If they had my car that long (which they wouldn't of) I would take a day of work and go bloody get it.

ditto

As in the Rob that was/ is a partner?

Just an update from my dealings with Api. Left it for a diff, gearbox check and new clutch fitted. Got it back 5 weeks later and after running in the competition clutch still have a very notchy gearbox(worse than before) and deep rumble when setting of from standing still in 1,2 and not as noisy in 3rd. The other 2 gears make no noise at all. This wasn't happening before l took it in, more or less the opposite was happening, but only when in high revs and taking foot off the accelerator would a rumble occur.. Rang them yesterday and taking it back next Tuesday when hopefully it will get sorted, otherwise l'll be looking else where.:brickwall

Did you speak to someone yesterday? if so what number did you call? they have almost had my car for 6 months and I have been trying to contact them for a while now with limited success, also can some provide me with there new address as I have now accepted the fact I need to pay a visit :(

They called me on this number. 01926 839727.

The address l have is Marton Road, Long Itchington Warks. CV47 9PZ.

PM sent mudsplat2000.

My calls also not answered for nearly a month now.

I have sent a message and asked for money back for the engine I ordered for delivery end of November.

Credit card company are following up- very sad as its my rally car and all mechanics on it are from there, so will source another engine from elsewhere .

Wonder if he still has the special blue first sti pmsl

Technically they no longer exist do they ?

This was another classic thread too....

https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...david-api.html

He never did answer the question about the engine, first he said he fixed it and then later said he replaced it....lol...

Spoke to simon from api today. This is the new temp number as he says he has had issues with landline and this is the 4th number so far. 01926 839727.

Well next time he gets a new number get him to post it here to stop all the bloody whinging!!!!

Why don't you ring him and tell him yourself ? :p:p

I'm not silly enough to give my car to people and not know where they are or what they are doing to it :p

He also believed the mythological Type R RA existed..

Holding judgment at the moment with API, had my 2010 STI Saloon forged there in May which included a Competition stage 2 clutch which has let go after 2.5k? Ordered another from AS Performance so we'll see what clutch comes out of it next week? Cars running 403/420. could be just bad luck I suppose.

Forged with stage 2 Competition clutch in May which let go after 2.5K? Ordered new Extreme clutch and flywheel from AS Performance so will see what comes out of it next week. Could be just bad luck but first 1k was running in. Car's running 403/420

should have had it built by rotherham scoobies, hes a real engine expert.....

tim farmer lives in the norfolk area!great reputation!

Unfortunately after being unable to get hold of API I initiated a partial charge back. I didn't really want to but seeing as no one was even picking up the phone....

Agreed:thumb:

Hi,
Latest update - APi have definitely moved to the address above. My spies have visited even though I have not.
David O'Brien is no longer involved in the buisiness - confirmed by Simon Bryant
I have yet another phone number - 01926 839 727 which I have got through on a couple of times and to be fair I have had a couple of calls or calls back from Simon so perhaps things are returning to normal!


Still 11 weeks and counting is an awful long time even allowing for Christmas and a move to say nothing of a bill that is heading for 3 grand!

I've just collected mine today after 6 months.... but I can definitely say it was worth the wait, feels like a different car! Simon had explained the issues he's had and his new unit, looks like a bomb has hit it due to moving but since his phones have been up and running he's been on the ball with updates and information

Very good news. :thumb:

I had a problem with my clutch in my new build but Simon has got everything in order which I am very pleased with. My car does run great at 403bhp :-)
