Have you ever been so pissed off...?
well today i was suppose to pick up my car so i could go to the northeast cruise. 2 weeks ago my turbo came, two days after that my manifold was done. monday my car finally started with the new motor, only thing left was half of my down pipe needed to be finished and the IC pipding for the turbo to IC. DP was finished yestreday morning and i was suppose to pick it up today. WONDERFUL GREAT i was excited. call the shop to see what time to stop by, "they dont know havent heard from the shop thats doing my dp and ic piping. so i call back at 12, same thing, and havent heard from since. they dont pick up the phone. ------- wonderful. i love how this always happenes. hopefully ill be able to get it in time for the ------- dyno session with xenocron. knowing my luck that wont happen. Sorry guys i wont be there tonight >:( i am going to go smash something

Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
I go through the same ---- all the time (and so does BBKA if you remember his post from a while back). My car is absolutely fine until about 48 hours before I want to do soemthing with it, and then it takes a ----. It seems like I am always under the gun like "OK, IF my parts show up in 48 hours ANDI can get everything iunsalled in one night then I SHOULD be alright."
rarely happens. I just had JEGS send me the wrong muffler 3 times in a row. turns out whatever retards they have in their warehouse can't distinguish a 1 from a 2, and they sent me part number 11226 rather than 11216....3 ------- times in a row. |

Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
i wouldnt say they do shotty work. the stuff these guys have done is amazing, wait till you see my modifyed bmc manifold. they just take a while to do things sometimes and the fact that they didnt bother to call me today and let me know that my car wasnt done is what pissed me off. these guys arent your average shop, they know what they are doing, you should see this 03 wrx thats now an sti. ------- sick, plus all the other cars they do, i just hope i get mine back before i go to the dyno. this was sortof one of those rants that you do when your pissed off at the time, and then your ok with it, cause they event didnt end your life.

Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
I can vouche for Mahcivic as being a vary capable mechanic. He actually did most of the work at the NE install with Hotrex. He was dirty all night and has my respect with or without a shop throwing his ---- together.
P.S. Jordan I have a hoist if you ever need to borrow one. I'm in Manchester. |
Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
haha thanks mang...we need to do another meet up so i can acutally let you guys see my damn car. maybe after the dyno day. thats on the 18th so maybe friday the 22nd? or we can go to the lebonon valley and run a few times.

Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
best advice is to stay on them and don't blow your top and start being rude or pushy. just lat them know you know what's going on and ask a few questions. oh, and this can be avoided if you did it yourself, but i know some people just don't have the time to do it themselves or the resources.

Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
well heres what happened, the guys that have been working on my car sent it to anyother shop to get the down pipe done and the intecooler piping done too, apperantly their welder broke, and decided not to call me or the guy at the shop to inform me, how considerate, so i went up there and the guy was being a HUGE dick head to me. so i let him continue to be a dick head went back to the other shop and told the guy waht happened, hes calling the owener of the exhuast shop and letting the owner know that his workers are assholes to customers, long story short i get my car back on tuesday or wednesday

Re:Have you ever been so pissed off...?
around here (lewis county) your lucky if tweakers dont take apart your ignition and put it back together with hex headed bolts instead of the self shearing kind, when you've only taken it in for head gasket.
