koracing.net So now i have to start all over with another shop explaing what i want and everything! arg!! the company seems to be able to ahndle what i'll need though, so at least he passed me off to a good shop... i guess i could be happy about that, right? OH well i will start the phone calls tomorrow...again... arg, really giving some thought to finding a buddy with an engine hoist and just doing it our selfs and sending the wiring to Tweak, cause i am getting tired of being jerked around by shops who just waste my time... whatever i am going to go gorge on some pizza to feel better about myself now  I should've put this in off topic i guess, my bad...

For 2k...
You can rent a car while your car is down. Buy all the necessary tools and do it yourself. After everything is said and done I'm sure you can spend less than 1000 on top of the motor. Benefits: A bunch of new tools that is yours. Valuable knowledge of your car. |

Valuable knowledge of your car. maybe i could buy all the tools i need for it... a good jack, jack stands, a motor hoist, misc other tools that i wont know i need till i get neck deep in it... then im driving to the store to buy the right tool, only to do the same thing again later that night, renting a car for like the week+ it would take me to do this would be like 500 bucks alone... if not more... Plus i still wouldnt have a work space to do it in. and all this is besides that over powering fact that i HATE working on cars!!!! which pretty much trumps the whole thing. Besides if the sad day come where i am FORCED to sell my car i can sell it for more if a reputable shop did all the work rather than some punk kid in his parents garage... -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2
