Angry 2JZ NA-T Thief found

I've had enough waiting. Some guy messages me on Aol Instant Messenger asking for my advice on NA-T. After learning that he is on a budget and can't afford to pay a reputable shop and that he resides in Austin, Texas (attends UT.edu), I recommend him to Gamimnon (from supraforums) for NA-T work. He then later confesses he is the guy that broke into Gamimnon's car and STOLE HIS PARTS! He also damaged gamimnon's car (dents, scratches, and god knows what else) and this damage will be longlasting unless this THIEF pays Gamimnon for the damages. So, we came to an agreement that this thief would PAY Gamimnon back. It's been SEVERAL weeks and no word.. he hasn't even called Gamimnon. I forgot his clubna-t and clublexus username, but I asked SF mods to forward his IP to the CLUBNA-T and CLUBLEXUS administrators so we can find his name and ban him permanently. His SupraForums username is x95SupraNAx.

Here is the proof:

[05:04] J: sup man
[05:04] x 2JZ SuPrA x: hey bro whats up
[05:04] *** Auto-response sent to x 2JZ SuPrA x: I am currently away from the computer.
[05:04] J: just woke up...5:04am in texas :-P
[05:04] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yup im in austin :-d
[05:05] J: u got any questions for me?
[05:05] J: na-t install related?
[05:05] x 2JZ SuPrA x: well....i briefly looked over some write ups and it looks to damn complicated for me
[05:05] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and i dont even have an engine lift
[05:05] x 2JZ SuPrA x: so im probably just gonna have it done at a shop
[05:05] J: you don't need an engine lift to do the na-t install or remove the oil pan
[05:06] x 2JZ SuPrA x: hmm
[05:06] x 2JZ SuPrA x: dont you have to drill a hole in the block or some****
[05:06] J: lol, not in the block :-P
[05:06] x 2JZ SuPrA x: lol where at
[05:06] J: u want to go na-t for a supra right?
[05:06] J: lower oil pan is where u drill the hole
[05:06] x 2JZ SuPrA x: ic
[05:06] x 2JZ SuPrA x: so how hard do you think it is
[05:06] x 2JZ SuPrA x: to do for a person with NO motor experience what so ever
[05:07] J: hmm..
[05:07] x 2JZ SuPrA x: besides changing oil and spark plugs
[05:07] x 2JZ SuPrA x: lol
[05:07] J: if u can change oil and spark plugs, you can do the na-t install...but i need to know what u plan on doing to give u a better recommendation
[05:07] J: will u upgrade your headgasket or not?
[05:07] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yep
[05:07] J: ok..so ur going all out
[05:08] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yupp
[05:08] x 2JZ SuPrA x: gonna eventually do a 6spd swap so i can get more power
[05:08] J: here is the kicker..can you do it? Yes, but it will take considerably longer and might cost you more than you think since you'll have to buy all your own tools.
[05:08] x 2JZ SuPrA x: well ****
[05:08] J: i know the PERFECT guy in Austin that will convert your car to na-t for dirt cheap
[05:08] x 2JZ SuPrA x: lol well i need tools anyways
[05:08] x 2JZ SuPrA x: name?
[05:09] J: Ryan Parker
[05:09] x 2JZ SuPrA x: ah yes i know him
[05:09] x 2JZ SuPrA x: UT guy
[05:09] J: lol
[05:09] x 2JZ SuPrA x: red aupra correct?
[05:09] x 2JZ SuPrA x: supra*
[05:09] J: yea, he really knows his **** and has worked on my car before..yes red supra. he works for Boost Logic. were you going to have him do it if you chose that route?
[05:09] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i was supposed to buy his old na-t kit from him awhile back but didnt have the funds :-(
[05:10] x 2JZ SuPrA x: nah theres a new shop thats litterally right down the street from my house....
[05:10] x 2JZ SuPrA x: they said theyd do it for $1300
[05:10] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and install ALL electronics
[05:10] x 2JZ SuPrA x: so i could jsut walk there to check it out
[05:10] J: ryan will give u a better deal. tell him "dejacky" sent you.
[05:10] x 2JZ SuPrA x: dont know if thats a good price or not
[05:11] J: well my immediate concern is that it's a new shop..they could be really crappy at what they do. Ryan has been in the game a long time and has done MANY na-t conversions with 100% satisfied custoemrs
[05:11] x 2JZ SuPrA x: nah these guys know what theyre doing...the guy used to work at Sideways sounds if u know wat that is
[05:12] J: no idea what that is
[05:12] J: btw, what is the name of the shop/
[05:12] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and ive seen EVO's and STi's in tehre and alot of ****
[05:12] J: ?
[05:12] x 2JZ SuPrA x: ****
[05:12] x 2JZ SuPrA x: forgot
[05:12] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i can get the name for u tmr
[05:12] J: well i'll tell u this much. i wouldn't trust my car to ANY shop now matter how much evo, sti, honda, or nissan experience they have. i only let someone experienced in 2jz- na-t touch my car.
[05:12] J: i learned this the hard way...
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: performance motors is what i think it is
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yeh
[05:13] J: have u talked to Ryan before/
[05:13] J: ?
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yeh
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: nice guy
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: rode in his car too when was testing out his old na-t kit
[05:13] J: just curious why u don't want to go with him? he will give u a better price and better quality worksmanship.
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: ok ok
[05:13] x 2JZ SuPrA x: truth is
[05:14] x 2JZ SuPrA x: boost logic got broken into...and the only car that got broken into was ryans
[05:14] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and for some reason someone said my name
[05:14] x 2JZ SuPrA x: so..we're not on good grounds
[05:14] J: hoooly ****. you're the guy that busted into Ryan's car??!
[05:14] x 2JZ SuPrA x: heh
[05:14] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yeh
[05:14] x 2JZ SuPrA x: <guily>

[05:14] J: lol
[05:15] x 2JZ SuPrA x: trying to save money actually to pay him back
[05:15] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i feel terrible
[05:15] x 2JZ SuPrA x: dunno if u wanna help me or not now..:-(
[05:15] J: well you already have enough money to go NA-T, so you have enough money to pay him back. wanting to do the right thing is not the same as actually doing the right thing.
[05:15] x 2JZ SuPrA x: tru man
[05:16] x 2JZ SuPrA x: wont have enough money for awhile..blew all my money on the na-t kit and coilovers n ****..
[05:16] x 2JZ SuPrA x: dont know how else to repay him besides cash
[05:16] J are u kidding me?
[05:16] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and ofcorse pay to have his car fixed
[05:17] J: sell your na-t kit and coilovers, Ryan didn't deserve that and you obviously have the means to do it. Please pay him back.
[05:17] x 2JZ SuPrA x: your right
[05:17] x 2JZ SuPrA x: know anybody that wants an NA-T kit
[05:18] J: once you sell everything and pay him back, I will help you with a super budget custom na-t kit that will be the same quality as all the best kits out there for like 1/8th the cost.
[05:18] J: yes, i know plenty of people that want an na-t kit.
[05:18] J: post it on supraforums.com
[05:18] x 2JZ SuPrA x: alrighty
[05:18] x 2JZ SuPrA x: how much do you think would be sufficient
[05:18] x 2JZ SuPrA x: to pay him
[05:19] J: that is between you and Ryan since i have no idea of the cost of damages.
[05:19] x 2JZ SuPrA x: alright, would you happen to have his #
[05:19] J: yep..one sec
[05:19] x 2JZ SuPrA x: thx
[05:20] J: 512 xxx xxxx edited by Dejacky
[05:21] x 2JZ SuPrA x: alrighty
[05:21] x 2JZ SuPrA x: got it
[05:21] J: you know, you will gain respect by me for doing this and you know it's the right thing to do, so pls follow through with this, I know Ryan would appreciate it as well.
[05:22] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yeh
[05:22] x 2JZ SuPrA x: my damn consience is killing me
[05:22] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and i gave everything back to boost logic
[05:22] x 2JZ SuPrA x: already
[05:22] J: give him a ring today man. like i said, once i hear you've done this i will help u with ur na-t dreams. you can make it happen on almost no budget
[05:22] x 2JZ SuPrA x: well..id like to get this thing sold
[05:23] x 2JZ SuPrA x: and just show up with the cash
[05:23] J: good
[05:23] x 2JZ SuPrA x: dont know if i should call and tell him who i am
[05:23] x 2JZ SuPrA x: or...how to go about it
[05:23] J: tell Ryan that's what you're doing. he probably knows some guys that want to buy a na-t turbo kit. Yes, call him and tell him who you are. Trust me on this, it will really help Ryan out this way.
[05:23] x 2JZ SuPrA x: k
[05:24] J: all you gotta do is be frank and honest..tell him who you are, tell him you realize what u've done is wrong and you want to pay him back.
[05:25] J: meanwhile, make a FS thread on supraforums, clublexus, and clubna-t.
[05:25] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yehh ill take some pics of it tmr
[05:25] x 2JZ SuPrA x: (not at home right now)

About a month later, I had this conversation with the Thief:

[13:36] J: sup man
[13:42] x 2JZ SuPrA x: hey bro
[13:42] *** Auto-response sent to x 2JZ SuPrA x: I am currently away from the computer.
[13:42] x 2JZ SuPrA x: whats up
[13:42] J: hey man
[13:42] J: u talk to ryan yet?
[13:42] x 2JZ SuPrA x: nah but i need to..jsut got the NA-T kit sold
[13:43] J: wow..so u lied to me too :-P
[13:44] J: why did u tell me you would call him that day and not do it?
[13:44] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i dont remember ever saying i would call him that day..but i did then my bad but i just feel better calling him AFTER i have the cash in hand
[13:45] J: we already talkeda bout this.. you have no idea what the amount of damage is?
[13:45] J: you should call him to find out exactly how much money the damages you caused him are worth so you can pay him accordingly.
[13:46] x 2JZ SuPrA x: nah and i dont mean the FULL amount in hand, i just mean whatever i had after selling my stuff...and then calling him and giving him what i had..and then finding out how much else
[13:46] J: why would you do that?
[13:47] x 2JZ SuPrA x: look, this is starting to **** me off. can I do it the way i want to or not
[13:47] x 2JZ SuPrA x: one way or another he is going to get his money
[13:47] J: you don't even know how much money you owe him.
[13:47] x 2JZ SuPrA x: as of now, no. but so what, i will find out
[13:48] J: that is what you said last time
[13:48] J: you promised me you would call him and I never heard from you for several days.
[13:48] J: and you promised you would call him that same day..it never happened.
[13:49] x 2JZ SuPrA x: because you end up messaging me at odd times that i am not awake and everytime im online, you are away
[13:49] J: bs..I gave you his phone number.
[13:49] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i seriously dont recall promising that but okay whatever
[13:49] x 2JZ SuPrA x: yes i know that
[13:50] J: and after over a week after you said you would call him, I called Ryan just to see if you called him. I found out, you made no effort what so ever to remedy the damages you caused to Ryan's Supra.
[13:50] J: I'm not trying to argue with you, I'm just telling you what it looks like from my end.
[13:50] x 2JZ SuPrA x: did you happen to see the for sale thread that i posted for my N/A-t kit?
[13:51] J: hmm, i don't recall. which forums was the for sale ad on?
[13:51] x 2JZ SuPrA x: SF
[13:51] J: link please?
[13:51] x 2JZ SuPrA x: k hold
[13:52] x 2JZ SuPrA x: http://www.supraforums.com/forum/sho...56#post4296156
[13:54] J: cool
[13:54] J: did you also post your coilovers for sale?
[13:55] x 2JZ SuPrA x: no i havent even received them from MVP yet lol
[13:55] x 2JZ SuPrA x: back order for two or 3 mor weeks
[13:55] J: strange, i thought you already had them. can you cancel your order from mvp?
[13:56] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i ordered them with CC, if i receive them and then sell them i will have cash
[13:56] J: I see
[13:57] J: what happens if u come to ryan with all your cash and you find out it's not enough?
[13:57] x 2JZ SuPrA x: im pretty sure it wont be enough
[13:58] x 2JZ SuPrA x: i will just have to give him what i have at the time, and then go back later with more

Not only has he not paid back the damages, he hasn't even gone so far as to make a TELEPHONE CALL to Gamimnon since MARCH 2006! This is simply unacceptable.

Just a matter of the "have nots" letting their envy get the best of their moral judgement. I tend to believe that most people stop themselves from doing these things, whereas the people that do commit acts of thievery need a bit of psychological help before they'll stop. With every thief, you'll always find an "excuse" to justify their actions.

This happens everywhere...young girls shoplifting clothes from the mall, boys who can't afford a nice car and jack others to help "fix it up"... I hope he does the right thing and gets a hard lesson on what's right and wrong.

It looks like the Thief's full name has been revealed : Not only did he steal parts, he did damage to Gamimnon's car that he has yet to pay back.

The guy who posted his addy should be careful, or the mods should edit it off...technically if something bad or illegal happens to that thief as a result of his addy being revealed, the poster could be held liable as well as the shop that disclosed his invoice.

As much as I hate thieves, it's even worse to hear stories about people being sued by criminals. We all know those stories about the criminals who break into someone's house, get shot, and then and win a lawsuit against the person they were trying to rob. Don't want to see that happen here.
