Sorry to say, I'm not liking them. Cranster, is your car lowered, because it doesn't appear so. Maybe that would help, because those are some skinny -a** tires.

 

EDIT: Actually its just the first pic that's throwing me off. Maybe they just need a good wash and a daytime pic.

yes its lowered , just not unpractically slammed to the ground. its just cause its dark and the dirt is fukin it up. it is dirty. skinny tires? haha , they are 215's buddy. middle pic is the best although didnt come out the best.

where i stand right now , engine out and ripped down. crank in the k24 bottom. flywheel stepped and ready. sending unit out to install pump and change over return system. ran into a snag with piston rings. i ordered a set from CP which is in cali , cause buddy i bought them from said a ring was missing off one of the pistons. never really looked closer than that till today. and nova , my machine shop , even had these for a week. one piston like he said , was missing a ring. another one of them had a broken ring. and another piston has a bent ring. just fawking lovely. props to him for being a stand up guy thouh , covered cost of one set , more than he had too really , and i thank him. so i called buddy at CP back , freddy his name is , got 3 more sets of rings comming , fuk it putting all new ones on after this episode. 60 bucks US to have them here monday. not bad really i guess , what choice do i have. they better be here monday , lol.

no problem , that will be 4500 bucks please , haha.

 

 

 

well UPS fuked me. i payed big money to have my rings overnighted to me friday at lunch. buddy assured me id have them yesterday , monday. apparently , UPS fuked something up , noone will claim responsibility , go figure. i called CP yesterday at supper after not getting them. buddy told me hes not sure whats going on but they are still in california. UPS says earliest ill have them is wednesday at supper. fuking lovely. all UPS would say is "there was a problem in transit". meaning they are incompetent and someone didnt do thier job obviously. they were scanned by UPS 9pm on friday. CP shipped them mid afternoon friday.

 

if i get my rings by wednesday night , who wants to take bets if ill get it done in time? haha.

Sorry to hear this man. I'm not a big UPS fan either.....a lot of problems with either shipping delays or a package arriving damaged somehow... I always use FedEx when possible.

 

Maybe there was a miscommunication and UPS doesn't speak Canadian well :laugh:

Damn, your car and engine just keep getting more interesting.

 

I enjoy wrenching when I can but your ability to tear the hell out of something and put it back together, seemingly without any effort, is just excellent.

 

How long before a magazine article for you?

ill give you $5 and a candy bar.

 

lol sucks about ups though. ive never had any problems with them, but i guess nobody is perfect. but not owning up to their mistake is bs. maybe its becuase they have to deliver 5000 ricer wings...haha jk hope you get the parts tomorrow. and ill take $5 if you get the motor done in time :)
