Default Kore3 customer service

Giving credit where credit is due...I dealt with Tobin at Kore3 last year with regards to sourcing and purchasing front C6 Vette brakes for my 69 Camaro.He was really helpful with all my stupid questions and gave me a great price on everything i needed.Fast forward a year and I had a few brake related questions so I called him up and even though I was only buying a few small items this time he was every bit as helpful and just a cool guy to deal with.In closing if you're thinking about upgrading your brakes Kore3 is pretty darn good to deal with so a big thanks to Tobin and continued success for Kore3...

Dave

You can't go wrong with Kore3. I bought my Z06 brake conversion kit for my 68 Camaro from Tobin and he took the time to explain everything I would need to do the conversion. He never tried to rush me into a sale and after I placed my order I knew I had made the right choice. They have stayed true to the customer and if I do another project I will be calling them.

Tobin had been doing business the right way for a long time now, probably 12 years ago I worked with him and he was awesome. I hope the good guys like him are as successful as they deserve to be.

Yeah, count me in as a Tobin/Kore3 fan. I used his setup on my TA. Fantastic product and customer service. If I do anything brake related to the C10, I will be calling him.

Same experience for me. Tobin and I have had numerous long chats about braking technology, opinions of people in the area (specifically "he who shall remain nameless", that has been removed from Lateral-G).

He's always been incredibly helpful even when i'm just picking his brain on braking performance questions.

I know i will continue to use Kore3 any time i need something for one of my projects that he sells.

Default Kore3 and Tobin are the best!

I've been dealing with Kore3 and directly with Tobin since I bought my kit in 2009. Periodically I'll ask him questions or get his opinion on things and not only does he respond right away, but he's always thorough and provides the best info/opinions/resources!

I'm SO glad I went with Kore3 all those years agon, it's been a GREAT kit and the customer service is the best I've ever experienced in any industry!

Robert
