Protege Garage Closing Down

[Nutari]

your item was out of stock if i recall. our account with that supplier remains active until the end of the month, if we cant get it by then a refund will certainly be in order.

K thanks Ken!

So.. we can still pm you guys for hookups right?

 

[TStar]

Hey Ken,

I've sent you 2 PMs regarding the reciept for both my header and REV wheels, also the missing manifold gasket, I just came back from Conneticut and I couldn't install the header (missing manifold gasket), nor could I bring it across the border cuz I didn't have the receipt for it! Kinda wasted my time travelling all the way down to Conneticut, but oh well. Please get back to me on these issues!

Thanks!

you reuse the stock manifold gasket when you install a header, unless this one is different than any other header or turbo manifold ive seen.

 

[changedman]

^ Agreed.

 

[Matthew]

actually, correction. its gaskets. about 3 of them IIRC. use copper gasket spray on them when you install.

 

[Auzzie_Mp3]

damn man that sucks, sorry to hear, ive been gone for a couple days off the forums and i find out that my number one place to shop for my protege has left. oh well, just glad was apart of one of your products i bought. good luck man

PeaCE,
alex

Thanks for everything. But I'm sure you guys will be much more relaxed now without all the annoying downfalls of an internet business.(ex. people demanding their stuff every five seconds)

I bought the exhaust gasket (the one that attaches to the mid-pipe) from my mazda dealer, but didn't buy the manifold one cuz it was supposed to come with the header. I don't know.. but I like doing things the right way the first time around.

It's not a big deal. Use the stock manifold gasket. You only really need to replace it if it gets damaged when you remove the stock manifold. Don't lose sleep over this.

Hey Jo Jo! I'm not trying to say it was a big deal homie, the fact of the matter is, I wasn't really planning on installing the header in Conneticut, considering I didn't have access to a garage, and I'd have to do the install on the street (no driveway either) Its just that if it came with the manifold gasket and the receipt, then I wouldn't have a problem bringing it back to Canada with me! Get it!? Got it!?... Good!!

Reciept for what reason?! I brought back 2 of them when I went to Chicago and met up with Ken. I threw them in my car and drove home. Never once did they ask at the boarder. When they asked me if I had anything to declare, I told them I bought some smokes and booze at the Duty Free, and off I went, no questions. I had Ken write on the boxes though in marker $99 USD just in case, but never needed it.

Well, your situation is a little different than mine. My cousin had to bring back 2 sets of springs, alignment kits, and some other goodies for his ride, plus we both went shopping while we were in the States, so our total costs of goods were a little more than what we were allowed to bring back with us. And if we didn't have the receipts for everything we bought, we would've had to pay taxes on their "book value" (which we all know is ridiculously overpriced). We only had to pay taxes on $155 USD, so hence the need for receipts.
