It's been quite common that when you stage up you lose a few PR, which you usually get back with your first installed material at the new stage. You'll see it happen over and over as you progress.
You got lucky, your PR could have even dropped after installing a material (not just after rebuilding, that is a know issue as well). Look at it this way: during later upgrades, you start with lvl3 car and empty green parts. You need something like 10 upgrades per each part, which means close to 50x6 materials installed (most of the times several of them) and 60 upgrades, totaling 360 actions for something like 200-250 PR raise - which means significant part of them will be without a PR raise.

You failed to comprehend what he said. He had a 3 star rare part and leveled up to a 4 star rare. You only lose PR when you go from a rare 5 star to an epic 4 star, and when going from the epic to legendary.
You don't lose PR when you go from common to uncommon, and from uncommon to rare. You also don't lose PR when upgrading to a higher star in the same category.

Your PR NEVER drops when upgrading within the same class. You will never go down a PR when going from a 2 star uncommon to 3 star uncommon. You will never go down in PR when going from a 3 star rare to a 4 star rare.
Installing material and seeing no change, as you move up in the parts class, is more common. But when raising your star level within the same class of part, your PR should always increase, even if just one.

Sorry to say that, but you are wrong here. It is hard to prove it, as it comes unexpectedly, but more than once I experience cars PR to DROP after INSTALLING a material (which was of course raising PR of the part where it belonged). It is strange and it probably comes from some rounding errors during counting of total PR, but it really happens. You will most likely encounter it when upgrading cars with lower min-max difference, like super and hyper cars. I've experienced it with La Ferrari.

I swear I have seen this on a RARE occasion also. I don't believe it's supposed to happen but for some reason it pops up given the right set of circumstances.
