benny, i just realized that that cost is for the turbo installation and tunning, but he has gauges and INJECTORS which cost him more hours, so it will cost him around 1300 for everything or more....LOL....i dont' know man, i was trying to call ken last night to talk to him and to yell at him little bit, but it was tooooo late.....

steven

 

Lmao...guys its more then that even...I have gauges, oil pan, injectors, radiator, water pump, thermostat, water meth......maybe HKS hi power havent decided lol.....Im screwed def not gonna be done in time or i get my car somewhere this weekend and say " I wanna go fast"

 

yeah now youre fucked. thats alot of **** for not so much time. honestly do something NOW before you dont have anythign.

 

im screwed.... no doubt it took awhile to get all my stuff and i dont have the oil pan or water pump yet should be here mid next week.....I could technically have someone tune my cobb from out of state chickenwafer the guy who i got the kit from tuned his cobb himself and offered to do it instead of using MM...I just need stuff installed.


whats the deal with JPR............. I know they just quoted someone $900 for a normal greddy turbo install.

 

i think it will be a little more pricey but jim does a great job, he did my 8.. wasnt too fond of the tuning they did but i didnt know **** so i couldnt really give good advice about hat... just call dave and drop that **** off.

 

woot woot ... leaving for spring break to miami ... going to be back in a week ... expecting this thread to have over 1k posts!

 

^ room in the suitcase ill pay the overcharge for the heavy bag lol.

 

ken, i am serious about my mechanic, it's in NJ, it takes you 30 minutes, and he can do it weekend, LOL....let me know if you are interested, i am dead serious a bout your progress. also, you can come to check him out while he is working
steven

 

^Thai wings on me lol.

 

I wouldnt do JPR... hes great and nothing against him... but he wont have it done in time..... He works by himself..

I would listen to steve.... go to his mechanic for the install.... it will prob take a week..... then go to dave for the tune.... Dave is busy too and has other cars there... at least your car will be priority at steves mechanic. Also maybe you can save a few things for the trip back... and NOT throw so much in at once..

 

I settled it with steve im good.

 

talked already to the guy dennis, i had to spank him little bit in order to move ....it's good now, we will work on the Turbo install soon....we will post some pictures, don't worry guys, we will make it happen before going to DGRR...
it will be with my mechanic

steven

EDITOR FAILS AT LIFE

 

WOOOW ... the engine wasn't even in existance in 1920 .... this is what happens when someone who does not understand cars writes about them ....

I go to www.jalopnik.com for my automotive news

 

ken let me borrow your other Turbo for DGGR. lol =]

 

I might put up GI: Car For Sale... Thread soon. What do yous think is a good price?

 

How about WTF are u talking about willis......youre just gonna pull a ken and not sell your car end up bangkoking your **** and being happy.


First ghost now you........epic 8's are being lost.

 

why do you wanna sell it? you got sick of it? it will be the same when you buy M3, you will get sick of it too one day...it's a car enthusiast thing where you get bored.
you just need to find out how to change things, LOL,,,,


may be you can pay him in certain months...LOl

 

I just want to see how much I can get for the car. Anything over 10k and I make out. Just looking for options. I kinda want a brand name car. BMW, Benz, Audi, older Porche. I cant afford 2 car payments. So I'm def just thinking about the future. Thats why it would be a GI--General Interest thread.



Whats up are u up for this Ken. but I would sell the snail and get a bigger one and powder coat the pipes and put kels nitrous on just to stand out lol jk lol.

 

ummm, all those cars companies you mentioned have the same if not more amounts of problems then the 8 does...and what makes them worse is...none of us really know how to work on them

the way the ****'s do things is completly different from the rest of the world, so if your thinking your going to save by getting one your going to end up paying more for it in the end, especially when things go wrong, just shop labor rates in general are more expensive, assuming wayne mazdas labor rate is around 85 dollars an hour, something like a bmw is probably close to 110 an hour

its your decision buddy, im just trying to get you to see the bigger picture.

the car doesnt bring respect to the driver, the driver brings respect to the car

 

Hes right.
Omar even though i like touching cars inside and out i wouldn't even touch a newer BMW just because of how much reverse engineering goes into them. There shop manual rates for changing the simplest things are stupid high.

Anyways few weeks left for Deals

 

Out of 738 post.... thats probably your best quotable line.... LOL
