They can air freight it but it would cost a arm and a leg so I suspect your correct in saying it will come by sea container. Anyways should only take like 2 to 3 weeks from now inless Ben has already organised for it to be shipped an its already on its way which I really hope it is. Cant wait to drag head to head with another 34 :)

I got mine off eBay.

Sits in the exact same place on a GT as it does on a GTT, they fit straight up. You have to cut the dash where it sits, but the NA still has the brackets for it to be screwed on. NA's and GTT's have the exact same dash, just different trim. Have been wanting to do it for awhile, KYP doing it professionally is a bonus! lol

Ok well everything is packed up in the car waiting to be taken in. Just waiting on that call... When i spoke to Ben last week Monday he said it would be either last week or this week, so it should definitely be going in this week some time. Can't wait!!!

*sigh* i'm getting tired of waiting, i want my car back :( This is getting annoying, i feel like i am just getting bumped further and further back in the pecking order. When i first contacted them they said they should be able to do it mid-April. Then it was late-april. Then it was start of May. Then i didn't hear from them for ages, they just left me hanging with "we will call you in a couple of weeks to book you in". Then i got a bit tired of waiting and emailed them and they said probably won't be able to fit me in until mid-june, again left me hanging with we will give you a call... Now it is a third the way through June and they still haven't called :(

What would you guys do if you were in my shoes? I really need my car back, it is actually getting to the point where i might not be able to do this anymore because of building the new house, if i don't get this done then mum will tell me to forget about it and she won't loan me the money anymore. But the thing is i don't want to annoy KYP. I've seen Ben get angry at a customer before and i don't want him to be angry with me before i give him my car to do a major conversion like this. What do you think i should do?

Go grab the damn car, give it to JPC ossy park if you still want a workshop to do it. Danny won't fuck you around.

The thing is if i take it to any other workshop, first i don't know if they will be able to fit me in anytime soon anyway, secondly they don't really know me at all and i don't really know them or who i am dealing with, third i would have to fill them in on the details of what i want done and everything, get quotes on how much it will cost... I will basically be starting again, it would probably take weeks to organize.

It MAY be worth it if KYP keep bumping me back, but i really have no idea what they are doing.

Fair enough. All I'm saying, is that Danny won't take anyone's job unless its booked in. They deal with importing half cuts and shiz, so they know what they're doing :thumbsup: .

Phone call away :P
