BUT on the other side, if all of us CAR OWNERS are so knowledgable about cars, why do u walk into their shops? y buy from them? y ask them about this spec la, that spec la, then what the difference la, whats the price la....etc etc.... buy la direct from japan, courier service is so convenient nowadays... just pay duty....
ppl open shop for business - to make $$$$$$$!!!!!!
u sometimes cant blame these shop owners for not entertaining your questions because there are too many "smart" car owners out there who are smarter than the mechanic - dont believe? read through all the forums pertaining technical issues, we have forumers who knows much much more than any of these shop owners......
for me, dont have to complaint, if u dislike a shop, just dont walk in, u can get ur parts elsewhere..... but YES!! we feel happy satisfied when we let go what is inside our heart........ so keep more complaints coming.....
this is just my personal opinion - you guys can shoot me if u like ok.... to me, there are 2 sides for everything/incident, just depends on which angle u see it from.....
driftagster...
the arena of cars here in malaysia is quite large, but the people who's doing this business is not, yes i can say i agrree with u as well, as u mention y walk into their shop if we are not satisfied, then, we go previously/before because of the choices they have there...look at this, KSP started less than two years ago, they still have not much choices and dealersrship/distributor. Amoil started quite a while ago, but more on Honda/Mugen/Spoon parts. Other u have to make up ur mind n then only they could order for u. but for N1 they have been in the scene for quite sometime, they have evrything, from performance to apperance. doesnt mean that they are funded by some sleeping partner and shipping their parts to singapore makes then to me LCLY, arrogant or can do shitty things to us, local consumers..
have u read the thread starter of this, he went to do something else, they did sometime extra for him and he got back in worse condition..LOL...u understand..?
there's a lot of people boycotting NI not KSP...dont be mistaken, i always get nice treatment in KSP. i dun mind paying a little extra, its the kindness u receive from them, rather that the 'F' face the get in return from N1..
If u were to ask ask a normal walk in customers from N1 compared to KSP and the rest, u'll know why...
If u wanna make money, thats' fine, all workshop.acces ctr wanna make money, but make it in a well manner way..make it with pride, u sleep better and not letting people like me condemming them..!!
Lots of ppl, including MEOC havew boycotted them if i'm not mistaken (from a trusty source)...
so, in end..u have to really souce out ur info in hand...enuff said bout them..
bdin - LCLY - short form of belagak in chinese ( Lan C Lan Yeong)
- DMT - performance shop, opposite sunway foodcourt.
- KSP - accesories sales shop, row of shophouses before stupid N1..
they really look down on ppl, i suggest not to go, sakit hati only.... :)
cheers'
