Oh my, I HATE wiring lol. Id love to come down and help this time but its me and my girls year anniversery on sat. so Ive got the day planned with her. Whens the next time you have something to do to the Z? I have yet to work on yours and Im starting to get sad haha.

 

meth? really i thought dave didnt really like meth, could be wrong just the impression i got from him. I was gonna pick up a meth kit but thogh i had to get another tuner, guess not

 

Don't feel bad, I got the same vibe from Dave. He originally told me it would have been a waste, but that was before I had a fully built motor. The motor and heads should be able to handle 20+lbs of boost and the way Dave descibed it, we will be using the meth more to control temps and add octane rather than add timing. If all else fails, just remember "The customer is always right".

I give Dave credit for telling me no rather than just putting it on and getting paid.

 

Enjoy that quality time Jon!! I will be working the next few weeks as long a the weather is tollerable, just hit me up when you are available.

 

Got these today from Suzanne as Frank contimues assembly:

 

 

IB killed my sig today - did i mention that this is being done at:

Hill's Garage





Frank was able to keep the colors from washing out like on my pics - much better .

 

Everytime I look at these pictures I'm reminded of the 4th of july.....even if its with a japanese flare...

- Thanks man, the next few weeks should show some serious progress as we prep for the swap and get the other pieces from powder coat and start putting on the braided hoses and fittings. It may be a bit much, but I want my car to be an attention *****!!

 

My latest classied ad purchase has experieced massive amounts of FAIL !!

I am giving the seller an opportunity to make it right, if not, I will call upon the posse (you know who you are) to bring me justice!!

Pics and full disclosure to follow!!!

 

I'll get a rope ready.

Maybe you should link this seller to the thread where I gathered up the posse against that scammer minus500. He's permabanned from both my350z and g35driver now.

 

It is looking awful good as the progress moves on........i likey.

 

Roundem Up!!

 

Your motor is almost to pretty to put in the engine bay!!

 

We have traded several PM's and I emailed him many pics of the damage. I just hope he understands that this is between UPS and him, not UPS and myself. I am the injured party here, anything that happened was out of my control, my duty was to pay promptly and that was most certainly done. I will give it a few days to remedy itself before the full story is put out there.

Like I said in the title....the good, the bad & the progress.

 

The engine looks AWSOME!!!!!!!!

 

fob shipping point, or if you signed its between you and ups unfortionatly gl

 

Car def is coming along great. Can't wait to start mine, and see the finish product of yours.

 

If its insured only the shipper can be reimbursed by UPS. All I know for fact is that if I get stuck, the posse and I will harass and destroy the seller to the point that he may as well sell his Z, cause his life on this forum is over. The power of the posse is not to be messed with .

If needed, I will also file a paypal dispute and I have pics from the sale thread to compare against pics from delivery plus PM's from me stating that the package should not be packaged in a specific manor, which it was. I think most of my bases are covered.

I'm a trusting person at heart, but I'm no idiot, after being burned on the motor I'm uber protective of my a$$ on classified sales.

 

^ That right there will be enough to get him banned if he doesn't make things right.
