26598, Has anyone paid, and recieved their turbo kit from NER?
Posted by ourformerselves, Jul-15-02 04:47 PM
Like the subject says. Has anyone paid & recieved their turbo kit from New Edge Racing? I have the money right now for my 1F kit, and am contemplating whether I should pay it now and have it shipped, or just pick it up this weekend while I'm in LA.


Thanks, Richard (97 ESi)

Paying mine off and having it shipped in 2 weeks just gotta wait for the next paycheck.

Damn, I can't wait to sell my wheels. When you guys get your kits could you post pics?

>When you guys get your kits could you post pics?

Yes, definitely post some pictures before the install w/ all the parts and after it is all ready to go. I want to see how the turbo fits on that exhaust manifold w/o hitting the radiator or the fans. The picture of the manifold that I have seen looks like it would be one tight fit.

Has anyone been trying to call NER lately? I've been calling all day and it just rings for about 1 minute, then I hear a beep, then nothing happens. One time instead of a beep I got the sound of either a fax machine or internet connection. And YES, I was calling during business hours.

Na, its cool, I talked to Shaun yesterday. I called him up to get my grand total on my kit to know how much to send him. Just keep tryin is all I can tell you maybe he was at lunch. On friday I calle him and talked to some lady i guess his secretary and she said that Shaun told her to let anyone calling about their kits talk to him so no one would f anything up. Just keep tryin. BTW i got him on his toll free number too. 1-866-800-2155. :thumbsup
P.S. Believe me I will take plenty of pics when I get it and during install, etc...

I finally got thru to Shaun on the phone today. He said that there was a blackout yesterday, and that's the reason the phone was out.

I hope that's not true. My kit was supposedly shipped on Thurs., so we'll see sometime this week.

Posted by ourformerselves, Jul-21-02 06:23 PM
Have either of the 2 people that paid-in-full recieved their kits yet? I think it's pretty messed up the way this "layaway" option works. I looked up the word in the dictionary and it is completely different to the way NER is doing it.

Webster definition:
1 : a purchasing agreement by which a retailer agrees to hold merchandise secured by a deposit until the price is paid in full by the customer
2 : to put aside for future use of delivery

NER definition:
1 : we'll take your 10% down payment, then keep paying us more and more money, and once you get your amount paid off we'll try and start to put together your kit

I've only paid the 10% down payment to them.. and have the other 90% in hand, but have to wait for Shaun to get the manifold in. I live in Vegas.. but will probably drive all the way down there to pick up the kit, unless I hear that people have been recieving their merchandise from them.

I tried to check out the BBB.org but it kept timing out on my browser when it was pulling up the records.

That dude up there ^^ was lying,Fooker. Heres what I found:

"Based on our standards, we rate this company as having a satisfactory business record. To be rated satisfactory, we must first have company background information. The company must also have been established long enough for us to gain a clear understanding of the nature of its business to determine that it is not a marketplace problem. Finally, the company must have given proper consideration to any matters we may have referred to it. Our complaint history for this company shows that this business has a clear record. To date, no customer complaints have come to our attention. This company is a member of the Better Business Bureau and has agreed to the Bureau's membership standards, which include a commitment to ethical business practices.

There you go. :thumbsup

I have some news:

I talked to Shaun today and the guy who makes the stainless steel manifolds has run out of materials, and will not be getting in any more for 2-3 months.. so the manifolds will now be made out of straight steel. I'm sure Shaun will post some pictures of the steel manifold here soon.

Man I'm sick of all these new haters coming on to this board. In that past couple months it's been just getting worse.

mitifto go buy a honda and get off this board. your lies and hatin' are not only annoying but stuff like that gets in the way of what 2gnt is here for.

cvedeclipse, gorkoracing, and I were all backing up Shaun b/c some previous peeps kept hatin' and now he won't even post anymore. it's too bad b/c I think he is a great asset to our community.


Anyway, just ranting.

^^^ damn well said.. by all of the new guys bitching about NER.. they have just caused a HUGE source on information to leave the board... you do realize that shaun has been part of this community since the beginning and he knows his shit.. he has put this kit together to HELP the community... hes not making much money off the kits, prob not worth the trouble he has been receiving... ease off.. go ahead and try to get another kit from somewhere else... im sure you will find that your kits will not be at your door step one day after you finish paying for it... goddamn!!!!! (more venting.. sorry)

I guess I shouldn't have started this thread. I just asked a simple question, and all the haters came out. Shaun is working really hard to get these kits out to everyone, but some people still feel like that's not enough. Give him a break.

BTW.. if anyone thought I was hating when I posted about the layaway program, then my bad. I read it over today and it sounded kind of bad on my part. I have all respect for Shaun & his company. I just didn't understand the concept behind their "layaway program".

I'll be picking up my kit on Thursday, and will post pictures Thursday night of the kit.

Yeah, I've only been here since ^^^^^^...and am probably still considered a new guy. But I do agree the past month or so a lot of arrogant cocky hatin mofos have been up in here. I talked to Shaun a few days ago myself...even though he did say he is not going to be posting on here anymore he did say he is starting his own little NER group. I am not going to divulge the details that way the haters won't journey to it. But e-mail me or ask him about it if you want to know. That way we will still be able to get tech support from him and stuff while online.
