It's misleading in terms of their labeling on their boxes etc. Something I was prepared to take-up with relevant ministry in fact I was ready to all the way to the Minister if I had to. Luckily the were no PS products installed in my car or I'd make a police report for fraud; win or lose is not the issue but if you stand behind your brand then it shouldn't be a problem to make a statement down at commercial crimes.
End result, a very good friend who knows CF from many years back, in fact prior to me knowing him had introduced us with the very best intentions and if I had proceeded with anything drastic it would put him in an awkward position both in terms of my friendship with him and his relationship with CF neither of which was worth jeopardizing at least on my end - money, cars, women etc don't come between friends and I stand by my friends and respected his request to drop everything if CF dropped his ridiculous claim of RM4,500 in "storage and loss of revenue" - if you're overseas and you've got my car without me having access to it how is it you're able to charge storage and what loss of income when you're away for over a month in China? Ridiculous.
So all in all, on my end my car was stuck for a couple of months with no progress however CF did rebuild the RB30 to a level which I believe is near unbreakable (knowing me everything IS breakable
) and now I'm moving on. On his end, he rebuilt an engine for free for which he'd normally charge a couple of grand so that's the loss he has to bear. I've had to miss out on perhaps 4-5 events where the GTR was meant to participate in for the sole purpose of promoting the Rev-Junkies brand which is the reason behind the whole project to begin with.
So we both lose out from a business point of view but at least we both walk away knowing that we win some, lose some. My lawyers always have work to do anyway so this is but a minor undertaking for them. At the end of the day, I've no issues with CF until this PS-Party Spoiler fan boy decided to pop-up. I'm willing to overlook a lot of things as I believe the majority of ZTH know by now what is real and what isn't.

The thing is my car was never declined as I never even contacted any workshop in Sunway. Truth be told, two friends volunteered to store in their workshops in Puchong and USJ1 respectively until I figured out what I wanted to do and I was torn between where to have it towed on the day I took car back.
I've dumped my cars many times unannounced sometimes for up to months at a time as I think of what to do or if I'm preoccupied with work but so far no one has turned me away. Desmond has stored my GTR and STI for up to six months at a time when I had lost interest and never charged me a single cent in storage.
If I was a bad customer who wanted things done for free and never paid, would he have done so? In fact, I could have gotten N1 to sort out the car from Day 1 and not worry about anything until Desmond rings me saying "Bro, your car is ready" but I chose to go about the RB30 based on a debate we had amongst the Skyline guys on which stroker kit was most "bang for your buck" and with some friends in the business I figured why not give them a try in sourcing etc.
It all went well until the last corner, with the final straight nearly in sight when all things came down to earth in pile of $hite. Haha oh well, always look on the bright side of life.
