GTM Performance Engineering & Forged Performance - Parting ways...!?!
My car was on it's way down to VRT when I found the post about their business ethics and how they had scammed people, if I had not be reviewing threads like this then I may have been just like the OP sharing my bad experience with you all.
Fortunately I read A LOT and called a few shops and found GTM but these threads are for everyone who is even thinking of going to the next level.

How was I trolling? I simply responded to the pictures I saw.
I know that you sweat the hell out of aam but dont get all butt hurt when someone doesn't like your beloved shop. FYI the reason I dont like aam is because they tried to burn me on a motor, for my 240sx back in the day. I know, have dealt with these guys from way back, probably before you even had a nissan, or knew anything about them. I have experienced there poor ethics/customer service on two more occasions since then just to "give them another shot" to see if they really changed. They have not. The "problem" individual is still there running the show. Dont start poppin off before you get your fact's straight.

Very nice work and numbers Jay'Z. I don't think anyone is trying to dispute that FP has put out some amazing cars. But there is also no way to deny that the 2 vehicles in this thread were really messed up by FP also. And there is actually one more G37 that is also at GTM being fixed that came out of FP in the same shape as the 2 in this thread (Doug's friend). Whether he starts his own thread or not, I guess we will see. Bottom line is that Sharif and FP dropped the ball on a couple of big installs recently. Only time will tell if they rectify the situation.
My biggest issue with Forged saying the guys that did the shotty work were terminated means nothing. I own a small private school. My wife or I are here everyday from open to close. It doesn't matter if you are busy with paperwork or whatever, YOU, THE OWNER are supposed to check on workers and projects on a regular basis, if it were my shop the retards would have been fired during this installation and had someone that knew what they were doing (aka not getting high out back before working on a car in my possession) to fix everything that the stoners/drunks did on the car. So IMO Sharif can not "dodge" the bullet by saying he fired these guys. If you look at the pics of that poor guys car, I mean really? Tire rubbing the intake...mmmmmm...bet that smelled good, bashing in the inter-cooler piping? Cutting the subframe then on top of all that backing my car into a pole or whatever? proly smoking a doob in the guys g37 when they cracked it. ME PERSONALLY, I would have called up my attorney long ago and had Forged buy me a brand new g37, especially with only 1500 miles on it. WOW!!! Forged ruined a brand new car, I would understand if you were asked to drop a LS V-8 into a 240sx, but not just putting a turbo onto the engine already in the engine bay. Oh and it is very obvious that there was some type of detonation in the block, otherwise there is no way that the rods would of bent. My father was a mechanic at CarterMachinery for 27 years and a crew chief of a local late model stock racer years ago and he read and looked at pics and even though he said, and excuse my language, "Don't know much about those Damn Japanese cars, but something seriously went wrong, that is definite detonation." That from someone who has detonated many engines in his lifetime.

Good point and I good insight from you and your dad. I think things are going to get worse before they get better. More stuff is starting to slowly come out over on my350z.com. Things are really starting to get ugly. Well, uglier than they already are, if that is possible.






you said pop off......
