WTF, I got beat to posting about dreams. Anyways, don't know what to make of mine. I bought a Forester from prestige and was selling my STi. Then I took it to LIC and wanted them to put in a 6mt. I mean its not exactly normal but it sure as hell does not contain midget dogpiles.

The other day I drove all the way from San Jose and waited in 2 hours of traffic on 880...I was not very happy...anyway, I waited in the lobby for 15 min without anyonw saying anything to me. Infact I didnt even see anyone there to help me!! It was as if the shop was empty. First off how can you run a business like that??
So, I continued to wait, and I looked around...at all the parts I cant afford right now..when all of the sudden I heard a noise. It sounded like childish laughter!! So, now I am really pissed...these guys have time to play, but cant even help me out!!!
I go out into the shop and I see a group of naked midgets piled on top of the dyno...I was like WTH!!! I ran over to find Mike at the bottom of the pile laughing his head off....I mean, he was really enjoying himself!!! Then Mike grabbed my arm and was telling my to "join the fun"!!
Thats when I woke up from this nightmare!!! I was sweatting and was frightened...I couldnt go back to sleep....and Now I am afraid of the dark, and am looking for another shop to buy parts from.
Anyway, sorry for the long story...just thought this needed to be brought to everyones attention!! BEWARE OF MIKE....he's crazy like that too.

well people need to know the true reviews of shops and peoples experiences with them, one of the main uses of the forum. I never said I hated any shop, just that I wanted to be compensated for the whole thing. And as far as loosing friends, maybe your friends are people off the msg board, where as mine are not. Anyhow It seems pretty retarded you would have your own problem and then down the line make fun of other peoples bad experiences, basically it makes you look like a well, you get the idea.

DUDE, I completely understand what you are saying...trust me...as stated above...I am not trying to make fun of YOU, just that others are using the same "my nightmare" title!!
Now, as far as the "loosing friends" comment...no not all my friends are from this board, infact I hardly see anyone on this forum anymore. The only friendship I lost was with a tuner...but, both of us are still alive, and thats that.
What you should have done (as I have learned) is solved this issue with gruppe-s first...without posting. Then if when all said and done they say "we're 100% not at fault...we're not helping you"...then ok...post away. But from the sounds of it they are willing to help. Maybe they did make a mistake and in this case it would be a big mistake (when dealing with brakes), and maybe it was due to something else...Either way, I am sure they would be willing to help. I know the crew at gruppe-s pretty well, and I know they go above and beyond to help people out. Are they 100% perfect?? no...but they try pretty hard, and thats why IMHO, they are well liked by I-club members.
Anyway, you and I could go on and on, back and forth...bottom line is...Gruppe-s is aware if the issue, and I am sure, most of us here are glad you are ok and the situation wasnt worse than what it was. I hope this gets solved in a way that both parties are satisfied. Sad thing now is your going to get everyones opinions and comments...which just makes the whole thing more frustrating for both parties....
take care man...

Yeah man, I'm pretty sure 1WRX2NV knows where your coming from slow. Run a search on his name and Vishnu and you'll see what I mean. I think this is just one of those threads that IClub has all the time to make fun of a spree of other threads with similar titles. Just like if a bunch of "POLL: yadda yadda yadda" threads are made, someone will without fail post a "POLL: Insert corny joke here" thread. They're an iClub tradition.

Isnt it a good enough story that I did it with a midget? Why do I also have to be gay all of the sudden too?!?!
ummm... anyways Freddie, I think what Im trying to say is, sometimes its best to just keep somethings that happen to you to yourself, know what I mean?

LOL, oh dammit, I actually posted this on Fri night when i was drunk in the Gruppe-S RV at RIM, I was on Tommy laptop so I guess I did it on his login
So to clear his good name, Im the only notorious midget ****er around here.
