DO NOT DEAL WITH MAZDABOY/KEIKO OLIVER

[Vteckidd]

This is kind of long winded, but stay with me.

I was contacted by Keiko Oliver to put a clutch in his car at Mainstream Performance. I told him no problem, asked his symptoms, he described then and towed his car up here.

Upon inspecting his car, i found the problem to be a BROKEN axle. I told him that there was no need to spend the money on a Clutch and install, all he has to do is replace his $50 axle. I tried to save him some money, he told us to go ahead an do the clutch and replace the axle anyway. After telling him a quote, he agreed. he told me he had ordered a clutch from NOPI. i told him i could beat their price. I saved him $35 on the clutch that he wanted.

We fronted the money for the clutch and the axle. we finished his car in 1 day.

At the same time, his SISTER was at our shop getting a replacement motor put in. This was the same car that the "PHANTOM HATCH" fiasco happened.

I called KEIKO to tell him his car was done. he said he would be coming to pick it up that day or the next. We called his sister and told her that her car was going to be done that night, because we bought the engine from PHANTOM HATCH and were in the process of getting it done. I told his sister we would call her that night to make sure it was ok to pick up.

His sister shows up to pick up her car. She waited 45min and when we cranked it up we knew the headgasket/block was blown. This is when i made the "DO NOT BUY FROM PHANTOM HATCH" thread. The car that dropped her off had left and she had no ride home. She called her borther, KEIKO, and he told us he would settle up the next day and we made the decision to release his car unpaid for , to her so she could get home.

WE HAVE RECEIVED NO PAYMENT FOR HIS CAR (he owes us $547.00) till this day. We have contacted him, left voicemails , PMs, and other forms of communication with no avail. He has told me REPEATEDLY that he would coem by the shop, or call and make payment. He has never come through. His car was completed on October 28th 2005.

Yes , we made a mistake of trusting someone and releasing a car without payment. yes we got burned. It is partially our fault for trusting someone. However , i thinks its really shitty that i went out of my way to save him money, and even told him he didnt have to replace his clutch , just a $50 axle. I tried to help him and he turns around and screws us. I even told him to just at LEAST pay us for the clutch we came out of pocket on.

He is also the PRESIDENT of IAC aka IMPORT AUTO CONCEPTS. If this is the type of leadership that represents their "club" then i want their current members to know how he screwed a shop over.

SO DO NOT DEAL WITH HIM, AND UNTIL HE PAYS US I WILL NOT REMOVE THIS THREAD.

you have 24 HOURS TO MAKE CONTACT AND SOME SORT OF PAYMENT, otherwise your going to force my hand. not to be a dick, but we will pursue all avenues to prosecute and make sure everyone knows what is going on.

we did a service to your car, pay us for it, thats all we ask. we have been MORE than generous in letting you wait.

If you can drop by AT least the money for the clutch, that would be great, its $255. let me know ASAP. thanks, MIKE


ok I can do that sorry it is taking me so long

[IntegraXTR]

damn thats fucked up, why the hell did he want the clutch installed if A) you already told his ass he didn't need it B) He didn't even have the money to pay in the first place. I agree with you, not too much of a leader if this is the type of shit he does.

[The Golden Child]

daym thats messed up ..

[Kevykev]

Very bad Business, Sorry that you trusted him.

It's situations like this that ruin it for the trustworthy people.

One's word is supposed to be honorable. Guess some people do not embrace that value.

[The Ren]

Wow.. thats some fucked up shit

[mccoy1178]

yea sorry to hear bout that situation. is his sister car still there? keep it for collateral or something.

Mccoy

[Jdm94Coupe]

yea keep the sisters car....til u get yo $

[Vteckidd]

we thought about doing that, but legally we cant do it. we cant hold her car for money another customer owes us. even though they are family. i mean we could, but we wont.

and her car has already left

[SOHC MONSTER]

thats shitty as hell...thanks for the heads up

[vtecgsrguy]

yeah thats pretty shitty of him to skip out on ya..... but he knows he owes u.... he's got a higher athority to answer to though....if ya know what i mean!!!

[Vteckidd]

still no word and no show.

[The Golden Child]

hope everything turns up ok for you and your shop ..
sucks that it happened ..

[Goinfasterthanu]

Sux when no one call you back huh?.....Nice changing my post...lol

[Vteckidd]

LOL, nice shot Goinfasterthanu

[green91]

thats terrible. if you didnt need IA for correspondance purposes with him id vote for a BAN

[Goinfasterthanu]

LOL, nice shot Goinfasterthanu


lol... you know me... But i know how i would feel if it was a 500$ job i did and i didnt get my cash. Then had to pay for parts.... Not cool

[Q.D.sucksdic]

I always get cash for parts in advance, so at least I dont come out of pocket.

[RutRoe]

Mike you've got his address right?

I smell a mechanic's lien.. and a repo.

I've got the number of a good REPO guy who's really cheap... and its certainly legal for you to do so...

Then if he doesn't pay you 30 days after repoing the car, weeeeeee you get to sell it.

Make this shit right kid. It's not a tough decision....

[RiceBoy]

Yo Mike, I am sure you know this but didn't know why you didn't do it the first time..Probably because it is not worth the time or you trusted the dude? But..., next time do a LEAK DOWN...Very simple and takes only 15 minutes.

[KevinT707]

I saw Mazdaboy's Protege5 wagon at a car audio shop on Windy Hill for the past few days

[RutRoe]

And for the record, the term I meant to use was IMPOUND, not Repo...

Or we could just go over there with some tools and get your clutch and axle back.. that should get you payed pretty quickly.

[Vteckidd]

still waiting, no word , or payment.

but if you check out the IAC forum , hes busy about getting a CAR SHOW together :rolleyes:

[B16a2 Civic]

man, i dont kno what to tell you.
i dont know him but his priorities seem to be a lil off.

[99SI]

Mike let me know and I'll get everything together that you need to do a mechanics lien. Or I can walk you through it step by step. Either way it won't be a problem to get this taken care of with the lien. If he has the car financed ie: there is a lien already on it then you will just have to wait until it is paid out but then the title will be sent to you. If he owns the car and has the title then it will be even easier to collect. You know I can take care of these title situations with ease so just let me know what you want to do.

[Vteckidd]

99SI ill get with you tomrrow about it, i have most of the paperwork done

[JDMBeau]

dang mike that sucks. hate to hear it, even more shady that he is posting on the site, and knows this thread is here, but isnt even attempting to back hisself up....that just shows he is scurrrred.

but yea do the lein and let the law do the rest of the work, he will get what is coming to him.

you still got your CF hood from your white crx BTW?

[JUSHAVNFUN69]

For future reference my friend it's himself. :goodjob:

[Vteckidd]

ok if thats what you want I can do that I will have the car up there (saturday) until I can pay you and by the way the protege is being work on at the shop I work at so if they have ever stopped in hten they would have see me working on it since my job is sponsering me. But back to business when would you like to arrange for the car to be brought up there?

this was what we agreed to. HE FAILED TO SHOW UP and bring me his car AS HE PROMISED. once again he dodges his debt he owes us.

real stand up guy :thumbdown: hes a child.

[RandomGuy]

this is going to get ugly, i warned you. Your car is mine, better keep an eye out for the repo man
lol why warn him... now the car is prolly going to be at his sisters house or something...
shoulda busted it out the blue like....

knock knock Shazaaam car gone... lol

[B16a2 Civic]

Hey mike sorry about not meeting you this weekend but If you like I can just tell you where the car is located and you can get it I am still not at home yet so sorry if I am not there for them to get it but it is already sitting in parking lot waiting so I will be giving you a call just in case you do not get this quick enough later


well, unfortunetly, we cant tow a car that isnt ours. so you have to call a tow company and have then send it here, and tell them that we will pay for it.

our address is
5014 Frank Aiken RD BUILDING B
Powder Springs GA 30127


Sorry mike just got home and saw your message I will call a tow truck in the morning and have it done if thats cool

[BTEC]

:blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah:

[B16a2 Civic]

well, yeah sounds like some beatin around the bush tatics, but i dont know him or his situation, so im just hoping for the best

[Ms Dollar]

that blows. why would someone dick around like that when you were doing them a million favors to begin with?! i hope everything ends up working out with this...

[Nismo]

I say kill him. Hes a low life

[Tank]

you know what i have to agree about shutting the whole IAC forum down and not publizing there lil car show or any events they might be havin thats so screwed up its beyond imagination you know i deployed and left one of my cars with a mechanic my team trust but we both agreed nothing would happen without money even so he accepted my car even though he knew i would be deployed. sorry to hear it good people get it in the rear sometimes but he'll get his

[Nismo]

his name is the same name as a fish

[B16a2 Civic]

well i wouldn't say penalize the whole car club for his actions, they dont have anything to do with it....that would be unfair, Marlon...who was the prez ( i dun know if he still is ) tried to help mike get it resolved....so i mean his character is fine....so why penalize what he started for one's actions.

[quickdodge®]

I have placed a post in there stating that if this isn't resolved very soon, that their forum will be put on lock. This is nothing but crap. Later, QD.

[Vteckidd]

i have no problems with any other IAC members, i just want hill bill paid. but the "im gonna take care of it today" and then CONSTANTLY not showing is getting old.

thanks QD

[B16a2 Civic]

Mike, i'll just say this, this situation is showing how your a flexible and understanding guy, its been close to 4-5 months and this is outstanding, if anything, this will only bring you more buisness, more then likely with people who pay upfront LIRL

[Vteckidd]

preciate it man

[Tank]

You are naive as hell with that thought process. You actually think that any job you get is automatically secure against anything? You think that you're boss would be understanding if he saw all this and then saw you threatening others that he would like highly at you? You should always worry about a job. Later, QD.

you know QD my job is secure i can't get fired and i get paid for not working and i get paid to be on vacaton sweet huh :goodjob:
