Just so you guys know a thing or two about miniworks
Posted: Thu Feb 14, 2008 8:15 pm
HEres an email you might find interesting. Sorry read form top to bottom
Ohh btw, it wasnt $300 for the brakes and rotors, it came out to almost $800 of you remember correctly. I noticed that you dont even advertise in the states anymore? Outstayed your welcome? Another thing, i paid way less to have the flywheel and clutch installed and they did a great job. I am very happy that i didnt let you take apart my engine. What about the koni thing huh? After talking to people @ minimania, alta, and outmotoring; i found out that if you had marked and measured then camber before taking apart the ass end, you could have reinstalled according to speck and i would have never had an uneven tire wear problem. Also you lied to me and said that the calipers never rusting, not true at all because withing 2 months the things look just like the others. Also the clip you "forgot" on the brakes caused uneven glazing on the caliper and now i have to replace them within the year. You really fucked me over Victor and you jerked my chain for a month while i was out of the country. And the missing gasket on the exhaust was causing a substantial leak. Oh and i forgot that when you installed my brakes, you ripped and detached the ebrake boot from its little plastic frame which is another thing i have to pay for.

You are acting like an asshole.
OUR PRICES ARE FAIR, OUR WORK IS BETTER OR AS GOOD AS ANYONE ELSE
If you spend $200 to adjust the brakes, you are an idiot, there is no possible adjustment on the front brakes
and by the way $299 for rotors, pads and labor is a real good deal.
You are just a cry baby, all of THIS because we could not do the clutch and flywheel for YOU at a bargain PRICE,
and you had to take it somewhere else and PAY MORE.
You are right on one thing, I do not need you as a customer, nor do I need customers like you.
Victor

Just so you know, I just spent $200 on adjusting my breaks and another $500 in labor on the rear end not including the links ($250) and a gasket in the exhaust was missing. I hope that you dont do any more work on anyones car. I have told all of the local mini clubs (Tucson and Phoenix) that you work is $h*t and that you will rip them off. Thanks Victor for your help.
