I am not going to make any comment on GTM or the struggles they may or may not be going through.

I would however like to reach out to the employees of GTM. I have seen a few employee names pop up over the years. One name in particular is Mike, and I believe there is or was also a Raul? Each time I see these names come up I see comments about excellent Customer Service and great attitudes. This sounds like the type of person and/or people that would fit well here at STILLEN.

If the situation is not what it appears to be and GTM is doing well and will continue in business then we wish you all the best. However, if that is not the case, we all need jobs and I would like to extend the opportunity for us to sit down and discuss our futures. If any GTM employee is interested in speaking with us please send me an email with your resume at kmillen@stillen.com.
You know, when I first saw your post I automatically assumed that you were just here to plug your product (seeing as you sell the only other Z34 SC kit out there) and I was all ready to start yelling but never mind. Mike is a good dude. He was/is(?) generally sympathetic and helped make things right when I bought a kit from them.

Glad you're using this opportunity to "do good" rather than treating it like a sales opportunity. For what it's worth, I would have gone with the Stillen kit if it put up the numbers the GTM kit does in a heartbeat. You can throw a lot of tune shops into the "risky" category but a company founded by Steve Millen is probably a safe bet.
