did understand that. sure you lose your post count, your nick, and your username, but it's a public board. you can always just make another account. if they ban your IP, there are millions of proxies you can use to mask your identity.
hell, you could try banning people's MAC addresses, but then you can just change it with the right software tool, or worst case scenario, buy a new NIC card.

But if you are actively attempting to communicate and promote/make money off of product it becomes a royal pain in the *** to keep duckin
