I know there's a thread on them talking all about them in the FAQ. However, the point of my thread is to ask if anyone made a recent purchase from forbidden motorsports, I bought a short shifter for my CD5 about a week ago and I still haven't gotten the shifter let alone a tracking number. I tried contacting the email they gave but I still haven't gotten a reply. Anyone know how I can possibly contact them?

 

Well,

1) He has a user name on here (4bidden)
2) It took ~2.5 weeks for me to get mine (he builds them from scratch then sends them to get powdercoated

So no, it probably hasn't shipped yet. It's only a week dude. No reason to flip out. You realize there's people that have been waiting 2 years to get a RMF header? (probably won't happen at this point but they spent MAJOR bucks as opposed to the $$ you just spent)

 

Oh, ok. Thanks for reassuring me.

 

It's all good.

If you're that concerned shoot him a PM on here, he was a great guy and talked to me about them for a bit.

 

I was only worried because they didn't reply to my email, and the account here on h-t has been inactive for quite some time. But it's ok now, I'll wait.

 

I've been waiting over 2 1/2 months. Jeremy responded to ONE of my many emails and pms to say that he was still in business and to not file a claim against his Paypal acct.
The money was taken from the acct. and it was emptied out so I can't get a refund through Paypal. Jeremy continues not to answer my requests. I have seen on other forums that people have frequent problems getting responses. I've tried to contact him through 3 of his various websites - 4bidden, his webpage development service, another of his websites and pms through 2 forums. The one response is the only one I got and since then - nothing. Good luck.

 

I ordered my shifter from him on december 29th and emailed him twice with no reply. I just hope eventually I will get my shifter as well. I dont understand how You can't take two seconds to let your customers know whats going on but i'm patient.

 

shouldn't these things be mass produced by now? i'm surprised to other company makes these. a few months with no reply sounds way too long to me.

 

Forbidden and PSPEC shifters are made by one person, hand welded then sent to a powdercoated to get powdercoated. It is not a Taiwanese POS shifter.

 

yes i know that. i'm just surprised because i assumed there was a bigger demand and tuner companies would start selling them.

 

anyone care to post a picture of their Forbidden short shifter ... all i've seen out there are adapters =/

 

I have an "installed" pic too. It's a decent upgrade over stock.

 

steel (like stock)
or aluminum?

 

It's a heavy shifter, I'd wager steel.
