Not sure actually. I haven't heard from him in a bit. I think a few locals helped him out though.

Also, your car was on borrowed time. Daniel, the kid who bought your car, had over 3 fucked up, very old and notably worn. Much like some of the vacuum lines that Greg installed on my car. They are worn out lines that he re used. They arn't that fucking expensive. His ethics are shown in his work. I'll post more pictures of this install.

^ That harness adapter is wide open on the top boot of the lower connection, great place to get water into...

[ck_taft325is]

yea mine didnt look like that it was pretty clean.

For the record, while that looks clean at first glance it's actually not. There's a bunch of things not in their proper place. Hell, there's things that SHOULD be places and they are not. Take your harness to fuse panel adapter area. It's not supposed to be hanging there. At all. It's even got a God damn bracket. Why the hell isn't that put in?

Did he wire in a CEL to the cluster? Or was it chilling in your harness?

For over $5,000 I think wiring the fucking CEL into the cluster is a must.

[Farbin Kaiber]

Underhood. Not to the cluster.

That is 100% fucking bullshit. I was making a joke. I had no idea it really was, I was just saying what the most ghetto thing I could EVER think of was.

[ck_taft325is]

Is there an LED or a flashlight bulb attached to it, like an underhood CEL, or does it go to the cluster?

Underhood. Not to the cluster.

That blob of electrical tape?

Bingo.

You see that big piece of crap hanging out of the harness? That's my CEL. Yeah.

[ck_taft325is]

Here, I'm digging into my car a bit trying to get it running, AGAIN... here's what I found in the fucking harness:








This is his wiring. These are open wires just hanging out. One of them is a used connection that has a VERY OBVIOUS SPLIT/CUT in it.

from my experiences with greg the motor he sold me ran solid. he swapped it in and everything and it ran great. I dont think hes a bad guy, but to each his own. I dont think his rep should be fucked from this one swap. I dont know who else this has happened to, but from other people ive talked to they didnt have a problem with him. He was really helpful when something went wrong with my car and no not the motor. little things like the heater blower and what not, he always answered my questions and was usually right about it. he would give me advice on what to get and what not to get.

I know Greg has treated many people right, but he sure fucked Chris and refuses to man up about it.
