Sorry to hear about your fitment issues. It sounds like you are getting sufficient support and the car should be back to you soon enough

It sounds like you are happy with the wheels

I told you I would get them to you in the condition they would need to be to put them right on the car

Can't wait to see the pictures. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help in the future!

Ah bummer, but it sounds like you are close. I'm surprised they can't get the car to you today though. They did a crap load yesterday in one day, not sure why they couldn't get an alignment issue straightened out today and have it to you by this afternoon.

It's not like they do any work there on Saturday's anyway... ;-)

DIY: Stillen header installation

And the photos and the issues he describes are 100% to a tee what the issue is I'm having. I'll be pointing Altered Atmosphere to the thread in the morning.

(Thank you, Semtex! I owe you.....again!)

You're welcome. FYI, it's Stillen's headers that throw off the alignment slightly.

They said they would call me when it was ready....of course that was 3 hours ago. I know they are busy....I saw about 3 or 4 GT-R's and many 350's in the bays, too. I'll be calling back after lunch to see where things are. (I did hear they fixed the exhaust/header issue this morning but it was before I could show them the DIY thread that semtex created.)

I know...I should ask how they fixed it and I will....after lunch!

Basically the same issue with me....work comes first. I'm glad I took the car in yesterday instead of today. I'd be freaking out when Friday afternoon rolls around and I find out I can't take the car home and they don't do modification work on the weekend. I'd have to wait until lord knows when to get my car considering work and all. So, not a bad deal being able to get it back for the weekend!

nogoodname · 07-24-2009, 12:27 PM

did Stillen give the fix idea or did they just did whatever they thought of??

That's what why I haven't asked yet....they had already fixed the car by the time I called this morning. I did however have them take a look at the DIY thread so they've seen it but I do trust Altered to do a good job. I must admit I would have loved to have been there while they fixed it and I could see them come out of the garage area and into the waiting room and say "Ok, all done..come take a look!"
