    Welcome. And, yea...everyone's a hard crowd. So, honestly - don't take anyone seriously.

    They are just bitching cause we all drive old shit-boxes. :)

    Again...welcome to teh R3V! Don't R3V your car now! ;)

      you are a mechanic by trade, yet a 5 hour job takes 48 hours?

        good one.

        trans job wihtout a lift+lots of lost tools+lots of rust+freezing cold+wound up swapping out the turbo for one that wasnt blown. it took a long time, maybe 48 hours is an exadgeration...but still it took longer than it should have



        and i may be a mechanic, but i never said i was a good one...

            Welcome. With this crowd it takes a little chutspa to post your car. You end up spending 300hrs and 10 grand on your car, post it on line and there is always someone with the "it needs to have a plate filler" or "lose the diving boards" or "bronzit sucks".
