as said above the type of person Ishaq is, he would never have left a bad feedback against TD or anyone, just suck it up himself, BUT thats not the way to deal with it, hence i took it on me to write this bloody essay Ammar (ishaq's brother)

The fact they lied they knew the turbo was fucked so why tell my the turbo is tight blah blah, that was first risk of blowing up the turbo I had problems since day one when i thought it was going nowhere with them thats when i decided to put this FEEDBACK on I only complained about the price because it was far greater than the quote intially given to me and when the car got fucked, when you pay for something you expect it to be done AND im not his mate im his brother and why should this be locked am i not even allowed to relay my experience with them atleast someone can have a look at t

for a month? plus he had to work away up north (some extra money which would have covered some of his cost) but he couldnt because he didnt have a car.. plus he went for about 2 days and it cost roughly £150ish so it wasnt worth it..

well thats what we did, and TD gave time at the end of 2 weeks... he drives the car as a daily and after telling TD about the turbo they said its tight and it will free up, also when the HG was playing up the car was mostly outside the house and after the knocking noise its been outside home... he has to take countless days off work as he has not been able to make it...

Amen to that, no decent garages anywhere..! I am proud to say 99% of the work needed on my car (Almera 5Door with SR20DE Conversion), i would do myself, if theres anything i can't do then its a few members i know off the forum i'd go to. would NEVER EVER leave my car with a stranger or a garage..! they fuck up more than they fix AND THIS IS A FEEDBACK THREAD SO IM MERELY JUST RELAYING MY EXPERIENCE ITS UP TO YOU TO DECIDE TO USE THEM OR NOT

its one thing buying random parts off someone and its completely different story getting a conversion done... if parts faulty you could probz send back and get it changed or get a refund... what do you do about a half arsed converison which was a month late? and also im here to warn other people about the service you are likely to recieve if you deal with them...

Bit ironic that eh, jumping on the bandwagon to comment on this thread, got nothing to share then leave, dont want you to comment Ammar

As i said before if you'd read, Ishaq is not one to complain, its me (AMMAR) thats here writing this on behalf of him. Yes the car wasn't boosting properly after he'd got it, but TD's reply to that was "the turbos tight, it needs miles to freee it up" (BULLSHIT)

Cheers for the replies guys, yeah exactly, Ishaq aint the brains of Engines and Starlets otherwise he would've done the conversion himself, he asked a reputable business who call themselves "toyota specialists" to check the engine for him, which they obviously didn't which has led to this.. As Idrees said, personally i don't think the engine was primed nor the turbo... they're a bunch of goons at the place, everytime i popped down there, they'd be working on one of their mates car rather than the customers cars INSIDE.. Hands on heart, it probably ended up costing me around £100+

No real fault of fern IMO apart from checking the car after the accident if its in working condition before telling its fine but the way she came along really annoyed me like heres the car, thanks for the payment and now fuck off TD started the engine up and it was running when i got there...

wow seriously?

idrees? http://www.ukstarletclub.com/forums/index....showtopic=38365

Like i said before cars are cars so you never no when something is going to get fucked But lies, broken promises, and petty excuses like your turbo is tight and other things Had to get the following out of my pocket was supposed to be included Exhaust Gauges Turbo timer Boost controller Just for example few other people I've dealt offered to do something at least for example when i bought/swapped alloys with idrees something went wrong and he gave near enough full refund NOW thats what you call customer service

its the way they talk to you, at least have decency to talk properly, not like "dont be blaming me now blah blah" or "mate bring it down next week ill have look when im free" Its not like there down the road as well and with the fuel prices it hits me more

and like i said, im really out of pocket so cant afford to miss work and uni whilst cars off road again, would be easier to drop another engine in for now and get the current one rebuillt.....

Fuck paying out or anything at least have decency to talk properly not like "dont be blaming me now blah blah" or "mate bring it down next week ill have look when im free" Its not like there down the road as well and with the fuel prices it hits me more

Im not blaming on whats gone wrong end of the day its a car shit happens But the when you get broken promises, get told lies i think that pushes it to the limit

They might have had postive feedback but not everyone gets a fairytale end So i think at least i should be able to leave feedback

thanks for the offer bro... i had no way of checking the engine as it got delivered to TD... thats why asked them to check it...

The engine was in the GT i BOUGHT from Fern and it went straight to TD where i asked them to check it over.. but i also asked fern on a number of occasions to get it checked... things happen???? so you think its ok for me to pay about £1800 for a car i got back after 1 and a half months and now pay another £600 for another engine and £200 - £300 to fit after i have had car back for just over a week (less than 160miles) ???

thanks...

Right, as some of you know, Ishaqs been having fair bit of trouble recently with his car Initially he agreed a deal with "Fern", buying her Accident Damaged Starlet. When asked, she replied saying turbo was fine, and engine was running sweeet and no issues, and she assured him there were no problems, so as anyone would do he agreed and left her some money to get it dropped off... In the meantime he was in talks with few people as to getting the actual work done, spoke to a good friend of mine who said he would do it, but Ishaq was abit sceptical because the guy specialises in Nissans.. So he

thanks mate... maybe picking up an engine from the place that markoos bought his from... going to have a look tomorow...

I've had the worst week... as all you know my car went for a conversion in december, well i got it back last week with a £1200 bill.... so i thought one off payment and just trouble free for awhile... the first to happen as soon as it left the place was that it would not boost past 0.3 bar on high boost.... turbo 1 f**ked... had another spare one lying about and swapped that over, but that one didnt boost past 0.1bar turbo 2 f**ked... then whilst driving about on 0.1 bar boost, notice that the radiator is forcing water into overflow on boost.... but luckily that sorted itself out yday

looks very nice liam... good luck..
