So...basically this all happened last year and however it was sorted out, J's Racing has decided to post the situation and the letter. I guess them doing that hints that the negotiating with AJR was not smooth. Cause as far as I know, AJR is still in business, almost a year after the impended deadline. So, just don't buy J's Racing stuff from AJR or if you do....you are stupid in the first place for spending so much money on a car part.

I'm not surprised. At all actually.
I haven't personally dealt with these guys (I don't drive a Japanese car) but a buddy of mine with a TSX has and the experience was nothing short of crap. A simple coilover install was a fucking gong show by the time everything was all said and done. Appointments were rescheduled, the coils weren't even installed properly in the end and to top it off they wanted to charge him extra when we went back to get them to fix the problem, riiight.
I've been around cars and shops since I could walk and I've never seen anything like this.

maybe this is why that AJR S2k got set on fire sometime back? Someone got ripped off real bad and wanted to take his anger out on the S2k?
...alittle too much to set a car on fire though

Since this J's racing exhaust was brought up, I remember a few member from Subaru forum NASIOC.com had brought up a debate as of why the Volks Racing wheel sticker have a different color ? The set of Volks that was purchased from AJR had a different color than the set bought from another local shop.

T1R = Taiwanese made knock off products by AJR. (minimum 500% markup)
Type One Racing = Genuine Japanese brand by Spoon. (~100% markup)

These are guesstimation based on my previous job with a local car shop, japanese company, and self imported Taiwanese made car parts.

Reading some of those threads... it's pretty obvious there was something going on there for a long time... and yes, it's just hitting RS now apparently.

Looks like a lot of A&J customers bought fake stuff.... shame, shame.
