i finally got vesko to work on my car, my suspension was all jacked up and the kw's owned my new camber plates, so now vesko has to fix the mess that the kdub's made

i'm excited to see what the car is like with a properly set up suspension finally

yeah, the car is back, i went last weekend to pick it up, and i was thinkin about the Green

also, didnt robi setup your suspension? why would it be all messed up, unless he did a hackjob, which would suck

i dont want to diss any vendors or say anything about it, but vesko pointed out a whole lot of stuff today to me that made me regret going with v3's

Robi is a really great guy and i love his costomer service, i just wish i would have gone with something a lil more $$ and gotten more quality out of a few extra $$

the screwed up suspension has more to deal with a hack job on camber plate install, hacked alignment, hacked ride hight.

vesko is getting this all straightened out, taking some good weight out of the car, and setting me up with some new springs, i am really excited to finally be working with him

that sucks about that man, what did he say about the KW's, you can pm if you'd like, also, if you dont mind i'd like to know how much he's going to charge you, if its not too expensive, i'd like to work w/ him as well

i'd like to see what he thinks of the muellerized setup

The difference between working with someone that is a racecraft engineer, and someone that is a forum ****.

What is the point of cust service if you end up unhappy? Too bad you had to learn the hard way, Riley.

The fact that you end up somewhere unhappy, instead of nowhere unhappy.

He charged me 120 (roughly, it took less than an hour, so can't remember the exact) dollars an hour SeanJhn when he did the extended wheel studs for me... That was after waiting 4 hours for him to do it (remember, the money has priority w/ Vesko), having it rain, and having him tell me to just go home because he didn't want to do it out in the rain (I had come all the way out to the track for this)... Then I found a tent (because he couldn't have any of the racecars sit in the rain, it would ruin the paint! ) and got him to FINALLY come over and do it.

He knows what he's doing for sure, and had I done suspension again on mine I would've gone with him as well, but I would've been on top of it a little better so that he gave me the same service that he should give all of his customers, wheelstuds or full racecar...

good points erich, i know better now, when i bought my coilovers, I didnt want a good suspension. i just wanted something that was cheap, dropped my car and did decently well, since then i have really really gotten into racing and want something that is a little higher quality. i guess the kw's were good for what i wanted wheni bought them. i will be buying some tien super's from vesko next year and offing the kw's

of course, like i said in my original post, robi was great, the suspension was fine up to the point that the camber plates were put on thats when it got screwed up. they have worked for what i bought them for but i think it is time to upgrade to something more capable as i get more and more into racing and i am sure you can agree

at no point did i blame you for my suspension problems. the part up top refers to not a problem with you Robi as you have been very helpful, it refers to me being cheap with the initial buy and buying your bottom line coilover package instead of say some kw competitions or some tien super racings.

he should read the next sportscar (SCCA national magazine) where WTZ's Evo has a perfect record for his regonal win(yes SIX wins)...and we won at Road America in the Junes sprints too....so all that's left is to win the runoffs...and complete the SCCA tripple crown!

I think this is the most offensive website I have ever seen.

http://www.treehugger.com/files/2005...d_exotic_1.php

and also suspension is worthless just add some hp, but forum drama makes for a very fun read. so thanks.
