Just go in and put your demanding hat on.. Mechanics always freak out when you go in person.

JDM323 · 19-09-2011, 07:57 PM

smurfy · 19-09-2011, 08:05 PM

Ice88 · 19-09-2011, 08:26 PM

Hopefully they take less time then they did to replace my monitor. Still waiting 9 weeks later.

But seriously i hope they come back with good news and that he gets his ass into gear.

EDIT: btw one of your smiley faces doesnt line up with the others.

smurfy · 19-09-2011, 08:33 PM

the insurance company is onto him now. so hopefully he'll get off his arse and do something so they kept him as there pefered mechanic in my area.
insurance company has been really helpful so far.

Ice88 · 19-09-2011, 10:45 PM

smurfy · 30-09-2011, 06:19 PM

soo i got my car back after two and a half weeks. They did a pretty good job with it, came up nicely.
I didnt wait long to mod more, me, sp20db and hes mate changed the 30mm tein springs to kings super lows at it just wasnt low enough for me on teins. So they will be up for sale soon.

Plans are:
2 1/4 exhaust with cannon
vinyl bonnet
maybe a lip

Ben · 30-09-2011, 06:47 PM

Nooo not a canon!

Need pictures ASAP!

Ice88 · 30-09-2011, 06:50 PM

Yeah. Cannon = fail. EoS

SP-20-DB · 30-09-2011, 07:02 PM

Remus all the way

smurfy · 30-09-2011, 10:01 PM

i like the sound of my cannonn

doesnt sound like a ****boxx

phildough · 30-09-2011, 10:12 PM

I had a cannon and 2 large resonators and I thought it sounded like sh!t.
But some people liked the way it sounded.
So its each to their own.
Im of the theory now that NA and cannons dont go together.
Unless you have a large plug in it to restrict it.
My car is now rather quiet but has a nice note when needed and im running a 2.5" exhaust.

smurfy · 30-09-2011, 11:10 PM

i think i like it and dont get sick of it as i drive auto and as soon as i take my foot of the pedel theres no noise, as you get in a manual. Going for the two L's, low and loud

SP-20-DB · 03-10-2011, 11:11 PM
