The shop he speaks of is easy to find. I am down to lend a hand but someone please send me a PM a day before so I remember. I dont come on here all that much and I may actually be getting rid of my FD. I don't want to but kind of need to. Oh well.

And the only experience I have with Majestic went like this:
(ME) Hi, Id like this lip spoiler re-cleared and glued on
(MM) Ok no prob, that'll be 585$ and take two weeks....
(ME) Well I don't really like the lip spoiler so bye!

They are more into domestic stuff from what Ive been told. Can't knock a shop that opened that large of a shop. They are doing something right, but then again the majority of their customers don't know their *** from their elbows when they pop the hood.....

Dude don't sell your FD! Only seen it once but it looked sick, some guy just offerd me his truck and 500$ for my POS rx7 and I asked him if he knew anything about rotorys and he asked me what the hell I was talking about lol, there are to many idiots out there who want to kill rotorys.

Depends on how much you want to spend. You can probably get the lines from Atkins or himni or used on Ebay. Are you just talking about the oil feed and return lines?

I dont know for sure, but i think I might call it off due to me not having the funds for the cookout plus i dont have all the parts to get the car actually running. What do you all think, should we get it together, and finish another day, or do it all at once and actually get it started?
