yes, this is like a joke like saying a virgin h**cker or like something that only lives in our fantasy like the unicorns etc... :mrgreen:
It's a long story but I'll try to make it short:
->7:15am Hand the keys+ACT Xtreme+MS engine mounts
->11 Phone call to his wife "Is everything going OK? I just called to check and tell to George that if he feels that heeds to change anything over there there is no problem I can pay extra"
->12:30pm 2nd phone call to his wife "Can you please tell George to to use Mobil transmission oil I can pay the extra"
->4pm 2nd Phone call -> No answer
->5pm 3nd Phone call ->No answer
->...
->6:00pm 7-8th phone call no answer
->6:15pm I arrived there:
George "You are not my friend, you didn't tell me that the car has issues, that it has a SC, I was trying to lift the engine and I couldn't and then the header bolds had stuck there and I had to cut the header(?) ...and this and that... I NEED $80 more :shock:
Initial price $250+60 so $80 is more than 25% more!!!
I'm giving him $60 and I'm leaving the garage...but the car doesn't sound like before...sounds more like a beetle :mrgreen:
I'm calling him the next day to tell him that I gave you a miata and I got a beetle...I'm giving him a ride but he can't hear anything...
Back to the garage where he can't see/hear any exhaust leak...so I'm leaving like that
Next week I'm removing the SC to see if there any problem to the header bolts...everything seems OK...SC back and the problem persists
...so today I'm trying to change the gasket (exshaust manifold with the pipe that connects to the cat afterwards)...and OMG
This guy did the worst work I ever seen and he did it to my car!
Briefly
->He removed cut the stud from one of the bolts
->He reused the same gasket (that's so minor really)
->He welded(?) and somehow destroyed the surface of the the contact areas - it's not smooth anymore
->He used a way smaller bolt inside (there is a huge gap all over the hole)
->(minor) But I don't know how and why he used an old beaten bolt =D>
This guy is the worst f*cker ever =D>
I just wish I had him in front of me now...along with my baseball bat
Enjoy the pictures...
