I after a plate kit for the nova tried Harry Hockley today email and phone call to no luck. Couldn't get though, any one else had this issue or am I just unlucky ? Or does anyone know someone else who sells the kit, for a good price seen it on ebay for £130 which is a lot,
also I saw chrisashley motor sport had then for sale but I though they went under a while ago
any one ahead some light

About 1 month ago I chatted via email about modding my Nova hubs, replied within 24hrs each time.

Called several times, about 30% success rate getting an answer.

Only real quibble I have with them right now is they lie about completion times for the work and don't call back when they say they will.

I would never use CAM again. One of the worse companies i've ever dealt with. I was lucky to get my bits just very very very late. Alot of other people never saw any paid for parts...

LMF or David Dixon on here...

What a fcuking a$$ hole CAM is

People like that really are a disgrace, back trading and probably not giving two fcuks bout all the £££ he ripped people off for

I know what its like to work for and run a business which is struggling with money issue it all kinda builds up. I was not going to use them just to be safe, but if they can offer great service as I have had form them in the past then I may be willing to. I was only finding out if they were up running again but I think it may be a german site now, as all the customer service and stuff is in german.
lmf do the kit I will be on to them then

Please I don't want this to go in to a CAM slagging off post only asking if they were up a running they did me not wrong and I got the part quick and at a good price

HH never answer the bloody phone. I had a set of Group A billys of them early last year, took nearly a week of calling about three times a day before anyone answered.

Then ordered a Corsa Group A induction setup, took three weeks arrive & it was in a farking terrible state. Wouldve sworn it was second hand.

HHMS were fine when I had some machining work done by them; not being in a rush about a car build isn't a bad ethos.

Nor is doing what you said you would do. If I am told 'they will be done and with you by the weekend'... I expect this to actually happen.

Chris Astley is back trading under the same name again, really?

If that's true then it really angers me. I bought a conversion mount kit once upon a time and received/heard nothing.

Hope he enjoyed my hard earned money.

Understand that no matter what the response is; calling and asking again won't change a thing. If anything it'll make you wait longer.

I understand that you are wrong lol

I called them up last week stating that they promised (that word was actually used) I'd have them by now, within 48 hours of the call I had the parts in my hand with an apology.

The work is top notch, apart from the delay I am pleased.

I would definitely go for David Dixons stuff. A big nova fan and decent discounted prices for png members.
