Message I refuse to purchase anything from AMS anyway, and I refuse to register on 300zx club.
Given the choice of paying $200 for a "knockoff" or $600 for the real thing from a forum sponsor/vendor, I'll buy the $600 product. (this is just an example). If it were not for tt.net, its members, or the forum sponsors that continue developing new parts for our car, then our "Z community" would be quite different.
These "copy cats" need to go be taken to the cleaners on copyright infringement to get this stuff to stop. This is ridiculous.
