hey yea! i'll be there... if Acosta ever gets off there A$$ and finishes my car up...
place been madd shady with dates n stuff, i didnt want results asap i just wanted to know a reliable time frame, harold told me it would take 8 hrs .... that was last wed plus 3 days for injectors to go out and come back from cleaning ( says sat. night i should stop by to pick it up at the latest) i was like ok let me call before my friend drives me down just so we dont waste four hours, he was like oh yeah dont bother, it wont be done till wednesday ....did i miss something? no phone call, nothing ,ok fine w/e i call today oh yea we have the injectors but idk if it will be done, call later....::calls 7 hrs later, 5pm:: hey if i start down there now you guys be finished then ? "we dont know, we have to start the car up in 2 hrs, and then we will call you"- harold ok no prob....no phone call i call back at 8pm to find out what the deal is.... harold left for the night
***am i crazy? am i wrong in thinking that i dont plan on going back?***
i sell carpet install for a living and if itell someone 2 weeks and it takes 3 they get pissed if i tell someone it takes 3 weeks and it takes 2 i get praise, now perhaps i should know better but damn, it sure would be nice to get a decent time frame considering it is my daily driver and they know that.....::heated:: just had to vent.... maybe that early nineties pathfinder in the garage needed an emergency turbo or something
is there any laws saying i cant pay 700 bux in singles?? can they deny the form of payment? i sure would like to give them something to wait about for.... =P

dont feel too bad, i had my car down for a full year! 3 months in storage when the coolant seals went and 9 months(2 different shops) to get the motor rebuilt. What a crock of ****!!! And just like me, there are countless other owners with similar or worse stories...
guess its just part of the exclusivity of owning a rotary.
Damn i wish i could do my own motors!

Neither m'I 
I got soaking wet while working on my car trying to finish it today, and I did, woooohoooo, I'm so happy,
BUT, the huge rain storm hit me as I was trying to pick up my tools to put them away, so I didn't even get a chance to put her down from the ramps and take her for a drive.

I heard a few cars running last night....but it was late, after 12:30 or so. I took the garbage and recycle out and saw how wet the street was and decided to stay indoors also.
oh, btw we might be going up to check out a new spot across the river on Sunday night. Oops i forgot about father's day...might not happen. we'll see...
