This thread isn't for people to argue about who is nut swinging and who is not.

My build research started back in late 2009 after I closed the deal on my 2009 NISMO Edition (while I was deployed to Iraq). I spoke with Sam and others at that time (GTM). For what they offered, it just wasn't worth the premium price that they wanted. The only other kit available at the time was Greddy. The Greddy kit had proven numbers and no issues. Of course you had to work your own management and fueling, but that seemed much better to me than the turn-key solutions that GTM provided at the time. For what I did with my build, GTM wanted much more and the parts were (more than likely) going to be rebranded or overpriced in-house pieces. Then they announce a MHI kit........come on man!

/rant

Say what you want, but GTM has never looked good in my eyes. I said it before and I will say it again.......GTM will never get any of my money! If the shoe fits, wear it. If it is black, quacks, and waddles, then it's a duck! Stop trying to defend a company that is not really pioneering anything, but making the claim. Rebranded parts are not pioneering the platform.

/end rant
