Who did I meet in Gebhart Today?

[Bishop]

You had an s50 swap and I was seemingly a stand-offish douche. Don't take it seriously though, rough morning.... You mentioned r3v and not a username.

[Bishop]

I also now see that spelling comprehension owns me at 2:13am.... Gebhardt... knew it looked wrong

[Farbin Kaiber]

Well fuck you too.

[Bishop]

Lol that wasn't you was it?

[Farbin Kaiber]

Nope. I was just messin' wit cha.

[Bishop]

Figured.

Off Topic, gebhart put a timing belt, water pump and did a tune up on my car on my way back to Kansas from Idaho, I was amazed by the customer service and turn around time. I bought the car In Fort Collins then drove it up to our cabin in Idaho raged around for 2 weeks then drove back to Boulder, woke up the next morning and heard a mean belt squeel got out to look and saw coolant. I called a tow truck, told them to tow it to the nearest BMW dealership and prepared to bend over. but they were super cool, and got me on the road again for a little over $600.

Still a lot of change for a timing belt/water pump job. Parts cost 1/4 of that price.

[Bishop]

That ain't bad atm though Philo. I'm lookin at getting the timing belt done soon. A shop quoted like $680 for T-belt. new cam shaft seal, water pump, and some other stuff I think. I don't remember all the details... I'm gonna check with 2 other shops and Gebhart before I take it anywhere though/

[Philo]

FUck that. Give me a sofa, gas money and food and I'll be out there to do it. Just finished mine 3 weeks ago. It will cost you half of the price. :)

[Bishop]

I would but no spare room atm... I'd like to do it myself, but I'm nervous about screwing something up and destroying the motor.

I can find a place to stay out there. I know some peeps. Plus I could just supervise the operation. It is very simple once you've done it before. You just have to be careful; there is nothing special about it.

[Bishop]

Parts + proper tools + bentley + taking my times = win?

I could order the parts, my old man's been a mechanic for 26 years or somethin like that, I have a Bentley, and could dedicate a weekend to it. I was gonna see if my dad would help, but he works caddy / gmc / pontiac etc. and says he never has to deal with timing stuff so he suggested taking it somewhere so it doesn't get messed up.

[Philo]

You'll be thankful you did it yourself too. One more thing you are confident in doing, and you don't have that "what if they fucked up at the shop" look on your face. Oh, and don't for get about the hundreds of dollars you save. You can buy some GC camber plates and a skid plate with that money.

[Bishop]

Already have GC plates, not sure I want the skid plate. I just gotta muster up the cojones to do it.
