All I can say is GREAT GUY !!! got my car running and even did more work then we initially agreed on for the same price...he knows how ive been screwed by a few members on this board ..without a doubt my car will be going back to him for more work... THANKS HELDER !!!

Funny, you've been screwed by a few members, and now you go to a guy whose own friends admitted he has screwed several board members...and you consider HIM a good guy.

let me know who screwed you so that I can post good guy posts about THEM...

Jesus christ, enough Ziggy.

Can you please stop cluttering peoples threads. WE GET THE POINT!

The BOARD is being cluttered with LIES. Helder Dapont is NOT a good guy....

Like I said, I will quit when one of us is booted, and not before!

Well in some peoples opinions he is and some he's not, but I do think people have read everything you have had to say about him along with other people and they can make their own judgements.

I don't know, just my 2 cents.

Ziggy, we all understand you.

But isn't it always buyer beware? It is up to the buyer to research the seller and the item they are getting. There is more than enough information if someone searched this section for 'Helder Dapont'.

O,k this is retarded.

I think what Ziggy wants is a voting poll, to see who goes and who stays.

-Manuel

Agreed,,,,but any NEW good guy post is going to have the corresponding "bad guy" warning attached to it. You want me to quit? Quit posting "good guy" about a guy whose own friends admit he is wrong and is a crook!

I was agreeing to the post before. Manuel's post was not there when I typed this..

DO not post in my thread ... im well aware of the threads you have cluttered... keep your issues out of mine ...the man has gone out of his way on numerous occasions to help me what have you done for me ?? basically respect my thread and keep your bullshit out of it....

ohh and just to name names as to who has screwed me:

Jason Peterson - 92 1gb talon

Kyle Ventura - damaged 16g

Mike leclerc - unuseable 2g manifold

Jason and helder could be the same guy...similar styles...the other two ARE good guys...

no they arent ... and i have the shitty products to prove it ..and neither are willing to rectify the situation...do you see me crying about it and pissing on threads over it ...its time you let go of your issues as i have mine ...at the very least keep it off the forums everyone is sick and tired of hearing it ...your sounding like a nagging wife

Oh can we get some cheese to go with all your whine!!
Ziggy has every right to call a spade a spade. This is the appropriate forum for all his "reminders". It's because of this type of "character" that this forum was created. If the subject valued his own reputation he would've squared up with Zig and saved himself some embarrassment. Ziggy championed him for reinstatement and this is how he shows his gratitude? I for one applaud everytime Ziggy posts one of his "reminders". Carry on
Zigman!

nice to know your one of ziggys groupies...hows it feel suckling of his teat ? he has his own thread for this ive asked him politely to refrain from posting in mine... obviously he has some issues understanding the english language...

I understand ENGLISH...I don't understand INTERNET. See, I was already an adult when the internet happened, and this is a whole other set of rules to me. I THINK though the laws regarding free speech still apply..I hope so, enough Canadians and others laid down their lives for them..

And I don't have "groupies". You have me confused with Helder and some guys in southwestern Ontario I believe...

If I'm a groupie then you must be Helder's little suckhole ie. *bitch* . You have no right to ask anybody to politely or impolitely refrain from posting in your thread. You gave up that right when you agreed to the terms and conditions not to mention your dealings with the subject.

This is entertaining......

Can we go racing yet??

"She was just a groupie, she was just groupie"
Oh man snoop dog!!
Can we go racing yet??

Its that kind of attitude why nothing ever happens on this site...low turn outs on events who would want to be associated with people like you disgusting to say the least... ie ziggy and his cum guzzling wench paul

jokes...

No one is forcing you to be here?

There's no place for personal insults on this board, that goes for EVERYONE in here.


Elias,

If you don't like someone posting in your thread, then tell them that in a mature manner or report it to a moderator.

You're demonstrating a serious lack of maturity here, and you're probably not doing Helder's image any favours at this point.

Backing Jeff on this, as I told Aaron a while ago, this goes for EVERYONE:



Now, grow up people.

mods got to it

lets all smile

Mike, that is basically what I am trying to do...only since I don't know how to link to an old post, I just type freshly each time simply that he is NOT a good guy, and people should be careful. I really don't believe I have done wrong. If people want me to stop posting "bad guy", then they should just stop posting "good guy"...

and what was not polite in this message asking not to post in my thread ? instead i get attacked and informed that i have no rights to make such a request...did you even read the entire thread before posting a section of the code of conduct to toss at me ?

This is the problem with car guys, we're all kids at heart:) Can't we all just get along?

People got screwed, can we act like mature adults and put all the anger towards something useful (rather than go around in circles and choosing sides and what not)?

Maybe we could talk about cars or something...I'll start:

I like my car, it is shiny and I like the sound of the turbo spooling.

Good night!!!

apparently not as the trail of tainted threads are proof that some people can't....

I think you guys should settle this with a race.

Hey there buddy. That is the manifold I ran my 12.4 on, so it was probably OK. I also offered to buy it back from you. You never sent it back, so I never sent the money. Don't bad mouth me. I was straight up. I have a pretty good rep, and don't intentionally screw anyone. You weren't happy, and we arrived at a solution. YOU failed to follow through.

Oh, we are not done yet.

Here we go.

BTW, is that your bunny in the pic Mike?
Do you have a bigger pic?

what are you talking about ? i sent that hunk of junk back to you months ago and never heard from you...i have no record of a msg from you at all ...and it was not in proper working order the flange was warped even with 2 gaskets and sealant it would still leak ... maybe you could have ran a better time if it didnt leak..

If You have to get someone else to get your car running.
Obviously you don't know how to put on a manifold. Upside down maybe?
I was there when it was put on and raced, sealed fine.

See thats where your assumption is incorrect .. i dont have to get someone to do it i choose to do so ... i dont have time to waste on my hobby rather i pay to have work done...i use my time to make money and when someone offers a service at a rate thats less than my times worth its a good deal....jason peterson, luke sturgeon and myself could not make that manifold seal...

Not really a hobby then is it....
I know, I know, I'll stay out of it

sure it is ... i enjoy driving it when its finished lol... id love to have the time to work on my own car

lol search those names in good guy bad guy threads......Tells alot.

And if your time is worth so much, how aren't you driving a Lambo.

because feeding a family and owning a home are worth more to a man than having an over priced machine..

Jason Peterson and Luke Sturgeon? My thoughts exactly, LOL
Makes a lot more sense now. Helder's name BELONGS in with that group...

More confirmation of what my 85 year old mother taught me being accurate: Tell me who your friends are, and I will tell you WHAT you are...

"NO PARTS FOR YOU".....LOL

Kinda sad if you dont know what you are ....i only need myself to determine that ...

And you are as entitled to your opinion of what you and Helder are as I am of mine....and everyone else can make up their own minds

you needed your mother to tell you what you are ? figured a grown man would already know exactly what he is on his own

Seems YOU are the one with difficulty with the english language? My mother told me how to tell what SOMEONE ELSE is..by looking at who they chose as friends....

If I could break it down into TWO letter words, mabye your buddy Helder could help you decipher it...

Hey, how about getting Jay Peterson to post a good guy for helder...that would make my decade

I can't wait to get rid of my double wing scenario I gots goin on.

Us *disgusting* people have a pretty good idea of what you are but out of respect for the mods I'll refrain from sharing it.
The only thing missing from your original post was a set of pom poms, skirt and pair of bobby sox. Oh I forgot to mention lipstick. Keep some some lube handy in your glovebox because when it's your turn you'll be glad you were prepared.

Just curious Ziggy,

I respect you and all but is this too much?

I think we all know how you feel about the situation.

Damn, I thought I had beef with people....
I wonder if you'll stop dealing with me cause I know Helder.

nope..not too much. Right is right, wrong is wrong...and should not be forgotten. I am not posting fresh "bad guy" threads...just jumping in to make "corrections" or "warning", however you want to look at it, when people are posting "good guy" threads about a crook.

Did you guys not know that squareheads were stubborn? You should be thankful you have never seen me angry, LOL.

No, I am not refusing to deal with acquaintances of Helder...just his "groupies"..

I don't have an opinion either way as I've only dealt with Helder once for a $20 item. Which there was no problems, and he even sent me the part without paying first. So that experience is minimal but I will take into consideration what all have said about him.

I also don't think Ziggy is out of line, imagine how many people may have not bothered to post if they had a bad dealing with helder, becuase its to much effort. Also the same might be said if people have had good dealings with him.

Either way I support Ziggy having the balls to say something, even if it is again and again, rather then keeping a closed mouth about it.

There's too many people without the balls to say anything these days.

Enough said right there.

here here. I only posted once about my dealings with helder. Frustrated me enough I can't even think about posting again with out getting pissed off.

I would personally stay the hell away from him.

Jay, I belive your driving my old talon, Toyota blue, with black roof? sold it to him for practically nothing...

Making the guy famous. We should just create a "Helder Dapont" forum and be done with it.

driving is an overstatement right now. FYI good luck finding a tranny this time of the year. =] If I can get one by march she will be out and this year.

York Uni, As soon as the snow melts. Everyone throw down on the track!!

Im done with this thread youve tainted it to the point where its lost all meaning .... seriously if what he owes you is really worth while then you should take legal action...with that said continue to blast the man all you want i for one hope he doesnt ever pay you....old men should grow up rather than waste time arguing with 20 year olds over the internet...

Wow, Can we say this site has turned into big time drama!. HAHA. I was at a pre-school today and there was less arguing.

If i remember correctly, I was told NUMOURS TIMES on the board to act according and act my age. Well everyone here isn't doing that. I mean I'm keeping out of the mess because I'd make a couple of people here cry.

Thanks for the entertainment. Keep it up!

This particular section of the board is meant exactly for the types of warnings that are provided about people, including when they are in response to other member's topics, so think twice before you comment on someone "tainting" your thread or claim that someone is "whining" in the appropriate section of the board. You are entitled to disagree with their input, but try to keep your responses civil and mature and try to avoid wise-guy comments that are written spitefully.

It's anyone's choice as to whether or not they want to take advice seriously, if at all. Helder might do great things for some people but, as can be seen from several people in this thread alone, he is no Knight in shining armour. At least the Knights had honor and deserved their respect. In my opinion, neither is true for Helder based on the numerous negative transactions he has made with people on this board. Helder has certainly done nice things for some people from what I've read, but I don't think that outweighs the fact that he's done some extremely shady things as well. You can disagree with that all you want, but rest assured that we will be letting the community know to be careful.

Speaking of respect, what gives anyone the right to blast Ziggy for being German and linking him to Hitler? Why should anyone have to resort to name-calling or other such childish practices? In case you don't understand, those are rhetorical questions and don't require an answer. You might disagree with someone and/or their opinions, but seriously, when you resort to such tactics, the only person you're making look stupid is yourself.

I stand with Ziggy on this subject, not as a "follower" or "groupie", but as a fellow community member that has experienced Helder's dealings first-hand. Helder was given the opportunity to set things right with both of us and has laughed about it constantly since, which gives us every right to tell people to watch out. We're not asking for our money back and we're not hoping for miracles. We're just watching out for all the members of this community; the same people we consider to be our "friends", including those that we have yet to meet face to face and those that we've never talked to before. Friends don't treat each other like crap or take their money and run. Friends watch out for one another.

*sniff, sniff*

That........ was........ BEAUTIFUL....... *sniff, sniff*

Are you my friend Gates?

Of course, Ryan! Just don't tell the wifey about my "benefits", kay?

A few days late on this one but just thought I'd stick up for myself this is pertaining to Elias saying that I sold him a bad turbo.
This guy sent me a pm 7 MONTHS after the purchase saying the turbo I sold him was bad.Before you start saying I screwed you over think if things were the other way around , what would you say to me? I would never sell someone a piece of junk. Like I told you before, if you had any complaints within a few weeks of buying that turbo off me I would of galdly given your money back. I'd be embarrassed if I were you even mentioning this. And to ziggy thanks for the good guy. I haven't had any problems with anyone on this board and the guys that know me know I'm a stand up guy.

^
FYI, you should start a new good/bad guy thread

agreed this thread is going on and on...

Kyle and Mike..for what it's worth..I think once it was figured out that this guys buddy list includes Jay Peterson and Helder Dapont, his comments are really meaningless anyways...I think the GOOD guys on this board know you can be trusted.

Its funny, I searched jay peterson and luke sturgeon.
Theres a post that goes on and on about how luke was screwed by him blah blah..
But now there together helping put a manifold on?
bahah

This is true, I believe I've even left Kyle his own GG review. Kyle has been a client of mine for nearly a year now without the slightest issue.

Cheers, that's all I have to contribute.

Ya, this Elias lists Jay Peterson as one of the guys who screwed him, but also as one of the guys who couldn't get the manifold on, LOL. So I guess he still trusts guys who screw him..

This thread is quickly catching up to Waldo's thread LMAO
