His online store is closed.

Any ex-HMT member who doesn't fully endorse RHMT is karmically doomed to failure.  I liked the guy, but he decided to go another path or something and didn't stick around after the initial split.  Wish he'd come back.  But it is what it is.

He probably got sued. He was ripping off copyrighted logos and designs left and right.

That's what happens when you don't sell RHMT shirts out the gate.

Not sure why everyone loves this guy so much. UI got me one of his shirts and the quality isn't that great. He also started a website whoring out holset turbos, making them that much harder to find and more expensive when you do. He was ok but was only around here to put money in his pocket.

[jagojon3]

I got one rHMT shirt from him in the beginning  Don't know if he made many. Still have a "real" sticker too

Scam artist.

the ones i got from him were pretty good. youre canadian, thats the problem.

Just go to Vistaprint and make up your own shirts for half the price.

I have a buddy here who would probably make shirts. His gf loves this stupid shit, iirc they still have a silk screener. Maybe a limited run of 20.

He doesn't come around much. He's been busy building websites for other people. His girl is almost done with school then he should be building another turbo honda. He's been talking about getting an EK hatch. But he's waiting till his girl is done with school. I'll let him know you all miss him, lol.

I ordered things from him, and he never shipped until I threatened to make a call-out thread. I am pretty cool about things that come up, or whatever. The dude told me he only shipped once a week, then told me he had all of these other problems, yadda yadda yadda...3 weeks later and several pm's/emails he shpped my stuff.

I never did really like the guy. Bought from him simply because he was a rhmt member. I could have taken my business locally...

Now that he wont be making a profit, you wont see him.

[jeffsciv23]

did kinda seem like he was only here to make a buck. i didnt really understand why he was so into the holset shirt design and site though

Every HMT shirt I've had has been cafepress or imburne.  I really don't see a quality difference, if anything the imburne unit is slightly better.  Don't get me wrong, it may be a high quality iron on, but it's still just an iron on.  But I've owned the imburne shirt for over a year now and both shirt + logo are holding up fine.

[drivin96]

i got two shirts from him 2 months after i ordered them after huntin him down ..he lost my order and kept the money but eventuly sent my shit out ....main word shit ! shirts lasted like 3-4 weeks and iron ons started to peal off and shirt material hardend up like a nut rag which is perfect cuz thats all i could  use em for now

[Joseph Davis]

That's fucked up, dude.

I have to be perfectly honest... Elijah sent me two packets of free stickers (like two dozen or more) and I eventually bought two tshirts (he sent three).   Most of it is entirely due to e-rep, but I rock some of the stickers on my workbench and I've put others on ECUs I've chipped and that stuff is legit... who doesn't want a Peterbilt ECU?

Anyway, him being new to the whole tshirt thing might have messed something up.  That being said when I saw what sort of transfers were on my shirts I washed them in cold water and dried them inside out on a med-low setting and made sure they never got nuked (I have a couple shirts that require that already).  Not to be a dick, but do you know how to do laundry?  Transfers with large surface areas get fucked up by heat, you need to turn the shirt inside out and be careful about how long and what intensity you dry it.  My FAKLAD shirt screams fragile w/ it's huge surface area but IDK as I've never let it stay long in the drier.  The HMT shirt is just a tank, it's been nuked three times when my kid borrowed it.

Some of you dipshits didnt read the thread I posted a while back on the status of stuff. Most of the ones hating have never met me or really know shit.

The quality of the stuff I was running was dog shit as first as I was playing with different materials and inks. Everyone who had gotten the newer stuff still looked great for the most part. The quality of vinyls differed even within the same manufacturer, which in the end hindered the life of some of the shirts.

did kinda seem like he was only here to make a buck. i didnt really understand why he was so into the holset shirt design and site though

The only reason I even started IBurnClothing was of the HMT insipration from everyone back in the days. We wanted custom shirts, the ones out there were gay, and so I took it upon myself to start a small t-shirt business mostly for our ideas. Wonder why you dont remember this OG..

A call out thread on your shirts not being delivered on time? I don't remember you threatening me with such a faggot ass comment. Life happens and thats why I closed it down. Not worth my time.

So you got your stuff and you dont know how to wash shirts.. fuck off.

Scam artist.

You are the faggots from vwvortex that fucked over the poll to fake a win and expected a prize? I remember clearly. and yeah you didnt get shit from me.

That's fucked up, dude.

Thanks..

Also have given away tons of stickers of HMT when we were there and RHMT. also the countless extra shit I would send out to people who bought anything from me.

I snagged all the emails from the old HMT and sent them emails letting them know about this site.. which had rick calling me at 10pm complaining about telling the FBI and the cops.. bla bla bla..

Some of you have valid complaints. Yeah I wasnt the perfect shipper sometimes, nobody got hotrexed though right? As a matter a fact I sent hotrex a CDM shirt FOR FREE to pose in a picture strangling his mom, and I never got the pic

So yeah I did a little of my part of being a member here.

Okay, I'm sold, but only if you can post here more.  Otherwise FUCK YOU!

FYI I like you, but I really really like you because you are 90boostdaccord's friend.  He was the soul of my argument with xeno as to why turbothis was a valid premise.  I have $10 that says he's totally unaware of this because I've never said two words to him.
