Brendon ran GAupgrades.net but the growing problems with his car and the presence of a female drove him away from the enthusiast arena and therefore no longer had time to maintain gaupgrades.net. He let a guy from GMPower take over it....

Yes, I am no longer Mr. GAUpgrade man

Lost my FTP access for a few months... got wayyyy behind on the site... got real busy... got rid of it. Hah

Check it out, this is from the front page of GAUpgrades:
"Ok I need to vent because some people don't know how to look through my website to find what they are looking for. A lot of people think i'm selling these products. The Answer is NO I don't sell any thing on my site."

He's only had it for a few months and the e-mails are ALREADY starting to get to him. I can't tell you how many dip ****s e-mailed me asking how to buy stuff from my store... LOL. Man, I really don't miss that.

is it just a basic web page that you updated, or was it a database that you used?

It didn't have anything to do with that site....He was selling a set of H&R's he said were "never installed".....So I paid $170 for 'em thinking they were new....When I got them they were all rusted up and looked like complete crap!

I e-mail him and he's like...."They were never installed on MY car. I bought them used from someone else"....Focker made them sound brand new....then sold me these rusted out pieces of crap at TOP DOLLAR!!!!!!

Hey, the new "owner" of the site is CyberRad...you know, the guy who parted out his GA and wanted to sell it because he hat a temper tantrum over it. And then he was rude, and a smart@ss in his selling thread here.

I think it is time someone else took it over. I'd do it if I knew how to maintain all that webstuff. Anyway we can have a coupe` to get someone else running it

haha. That's why when I put up AleroUpgrades at the top of every page I state that I do NOT sell any of the parts. In the 3 1/2 months it's been up I've only had one email about buying parts.

Also for you EcoTec guys, I have an Ecotec parts section on mine also.

I get people sending me emails asking where they can order stuff on my site (the stuff pictured on my site (in the Mods section) ). Some I don't even bother to reply. If you can't figure it out to begin with, I'm not going to bother to reply.

whats the trouble to just write a sentance back answering their question? i mean, im sure you get 500 emails a day, but all of those emails will satisfy those 500 people that needed an answer, and ur gonna ignore them?
