Massive Brakes - Stay Away!

Why would you post this & not your perception of the events?

Just curious.

I have replied to Brendan to two of his first email within perhaps a few hours after he PM'd. He explained he sold to one of his customer (or in exchange for other parts or service) his old kit and his new hats and rotors. Then after a while HIS customer complained about vibration. Brendan clearly said he drove the car and felt no vibration at all and that everything was measured within specs, but that just to make his customer happy, I should give him free rotors...

I asked for more details as two rotors won't warp all together as a production deffect. Only one would be affected, or the whole batch of rotors would be bad ( and it never happened). Then he also wanted me to replace the pads. If rotors have warped, it is strictly because they have been abused. Am I supposed to send rotors just for that? What promise did Brendan give his customer about what the kit can do? There must be a reason why I offer different front and rear kits.

Basically, I never had any communication with the owner of the parts. Brendan behaved as if he was an approved distributor. When I asked for more details, then it took weeks to get them.

Sorry Brendan, I am not giving away rotors for free just to cover YOUR customer. Why hasn't the new owner of the kit never contacted me? And not by PM, but by email? In 8 years I only had two bad sets of rotors. The first one because the owner decided to abuse brand new rotors with race pads without even bedding the rotors in. The thermal shock was enough to warp the rotors. The owner understood his fault. The second set of "bad" rotors was with Kurzbimmer and the VW Corrado rotors. Both rotors cracked pretty bad and these were replaced by Racing Rotors.

Third occurence is YOUR customer. And your excuse that I shall give free discs on the sole premise that I should keep him happy whatever wrong he did with the brakes made me laugh. And I told you about.

BTW Interestingly, in this thread you haven't even considered asking others how could brake go wrong or even consider the driver's mistakes. No brake is undestructible. I make 15" kits with AP Racing calipers. And yes, discs can warp if you do a hot lap, pit in without cool down lap and keep the brakes on in the paddock with the rotors glowing red... Warp or cook bad deposits on the rotors

The new owner should contact me. Has he even considered this option?

Wut part did you miss

it was turned into a after school tV special. Brandon was played by Keauno Reeves (not from the matrix but from Bill & Teds) and Lee was played by Steve Erkel

boo. shame to see this fizzle out so quickly. lets chalk it up to fiddle being drunk and lee being a canuck.

Since when have you made an AP Racing kit?

[dinanm3atl]

Don't worry. Hundreds others love their Massive kits too. Only Brendan has a beef because I didn't give him free rotors to make him happy (his words).

Lee

I am not worried.

Don't worry. There's no drama here.

I like my UUC brakes. Love them.

Also love Levant and his little setup. Real happy with all the transactions there.


I am just here for the drama.

I am leaving for a baked lasagna. I was away for 10 days working on an advertizing campaign to help a friend and this is my first relaxed dinner in 10 days. Will probably watch SALT with Angie Joli.

Wanna leave this thread and get a cup of coffee?

Let the record show that I'm staying out of this.
