Whats going on with this?

In this thread, in the vendors section....

http://www.vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=2184

it looks like he had a great product, the thread has 5 pages of interested posters, then May 31, 06 no more posts, by him on the thread.  If I'm searching the forum right he hasn't posted on this forum since Aug 22, 06.

Moderators placed the following in his thread...

edited by vwdiesel.net moderator 2007-05-29: This vendor is currently inactive so you may not be able to purchase turbo rebuild kits from him. Browse posts inside this thread to find alternative sources for turbo rebuild kits.


So now he build a website trying to sell the rebuild kits?  Seems like he would reactivate his thread, start replying to interested parties, and he could have lots of business.  

I'm planning on rebuilding my turbo soon and think this 360 thrust would be the way to go.

Was there some negative feed-back
on these kits/service or something?

Otherwise, I'd still be interested in buying
one or two.

Tyler (burn your money)
told me that Giles can get those kits at his shop! but has a different theory about  using the 360* bearing? you would have to ask Gile's what that is?
