The only credit I'll give him is that he seems to have listened and is no longer thinking that 800 whp in the Z will be easy.

I always looked at new Cupcakez posts with a mixture of anticipation and fear. The optimist in me always hoped he'd have learned to stop taking shortcuts, and to hear the good advice from forum members. The realist knew that for some people, stupidity is life long, and no lesson will cure them.

I love it when someone trying to tell me something that's just wrong. I look at them and tell them that I'm an ASE Cert Master Tech with a degree in mechanical engineering. Service departments are the best. I put many a tail between someone's legs. I bait them on for a while and let them dig a hole that they can't get out of.

I enjoy having my wife get me on the phone while they are trying to feed her a bunch of ********. Then I hand them their *** on a platter. The worst/best was one time at the Nissan dealership. Manager gave her a bunch of BS on what it would require to fix the hesitation/idling hiccup her Rogue would make. She called me and I was talking to him on speaker phone. He gave me the same story. I can’t remember all the **** he fed me, but it was obvious he was trying to score additional work because he had been dealing with a woman. I asked him to give the wife back the phone and while still on speaker I yelled, ‘Tell him to **** off and quit lying to try and get over on a woman.’ I finished with, ‘Walk out and we’ll trade the car in on a Lexus this weekend.’ She told me the looks from the other people in the waiting room were priceless. |

Combined with the price of the car is now cheap. Most of these 'people' are buying 09s with 100K+ on the clock and wanting to go fast on the cheap. There will be a metric fuckton of blown motors soon....

Limped the Z over to the shop in 2nd gear this afternoon. Hopefully new clutch and CMAK install will happen in the next week or two
I am sick of wearing t-shirts with MT-related-slogans and not having an MT to drive
