She didn't biatch about it, but she did make a face when I told her how much it would cost. It's getting hard justifying chit for the car with 2 kids and another on the way.
I used to love driving in a car tht overheated. I had a jetta that had a busted water pump and every trip was an adventure! so much fun wondering and trying to keep the car from overheating in traffic . I miss unreliable cars.

just wondering, but my experience has been the factory coolant gauge is not accurate at all. If coolant temps increased by whatever amount, the stock gauge won't really show it until you're at like 240 degrees or something

Actually he's pretty helpful if you read his threads and posts, just as is Sharif.

Keep the chit between them . . . . people like you and I don't have any say in something we don't know about.

[QUOTE=MI 35th]Wow, all that just to prove someone wrong! Finally, Someone that has more time than me.

Im sure both parties are very knowledgeable in their field thats why they are in this business. I to am in the automotive parts industry. I own 2 salvage/recycling/parts yard. Theres better ways to run a business and to attract more customers. Going publicly about another shop is not only rude but makes you look stupid. Just a thought. As a business owner myself I hope the best of these 2 shops. Its hard to have your own business. Good luck

So shouldn't you be minding your 2 salvage yards as opposed to trolling on topics that do not concern you in any way shape or form?
If you think that MRC has no customers, try scheduling a turbo install and see how backed up with work they are...

That means nothing, because they arent a full time performance shop, Julian and crew works later-Julian has a primary full time job. Id imagine it would be easy to get backed up when you arent working typical long shop hours. BTW-this is not a jab at Julian or MRC, just stating facts.

This thread was funny in nature with the exception of a few posts, Julian posted a funny vid, Sharif apologized lets leave it at that!

That's true, MRC is more of a cozy mom-and-pop shop (with Julian being the cranky mom, BTW), not a huge mega-store...

Well I am also part of this Z forums as everyone else. My salvage yards can run themselves with me being here trolling through these topics There ways to solve problems such as work being backed up. Im in no position to give them advice so Ill just leave it at that. Im sure he didnt get into this without knowing the costs.

Ill edit my comments didnt really mean to offend anyone. Just statin my opinions.

Drama queen +122532

MRC Motorsports is one big clown house. Worst part about it is he gets all pumped and riled up to make a dyno run, shows it on the internet, and gets slaughtered with finger points and laughs.

That video cracked me up. Turn in your sponsorship and leeave BROTHERR!

before you discredit someone who has done extensive work for the 350z Community.. please list all the accolades you yourself has done.

Its easy to sit back and call names and attack people when you havn't done anything for yourself.. yeah how is that RB swap going.. waiting for your write up any day now.
