Thumbs up Shout out to MPJ and Gruppe-S!!!

Wanted to make a special shout out to Soren over at MPJ for customer service above and beyond the call of duty. Thanks Soren for taking the extra time to make sure I got the right suspension and brake package for my car... and at a great price.

Wanted to also thank Tommah, Mike and Dev over at Gruppe-S for doing an awesome install job. Totally professional job, great follow through and free entertainment with the price of admission. Car rides and stops great. My family thainks all of you for the comfortable (yet sporty) ride while my car and I enjoy the new Apexi N1's and Stoptech "Big Reds".

BTW, funny story. On the way home I was enjoying a spirited romp off of Brotherhood Way testing out the new suspension and brakes... what should I see in my rear view mirror right as I reach the turn near Lowell High????

Chistmas lights.... flashing in my rear view. Keep in mind that in the past two months I have been ticketed twice (a vicitim of two "unlawful" speed traps in SF) and having just made a sizeable investment in my car hours earlier.... I ease off the gas and the lights are still behind me. All of a sudden this blue NSX BLOWS BY ME. I look up in my rear view and the flashing lights are gone and the cop is in hot pursuit of the NSX. Either he was completely oblivious to the cop or just plain stupid, the NSX fails to yield and continues to speed. The cop finally gets his attention and the NSX is forced to pull over. Damn close... too close.

Tommah... must have been the new brakes Smoke must have hidden my car.


Anyways... thanks for a great install you guys!

I'm in the process of installing my new brakes as I type. I'm just on my extended 10-minute break. Thanks, Soren!

Was the blue NSX driven by an Asian guy in his early-mid 20's? If so, it's probably the guy that lives around the corner from me. Every time I've seen him rolling around, he's driven pretty calm, but if he was playing speed racer yesterday, I guess he got what he deserved.

Asian guy I'm pretty sure... I know he wasn't blonde. I was just keeping from making eye contact at all. All of the traffic slowed down to 25mph. It may not have been your neighbor, I've seen at least two blue NSX's around the hood, it could have been the other guy.

MPJ & GB are amazing

I would also like to give MPJ & GB a +1...
They have amazing deals and professional installs.
I was just there on friday for a brake and suspension install, and they did a great job. Soren, Gino and co. are great guys.

Thanks for all your hard work,
See you soon for my VF34 install (hopefully)

Mike

You can also write a review of your customer experience with any official i-Club vendor. It's makes for a nice central location for all reviews so members only have to look in one place for all of their Suby needs.

Is it no wonder that MPJ Performance/GB Motorsports and Gruppe-S have more positive reviews than the other vendors? The people have spoken!
