j03: take a deep breath.
okay, now take another one.

call them back and firmly (yet politely) tell them that these delays have gone on for too long and you need your vehicle ready by today at 5:00.

Who did you talk to? the guy handling your car or a supervisor?
go up the chain if you need.

tell them that you were told the car would be ready and that is what you agreed on so you'll be by in 3 hours to pick it up and you expect the car to be done.

I'd go there and say GET MY ******* CAR DONE! Or I'm taking it as it is and someone else will finish it and they'll send you the bill! Ask them what the reason is behind the delay. I wouldn't stand for these shenanigans.

Shady: yeah you're right.. they use what they get sponsored with.. but when that Tire is repeatedly on "winning" cars... I mean.... it can factor in somehow. Racers/Trackers that are sponsored i doubt will spend or recieve a tire that is not going to get them where they want and ruin their track times or championshipos over getting free tires. But I do get what you were trying to say, and I am just explaining my side so that you dont think i am thinking of getting them because of SPONSORSHIPS...So far I have read up on them on multiple forums and they have been getting good feed back. The thing that I like about them the most is that they have REAL GOOD dry/wet traction...compared to the NT01's..... NT05 makes a Good Street Tire that can also be run on the track... y'nah wut I meen?

Ryan, Falken 452 tires are really good, that's what I am running. But since your current tires are bald, I would get something used for now.

They buy crashed Rx's... its a group of guys who buy them crashed and then part them out... they have a website but i forggot the name of it....They just picked up a 06 Copper Shinka...complete part out but you have to call to get a quote on the part you need. They sell every little part of the car...They are located in Texas from what I remember.. You can possibly find them on ebay.. or the crashed shinka on ebay... thats how i found it.

I understand that you wnat to pay it off early.. But why? Are you planning to trade it in before it decreases anymore in value? Im just saying dont go broke over a car. A car will not feed you nor clothe you. Thats how many people lost their house and everything they had. They wanted to make double the house payment every month and then when they lost their job... and instead of saving money to have incase of emergencies... they lost their house. Had they not paid double every month, they would have had enough money saved up to keep the house and live comfortably until they found another job. Dont survive off nickels and dimes over a car. And Working two jobs just to afford a car will kill you. Ive done it... and it takes life away....
