SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Well.. I paypaled him $940 almost 2 months ago (October 25th to be exact) for a turbo kit he is supposidly piecing together for me. I have yet to receive anything from him and he keeps making excuses why the kit isn't finished yet (hasn't had time to get in his "shop", etc).

He first had promised that it would be done in 2-3 weeks. He kept putting me off.. Most recently (early December), he had promised it be at my house December 14th. Not surprisingly, I haven't gotten anything.

He is VERY difficult to communicate with, as he is not responding my emails (i've sent him two since Friday), and since his computer keeps freezing when I talk to him on AIM. Does anyone know Nathan (aka SSL2K) and does he keep his word? I don't want to get scammed, and I don't think Nathan would scam anyone because he seems like a real nice guy, but it sure seems like he's ------- me over. I just want my kit, or my money back...


Nathan, if you are reading this: please get my kit done. You have priorities that you need to fulfill. Either send my kit, or send me my money back so I can buy from somewhere else.

This is getting ridiculous...

I don't think he will rip you off. He knows how that feels. :P

Nathan is too ------- stupid to rip you off.

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Yes they will but he would have to file a dispute.

Cray91 12-19-2004 05:49 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
If it is over 30 days old them Paypal won't do anything.

I know him though. He has been busy trying to get a car running for himself, let alone making a turbo kit.

when I last saw him he did mention that he needed to get a kit done, that was late.

I would trust him though, he is a good guy.

After 60 days? I thought you had to do it within 30 days?

ssl2k is a good guy, i'll contact him about this if you don't get to him first.

vsm98civic 12-19-2004 06:10 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Thanks for the re-assurance guys. He's a nice guy, just that he isn't responding to my emails and wanted to be absolutely positive that he's legit.

I do know of another guy on hmt that has been waiting 3 months for his kit and hasn't received anything yet, either.

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
for starters, it'd be hard to piece together a *complete kit for $950. if he is he's not making anymoney off it. i wouldn't worry about it though. ssl2k is not far from stealthmode, so i think he'd regulate for you.

vsm98civic 12-19-2004 06:15 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
it's a complete kit minus fuel mangement, which I have already bought 6 weeks ago in anticipation for my kit. he mentioned to me that he makes a few hundred by making these kits for people. I'm assuming he's making his money through welding the manifold and making the pipes, rather than buying them from somewhere else.

Spenser 12-19-2004 06:22 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
like I said Nathan is too stupid to steal from you, and I"m in utter disbelief that he actually makes the kits, I"m pretty sure all he will do is give you a Hf manifold, adapter plate, used chrysler turbo, a probe I/c, and throw in some used mandrel bends.

stillnoturbo 12-19-2004 07:08 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
I know Nate and talk to him on a daily basis if not seeing him on a daily basis. Trust me he's not gonna rip you off. I'm gonna see him tomorrow and he's slept on my couch for christ sakes. I wouldn't let him work in my garage when I'm wasn't home if I didn't trust him. One thing I have to say is that he needs a new cell phone cause that thing blows and he's on dialup and his computer sucks not to mention he lives up in the backwoods of WI in a shack smaller then the unibomber. He's a good kid. Plus he owes me 22 bucks too for two turbo's I sold him for kits he making ;).

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
I bought a set of rods off of him for $200 3 1/3 weeks ago, He got the money and said they were gonna go out, havent heard form him in 11 days now

Did he die or something?

Thank you for understanding my point of view!

Nate's a good kid, and I'm sure he means well... but he's got priorities...

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Trust me I know he's building these kits cause he bought like 40 mandrel bends the other day to make more manifolds and I saw your manifold and it is quite sexy. I tried calling him but nothing but I'll see him tomorrow and bust that ni66az head in and tell him to get his shizznit together.

would appreciate if you could mention the eagle rods he pulled out of stealthmodes block

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
his g/f prolly dumped him again and it usually takes him about 2 months to stop crying and come out of his room, so if another month goes by then i would worry

MikeJ-2009 12-19-2004 11:00 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Me and Cray went to his house about a week or so ago, because Cray bought my old motor back from him. He did have the rods in a box in his trunk (looked like they were ready to ship) and he had alot of mandrel bends, about 3 turbo's, and a really nice log manifold he made.
I'm not sure what the problem is with getting all of his ---- taken care of, but it ain't no thang for me to roll up there and "handle bitnezz" if needed. I think he's just lagging though.
I'm in Ca. right now, and I think I'm going back home either Christmas day or new years day. I will call him if I need to then.

Cray- you have his number, give him a call and try to find out whats going on. And you just paypaled him for that motor, so if you wanted to be funny you could punk that ---- back and let him know how it feels.

Nathans a good guy, he may just need some encouragement soon. :D

stillnoturbo 12-20-2004 09:04 AM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Yeah he's just a lagging sob. His crx sat in my garage for 2 weeks and he lives 4 hours from me until I told him I was gonna have it towwed if he get his ass down here by 10am about a week ago. He was pissed but he knew I meant business and that meant for him he'd have to leave his house at 5:30-6am to get here. Yeah. He was one minute early but he was here and then we were cool again. I'll try giving him a call again and tell him to get his ass in gear so I don't have to back his ass up cause I know he's a good kid. This kid has more turbo kits deals going on than ssauto has on ebay :P

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
one reason y nathan is hard to get a hold of right now is because his hard-drive crashed so he hasn't been able to get onto a computer but he finally got a hard-drive yesterday from my dad.plus, his dad may be disconnecting his cell phone but he'll be getting a new one from alltel instead of gay ass cellularone.i talk to the kid everyday so i'll talk to him about what is going on with all of these projects.

good thing im not in a hurry... :-\

vsm98civic 12-20-2004 10:24 AM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
please, if anyone knows him give him a call and ask him if he has shipped my stuff yet. (name is Hunter, i'm the one in North Carolina) and if not im going to hunt him down :P

Cray91 12-20-2004 10:49 AM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
You won't get him online probably. His computer crapped out, so I just call him when I need to talk to him. When i talk to him next I will ask him if he want's me to give you his number.

stillnoturbo 12-20-2004 10:52 AM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
he's on now and his puter is work for the time being so PM that sucka but I just talked to him on the phone and don't fret my pet he's on that ---- like a fly with your kit.

vsm98civic 12-21-2004 12:34 PM

Re:SSL2k - anyone know him?
 
Update: Nathan hasn't made my manifold yet. He says he's going to outsource and buy from BMC (i think from Shitbird on here??). Which is OK with me, because I've seen his welds and they are amazing. He still has to make the downpipe and one intercooler pipe, and it should be done (according to him).

I'm getting impatient. >:(

Be patient???? Seriously?? It's been 2 months to get me something that he said would take 2-3 weeks. Let me sell you something of mine and wait 2 months to send it to you... I bet you'd be pretty aggrevated and impatient.
