Default Wat ever happened to VIET LAM/H22 eg??

He was one of the big boys in the late 90's. i think he started the h22 swap before stephan papadakis did. i might be wrong on that, but i had heard he was arrested at a event for a stolen motor and was gonna make a comeback. Wow the stolen motor dayz. lol

I quite possibly could be wrong but wasn't that John Hoang's old coupe? Viet just did the work on it.

He's a damn crook dont do business with that jerkoff. He screwed me on my H22 swap. And his old school civic i remember he sold it cause it wouldnt go straight down the track because of the frame, thats what i heard from on of his pro import mechanic awhile ago.

Correct me if I'm wrong please but I heard that Viet's hatch was his girl friend's car and was on lease when he back halved it. Is there any truth to that rumor?

when he has his shop in portland i went to it a couple times never realy bought anything big. he has some old school pics of his EG in the shop. I think it went out of business last year. I haven't heard anything about the shop in a long time.

Jaden Motorsports in Vancouver BC or Vancouver Washington? i have heard of that place before.

who cares if he was still paying for it or not. if my loan company would have seen what i did to my crx when i was still paying for it. they would prolly have never loaned me any money ever again.
