yeah, there seems to be a recurring theme on these forums with members paying money for parts & services they get too f**king late. Sorry to hear mate, I would definitely take my business elsewhere, in your case it may be hard because of your location but try and call around and sort out your options. Hopefully it works out for ya soon enough.

hey mate what is going on with this. I need that money for the box buddy. If your cams are gonna be like 6 months I can't wait that long for the money mate. I can garantee the gearbox is fine and was running perfect when I took it out of my car. The reason I need the money is to pay katie for the veilside rear bar and I don't really want to f**k her around mate.
Cheers mitch

ive got a reward of $300 to anyone who could provide me information as an incentive for someone to speak up if they know anything.
wanna see if that works first
dont really wanna get insurance involved cos that would end up costing me a lot more. excess is $1300 as well plus it would raise my premium a lot.

how old are you?
I was suprised myself.
Its a shame about the damage mate. Hopefully you'll find that bastard and introduce their face to a tyre iron.
Its really hard to stop this from happening, especially when you park in high risk places. Honestly, your best approach would be to buy a really cheap shitbox run-around car which you can use for school and just drive the fto everywhere else and on weekends

. So if something does happen to your shitbox you dont have to bother fixing it.

Top Gear...
I reckon my recent dyno was only done in 3rd gear...
Made way less than it should have, but no easy way to prove.

speed limiter cuts in at 190,
3rd gear is good for 170-180

It should be in the gear that is closest to a 1:1 drive ratio
For a 4 spd tip, thats 3rd
For a 5 spd tip, thats 4th
For a 5 spd manual, thats 4th
They probably did it in 5th...
