Angry What A Bad Day

Ok well today after like 3 months i finnaly turned my car and its all gets bad from here... about 3 months ago my bro took my car for a ride and he said wen he stopped smoke was coming from my engine so wen i got home i looked at the car and it looked like coolant was all over the engine... and today wen i turned my car on and put coolant in i found out the radiator cracked on the top (stock radiator)... and wen moved the car it felt really weak like its running on 1 rotor so im guessing he overheated the motor or an apex seal went... so after bein pissed all day long a happy thought came to my had to do a jspec turbo swap =) so now its time to look for a motor...

Dang... well I would do a compression test first and check your coolant seals also.. I'm not sure, but I think its your coolant seals that are frigged first if you overheat for too long... Secondly, if the compression is good and your coolant seals arent frigged, you might just need a tune up... you did let it sit for 3 months.

just make sure you read and read and know exactly what you're getting into. Main points off the top of my head are probably....
- you'll need to upgrade your tranny as well if you're looking for anything over stock turbo2 power levels
- jspec will probably need a rebuild before you plop it in even if it's low mileage

First, bro and the n nead is to talked corre ctly, right. Why did you waited 91 days, sorry, 3 monnnthes, to check YOUR CAR OUT? Then you say, you started, then checked for fluid? And how ddid you turn your car on? Whisper a poem in the intake manifold? Stick you dipstick in the overflow hole? Dude , your engine is shot. Thank your bro, and be a man, and don't ask us. Friends don't let friend drive, stupid, unless they are also.

PEACE THE DOG

Sup. I'm in central jersey, maybe 15 minutes from princeton if you know where that is. Dunno anyone with a turbo motor for sale, sorry. Maybe try the regional forum. If you can't find a turbo, have you considered trying to rebuild your current motor?

******* ****** and their stupid way of telling someone they suck at typing or they are a bad speller. I understood his paragraph just fine. I just can't help him.

He is here to get help not to be bashed upon because of bad spelling or missing words. If NO ONE can read it, ok thats one thing, but obveously others can read and understand it just fine. Either help him or don't. Why can't someone ban these ******* ******. Wish I could. The world would be so much happier.

No one will listen. I have tried to get the point across many times. There will be more members coming in on this thread to bash on him, you, me and others that have made mistakes because not everyone can be "perfect" like them.

Good luck getting ahead in life...
Either you're not in an English speaking country or your job does not require you to have a good grasp of the English langauge...

This is why you're not a mod.
You have no idea how things work in life.
I'll give you a HINT - LEARN ENGLISH AND USE IT, AND MOST PEOPLE WILL RESPECT YOU FOR IT.

If you have forgotten, this is an English language based forum.
The better you can converse with the English langauge, the better you can get your point across.
If more people can understand you, the better responses you will get?

Since you have no clue how to offer an answer, why the hell you posting your whiney crap in here?
You're just about calling the kettle black - at least I was offering for the original poster to try and restate his original post in a little better English so it's easier for the rest of us (not you) to comprehend.
BTW, what was your SAT verbal score?

Learn to capitalize and at least spell...
You think I'm going to take you seriously when you type like a 3rd grader?
You gotta be kidding me...

MAYBE YOU NEED TO READ THE STICKIES IN THIS SECTION SOME DAY

"Please use proper spelling, punctuation and sentence structure.
It can be very difficult and frustrating to try and interpret a post that lacks punctuation, capitalization, correct spelling and proper sentence structure. The result is that you get fewer replies, and the ones you get are probably not what you were looking for since the reply is based on a post that was almost impossible to understand. In general, a poorly made post shows immaturity and lack of caring, which makes it really hard to take the poster seriously. On the Internet, the only impression you make with people is via your text. You will get a much better response if you make a good impression, and it takes only slightly more effort to use proper spelling, punctuation and structure then to not do so.

So called "IM speak" is also a major hassle for many people to understand. There is no real reason to use abbreviations or "AOL speak" since this forum is not real-time and you have plenty of opportunity to compose your thoughts in actual words and sentences."

Sure, I guess the next generation of kids don't give a **** about the English langauge.
No wonder this society is going down the toilet...
No one gives a **** anymore...

BTW, it's posted as a GUIDELINE in the stickies.
Try and read them sometime...

Spelling is a gift, and apparently quite a few of you don't have it naturally. Go buy/download Microsoft Word, and be done with it. Moving on..

Do a compression test, and work from there.
