We've listened to your requests.

We've made big changes.

We've added staff and a toll-free number.

We've also added products with names like Hella, Brembo, Weber, and ATE.

We've now come up with a new website that is professional, easy to use, and allows us to serve your needs quickly and efficiently.

However, the website, www.914-Parts.com is going away.

We've come up with a new site, and an introductory offer for you. Enjoy 10% off your first order. Enter the coupon code NEWCUST at checkout.

Our new store is located at http://www.9motorsport.com. In case you forget, 914-Parts.com will take you there.

Thanks for your continued support!

Hmmm...Nate, is a great guy (914-parts.com). 9Motorsport is the same physical address in Sacramento, CA. Good question...Nate are you still at the helm?

Nate probably has realized that most of us 914 owners are CSOBS...and needs to expand his horizons. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Hi All-

Mark, I was gonna at least be a little more diplomatic.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Nate is still here and kicking. The sad reality is that old used 914 Parts are just not enough to make the business grow to where it needs to grow to survive. Keeping up with supply on a limited staff and getting things turned around in the timeliest manner as a challenge. It was somewhat a sad reality. By the time you did all of the things to salvage a used part, there weren't enough hours in the day to make a decent living. I either had to adjust my model- or go back and get a real job. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

The results of what you're seeing here is the result of funds from me selling my 914-6. We are trying to become the best that we can. We've got three people in house now and hope to take this operation to new levels- both as a business, and for our customers. We can get most anything now as we have some excellent suppliers.

Will we still do used parts? Yes, of course, but it will not be the bread and butter of our operation now. We still have a warehouse full of stuff.

I hope this provides an answer- and will be following this thread to answer any questions.

Nate

I think this is a great opportunity for Nate. I hope people here will support his new venture. Nate is honest and wants to deliver quality and service. He likes to make people happy.

Over the last year while working on Project 914 3.6, Nate has delivered over and over again. Yes he nick-named me "Picky Paul" and claims he has a special box for me. Even though I have been a pain in the ass, Nate always searched for the best quality parts of his stash to get me what I needed.

I wish him the best. No affiliation here, just a happy customer.
