Default ----, One prob after another.....

GOD DAMN IT!!! Lately it seems like my shitbox car is trying anything to keep the turbo of it. 1st my tire exploded with a quarter size hole in the side wall. later that week my steering arm looses the retaining bolt and comes loose while driving sending me into a curb. Next week my car gets hydro-locked for 3 days. I get that fixed and am now preping my turbo to put it on later this week and another obsticle. ----, I clocked my turbo and drilled new holes to mount the WS actuator. I start screwing in a bolt in one of the holes to be sure it would fit and the bitch snaped off in the hole. No prob, I brake out my bolt extractor kit and get started. After I get a hole in the bolt I use the extractor and it also snaped off in the hole!!! At this point I said ---- it and left that metal stump in the hole and am just mounting the actuator w/ 1 bolt. Theres really no point to this post, I just wanted to vent. Im really not gonna be surprised if my motor blows after the turbos on. At least Ill be able to say my car was turbo...
