I was wondering when this would come up. I was expecting Daz to get an email, message or call from ASG at some point, but I don't think he ever directly mentioned ASG (?) everyone else just put the pieces together.
I have read (and re-read) Daz's thread heaps of times and it isn't a shining beacon of recommendation for ASG's EJ building. I wouldn't call Daz and amateur

I completely agree with this sentiment. For any workshop experience. However as soon as someone has outlined negative experiences about another garage, they have been met with being labelled as a bully or fan-boy by garage-x customers/supporters and pm'd with legal threats. This is why people keep shit to themselves (on both sides of the fence). Share experiences, then let people decide who they want working on their car. STechnic maintain my car by way of servicing, and I use ASG for parts/mods installation and tuning. I have nothing but praise for both because I have had all positive experiences from both so far. Until I have a negative experience, I will continue to use them. I have had two issues with another garage, I shared that experience (without emotion, just posted straight up facts) and I no longer use or recommend them. That's how it should be - people should post their experiences without emotion. It will save them from threats of libel/slander (well, in some cases) and will save them from alienating themselves from their peers. At the end of the day, if you're a reasonably intelligent person you will realize that there will be stories of both positive and negative experiences from just about every workshop. It's unfortunate that not everyone's history is 100% customer satisfaction but that's just how things are. You see the exact same thing in other car communities where people with outrageous builds swear by one workshop and then half a dozen people reckon they're a bunch of monkeys. My advice to the young kids/new members on SOWA and my Year 12 students who ask me about workshops is always this - ring around or visit, ask some questions and go with your gut instinct (eg. whoever gives you the most confidence in regards to their answers and enthusiasm for working on their car).

I feel like I've missed something here...
Can I just threaten legal action to feel involved or something?

I think the way they've handled it has probably done them more damage than the poor build has.
Im amazed the previous owners have remained quiet for so long. The sole reason for the break of silence has been the BS about the car being taken to somewhere other than ASG. I've heard this from several different people now and each time they've said its come from ASG. it's a piss poor tactic to blame a fictitious third party. What they should have done his hold their fucking hands up and take responsibility for it. Then some gesture to make the original owner feel like he's had something back for all the money that was unfairly charged had the job been done properly in the first place.

I will also add the story about the "we were just asked to throw it back together to sell" line they've Told a few people as well.
This in itself should raise questions. Not to mention that the very first build wasn't done properly because of the raised sleeves. This is why it required multiple builds. Finally if they want to sue me for what I've written I welcome it. Nothing that I've written is untrue or without proof so bring it on. This is the last comment I'm ever going to make on the whole sorry saga. It's disgraceful the a business think they can do shit like this without it coming back to bite them. Reap what you sow and all that.

Was coming back from St.John of God Murdoch and the whole was home on South street every lane was blocked by a car doing 5 - 10km/h under... the whole way to the highway. Then on the highway the sweet relief of open road was too good to resist pity the fixed camera is there, it is such a nice on ramp.

If my speedo reads 100kmph im actually only doing 94kmph. I use my gps for an accurate account of my speed. Im sure if everyone used a gps as a speedo, it would make a huge improvement to Perths woeful traffic congestion. My speedo shows 106kmph when im on the freeway and i havent had a speeding ticket yet. So im doing exactly the legal limit and im flying past almost everyone... Except for the smarties that have worked it out also. |

This ^^^ Mine is close enough to just meeting ADR at 10% slower than true speed. It came about when I changed rims.
So when doing a GPS 100 km/h on the freeway my speedo reads 110.
