Not to talk bad about you OP, but that seems to be a **** ton of money for not a lot of gains. I mean, it's awesome to have that kind of build under your hood and that you have "all motor" but gotdam, getting all of that done could not have been that cost effective.

But still, if you've got the $$$, that's your choice. Also, echo what BB said. I wouldn't have touched that company with an 80 ft pole. They seem to be some shady@ss people. I hope you don't get screwed like so many else.

I have never been screwed by GTM but that's besides the point. I am not the person who was lucky to have such long pocket to have these mods. Whoever the person who opted to choose to go that route more power to him or her. I for one don't tell a person what they ought or should do with their money. Broke MF's shouldn't have a comment to say, am just saying.

I don't think being broke has anything to do with these comments. This company HAS screwed over some members on this forum. I think most people here are pretty much giving a little bit of advice, for what it's worth. I do agree however that GTM does some damn fine work. (some of the time) I just personally wouldn't do business with a company that has the reputation that they have. It's like buying from an Ebay company with low ratings, sometimesthey get their **** right, but a lot of the times they don't.

Chapter 11 in general[edit]
When a business is unable to service its debt or pay its creditors, the business or its creditors can file with a federal bankruptcy court for protection under either Chapter 7 or Chapter 11.
Ah i see thanks for clearing things up. Very informative must have been quite bad then for them to choose that route. I actually met someone local that lost money to gtm and ended up opting for a stillen sc kit.

No, bankruptcy isn't bad for them, it's bad for the people that they owe money to. It lets them get away with not paying their debts to the people they owe. They still owe thousands to members of this forum (and others) who they took money from and never delivered product. Many will not see their money for a log time, if ever.

The OP went back multiple times. It's wasn't done all at once. GTM is banned from the370z forum. Sam stole thousands and is a POS!! One of his top designers/fabricators/techs told a whole long story how Sam didn't pay anything to them for months till they quit/fired but spent 40k on a new deck or kitchen or some ****. No ones left there to do any good work! Everyone there that had even a ounce of skill and made all the good parts you've seen before are gone.

These are brackets you get now for your turbo kit posted from a member on 370z FB after waiting a year or something for the kit. And not all of showed up and only got a few pieces shipped to him here and there. They also don't fit so he's had to make a few him self...

Any videos? Track times?

How come you couldn't do a ITB similar to this that I've seen other cars do? Looks sexy.

I didn't realize this was someone else's car.

I don't care what any one does with their money. It's their's, not mine. I personally wouldn't be so foolish to spend that kind of money for not much in return. But that's neither here nor their.

If you're suggesting that I am telling Johnny boy what to do, then you are mistaken. If you're suggesting that I'm "broke," then you shouldn't make such assumptions. If neither of these things are true, then disregard. I can't tell what you're saying.
