ok, so for those of you that ordered the Poly bushings. its been almost 21 days ( 3 weeks) did it take that long to get to states.. ?
He states he shipped, which i do believe, but no tracking, so i dont know where the package is, i even went to post office.... So should i give it a couple more days, or should i continue with the ebay case? its only 300 bucks...

mine didnt take that long, berto.
IIRC it was right around 2-2.5 weeks from when i paid to when i recieved them. ::edit:: just looked thru my records. it took 12 days from when i paid for them to arrive. why no tracking? he shipped mine thru usps, it had a basic tracking # that told me when they hit customs, ect. they very well could be held up in customs, tho, ive had stuff sit a month in customs, then show up out of the blue...i very highly doubt he didnt send them, more than likely they are in customs, or were lost in shipping. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

i dont get it man, dustin has ordered a couple sets from him, with no issue. i had no issues as well, i dont understand why your having an issue..i really hope things work out for the best, they really are a huge improvement over the stock bushings.
worse case, if you end up getting your money back, you could try getting them thru red rocket over on celicatech. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

probably the shipment did get lost, and the solution offered, its not great for me. Why cant he provide me any tracking? Or maybe i cant get through him with my english.. IDK, im getting frustrated. He has 100% feedback, i hate to leave him some negative comments. Ive been patient so far. but getting close to 4 weeks, and thats unacceptable.

I was making a humorous allusion to Fast and Furious, but why do the bushings need to come from Poland? What bushings are they?

Im certain he is referring to these.http://www.ebay.com/itm/141042645665?ssPag...984.m1423.l2649 and these http://www.ebay.com/itm/141042644471?ssPag...984.m1423.l2649 am i correct? @Bitter, they are a polyurethane upgrade from the OEM rubber bushings for the suspension. I've heard they are a fantastic way to renew said suspension and give it a better feel on the road over OEM. From what i've looked up gt4goodies is one of the only people ive seen that makes them and just so happens they are located in poland. With that being said, has anyone tried their sway bar links at all? This post has been edited by cyberblader1130: Sep 16, 2013 - 11:33 AM |

Because the guy in Poland is the only one who makes them
 I also bought from him and things have gone well. sucks that your deal isn't panning out  wished we could get these made domestically. |

get the dimension specs and shore harness used (could even go more rigid) and pour your own mold or get them made. there are a bunch of places thatll do custom molds.
BUT. mine came in about 2.5 weeks. I didnt have tracking I dont think. I was in constant communication with Paul before and after i ordered and there was never more than a 2 day delay with his responses --------------------  1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

Maybe they've already arrived, but Domo ate them thinking they were gummy candies.
