i cant finish my car today because i dont have the oil feed line. it should come in tomorrow and if it does i can finish tomorrow.
and um hey phil how did you pay todd? i need to buy stuff from him but i dont know how he wants me to pay. credit card? paypal? debit? i have the invoice but dont know how he wants it and i keep forgeting to ask

hahaha
the difference here is that prostreet wasn't out to mess with everybody. the last post pretty much summed it up.
su had things fall into the wrong places. i hate how people just get so skewed concepts of a good person. specially sombody whose willing to stay up till 7 in the morning because he realized. "oh ____, i told this guy id get his car to him by tomorrow"
granted...id rather not have a rush job. but still. is that a zpi thing to do?
btw. there is a raeson that even though he gave out his cell, that it's a "wrong number"
too many of those honda _____es are calling him and yelling because hes blaming them for the shop getting shut down.
anyways, i gotta figure out how to move hte fans, wanna help? i need to draw up exactly how i want everything.

Well, I've seen his shop, and I would not order any from him if I were out of town. It's not like he has a huge stockpile of parts. He would just order it from somewhere else, just like ZPI would.
However, I'm talking about LABOR, not PURCHASES.
ZPI's work was good, it was the purchasing of parts that wasn't. I just don't see Sue's shop as a retail business. So you can't really dog him for something he doesn't really do on the daily.
so I guess you could say it is like ZPI, in a sense. So, Matt, just don't go there. If you don't trust him, don't use him. Let me know where you do go.
I need a retune and I think I have an oil leak that I want to get taken care of, but as soon as Sue is back up, I'm going back to him cause he's always done me right. But I've enver bought anything from him.
Hieu...when you getting the tooth pulled?
I didn't go out last night, so maybe I can help out tonight? After I get back from the gym?

wow i was just totally just kidding!
i found that on a honda forum and i was like DUDE its just like ZPI!
dont take it so personally.
remember of all of us except for hieu, i went to Prostreet before any of you guys.
i have nothing against any shop here in vegas except for Regulate Auto.
I would go to sue myself but i cant wait for him to relocate so ill go else where. this is what i was thinking maybe.
heard good things about this shop and was recommended by to it by unrelated parties.

yeah, but when you post it up like that, it goes out to everyone on the forum, and they don't know your joking.
I don't care if you joke around, but when it is possibley damageing to someones business, that's not cool.
I was recomeneded to dougs dyno as well by MP motorsports, but did not find the website.
Henderson is cool for me, far from you, but it's already got 3 strikes against me!:
1. Specialize in Mitsubisi
2. Only open Mon-Fri
3. Cash only for dyno.
But give it a shot and lets see how it goes. I need a retune, so I'll wait and see how they do yours.
Plus I just found an oil leek last night, so i gotta get that fixed. I think it's from my feed line cause the oil is puddled on top of my block :sad:
Oh, hieu:
I saw Jonamatic at work today and picked up his spare 360 so I'll try to come by tonight after the gym. 10:00 sound good?

My oil pan was tapped in teh wrong spot, so my dump tube was blowing right on it, cause it to heat up.
As long as you have the whole kit with dumpt tube on when you tap the pan, you should be good.
Also, olaHalo just installed his kit and the maf sensor in the intake was welded on backwards, so he $hit woudn't start. Check if yours is.
Mine was.
