Greg has pretty much founded himself (in my book at least) to be a reputable guy with a good product. His business practice speaks for itself. I've never bought anything from Greg (being the pimp daddy fab whore that I am) but if I weren't into building my own stuff, I would be inclined to buy from him anyway. I think we are all here for just about the same reasons anyway, we have the same cars and want them to be faster/handle better/look better/ etc etc etc and IMHO the more choices there are out there (even woodgrain interiors) the more diverse it makes the final products (i.e. your car). If everyone had the same Z with the same products on them, it'd be pretty boring eh? Just look at how many hacks I've taken over my interior. :) If you are in any business you know there is going to be some level of hostility toward the competition, but try and keep it on the down-lo; not everyone needs to see big long machine-gun spray posts like this one. Hell, I didn't even know about 'the issue' you bring up until now. It just doesn't look good for business when you jump out there and start justifying things to customers. Just let it be. : Listen, chris and i are not trying to shoot down greg dupree and his products. In fact from what i here he is pretty good and know what he is talking about. : chris and I on the other hand have no reason to talk shit because 1-we are not competing with greg for the same customers : 2-we are not competing with greg by selling the same products : 3-chris nj made his post on his own, because greg dupree made a really obnoxious comment about chris and it was by no means justified.
: we here in ny work on Zs because of the passion we have in making them better, faster and last longer.
: right now this is something we are building from the ground up, and we do what we do because we know the Z and love the car. : If greg and his groupy customers want to start a pissing fight then go ahead, because you are not going to hear me talk shit or bad mouth another mechanic. : i do what i do because i know it is right for my customers. : also we didn't blame greg for anything, we gave him credit where credit was due, but common sense says that with those spacers, it is more likely for the bushings to leak then if they were left alone.
: common sense says that they have a higher probability of leaking with the spacers then without, and if you can't see why then you shouldn't get involved in this arguement.
: i never said that all the bushings were going to leak, just that under severe compression they are more easily burstable. : as for the fact that they were over tightened, if what greg said is true about his spacers "fully compressing the stock bushings all the way to the metal" then in theory you shouldn't be able to over tighten them.
