Mechanics

[Clown]

Time for some dodgy story's!!

 

 

The ex had taken in her mr2 to a mechanics, this was after i said i wouldtn' bother because they wont be able to help. Her car was having problems with the supercharger, i got her to take it to a mechanic so i coudltn' be blamed if something went wrong fixing it.

Anyways to cut a long story short i get a phone call as I'm walking outa one of my tafe classes...... its the mechanic ringing up to find out how the s/c works :jamie: after which they said they'll just make it so its permantly on. I get home to find out that the s/c has stoped working again.

 

 

Now for a further bit of info........... these guys do engine conversions and stuff :dance:

another one for you...

 

my best mate just spend 6G getting an engine rebuilt,( @ a preformance engine place)

 

1. He got special high reving cams made and had the computer programmed to suit these cam's ...after they rebuilt the engine the car would not hold idle.... I told them to up the idle until the car kept idle... they said they could not do that because the car had efi. they took the cams and new computer out of the car.

 

Does that make sence to anybody??? well not me.. you need to up the adjust the idle to suit cam's.all the computer did was alter the fuel air mix.

 

2. His gearbox blew up two weeks later.. they did not put oil in it.. WTF!!!

 

3. He got a head specialist to retorque the head after the run in period and they told him the head had not been touch, and if it had the old parts had been reused..

 

 

btw they even ask my mate where the computer went...

keep in mind the was a mark3 Suziki GTI swift.. the most done up car in australia..

My mechanic here in Adelaide is fukn awesome :D

 

I took my falcon in for a service and tune cos it was using heaps of fuel, and being the lazy person that i can be sometimes, i couldnt be bothered with doing it myself this time.

 

Anyway, my trip computer was sayin i was using between 14-15L per 100km's.

 

I've since got the car back, and its sweet as. I'm gettin 11.5-12L per 100km's now and he even rewelded my swaybar mounting point back onto the car, which had snapped off (no wonder it was whacking the underside of the car on a hard launch and quick gear changes)
