Canadian 2000 QC 5.9L 4X4 proud owner here...

To my fellow canuck Dak owners:

Anybody order from these guys? I need RS 180 T-stat and powerslot rotors for my ride. I 've sent e-mails to these guys and I 've asked for their phone number but mums the word on there side.

They mentioned pay-pal but I like the personal touch when giving my out my plastic.

I just want to know who I'm forking over my money too. Dealt with Bernd in the past and he's A1, but with US orders it's our customs guys that rape me.

Our US neighbours don't know how fortunate they are as consumers. They have selection and accesibilty to merchandise that we have to jump through hoops, endless waiting, and be financialy sodomized to acquire, ie. fishing tackle US Wal-Mart's have a bigger and better selection than most of out Outdoor shops in Toronto!

I couldn't agree with you more !

It is tough to find anything up here in Canada, and if you do, it has to be ordered from the States anyways.

I haven't had a chance to order anything from speedtweaks.ca (Revenue Canada sure likes their taxes !), so I can't tell how reliable they are.

I do know that speedtweaks.ca is run by Tyler Lawrence, and he is based out of Edmonton. I haven't heard any positive/negative comments about speedtweaks.ca unfortunately.

Just one word of warning, avoid Crappy Tire for any special orders at all costs. Order from the company's website before ordering from Crappy Tire.

How can you tell ! :-)

Went to SummitRacing.com, and from the information on their website, they had my order ready to go in one day and shipped out by the second.

Hopefully it should be here in about two weeks or so !

Thanks CW, glad to see this address worked :).

Gus, the reason why we do not give out a phone number is because we have no number to give. ST.ca is currently a sideline business to my full time job. I request emailing for information because I am able to track common questions and hopefully add them to the Tips & Tricks section if need be. It also keeps a written dialog so if a customer asks to order something that he inquired about a month ago, I have the records to refresh my memory. I apologize for the inconvenience, but untill ST.ca can pay my bills full time I am forced to do things this way. All orders are processed and shipped out within a very timely fashion with the current email order system.

The bank is now close to being done processing our credit card acceptance request and we hope to have an online order form up in the very near future.

For any questions please feel free to email me at info@speedtweaks.ca.

- Tyler

To Tyler:

Sorry for the indirect approach using this board; these days finding trust is like winning the lottery.... Just wanted to get a sense of who I 'm doing biz with, hope you can understand.. been burnt before...

How about those power slots? Crappy Tire (infamous Can, Tire) quoted me 173+tax15% ea., can you beat that delivered to Maple, ON (40 km N of T.O.).

Regardless, thanks for your post and expect an order for a T-stat soon.

Thanks.

It doesn't really matter since it is a internet business anyways. Nothing much to see except a wearhouse.

CW: You put the new HO cams in your 4.7L right? Are they worth spending the money on? Did you see some decent gains?

Oh yeah the cams are definitly worth it. Dragstrip testing but no dyno testing knocked about .2 to .3 off. More torque right where the 4.7 lacks. I am real border line on the intake though seems to have killed some throttle response but the upper RPM breathing is better.

Sorry didn't get back to you sooner had to take more Chrysler technical training and Jeeps. Two day course.
