obviously as you post kurt and forged, us all knowing you think they are thieves and incompetent builders/tuners, this is clearly you promoting FD3S and Pineapple. Duh

The others are just random tuner shops. i got tons of nissan and suby shops, do they do rotary? would you send you're car to these shops? If anyone did any shopping around and learned a thing or two about you, they would know that is a big fuck no haha...

Damn, I used to go there back in the 80's. Glad to see he's still around.

The other shops back there was Haynes in (I think) Bellevue and another guy in the Burien/White Center who I'm embarrassed I can't recall his name considering how much work he did for me.

JM Classic Imports · 10-24-2013, 12:06 PM

lol Spam posts are funny.... No the motor is not blown. Crisco hardens when you let a new motor sit, a seal is stuck and the lard is holding it. Simple fix, but surprise, a kid with a fc and no mechanical background is having a hard time installing a new motor into a old car. That never happens. XD

Rotary Evolution · 10-24-2013, 02:45 PM

and it becomes more complicated when you are installing an engine that won't start even if everything WAS perfect.

why would assembling an engine with a material that has a shelf life and letting it sit for an extended period of time before selling that engine sound like a good idea?

you're making plenty of arguments why you think all of this is ok when you should be the one doing less typing and more to fix the issue. take a second to put yourself in his shoes, he spent $1500 for the engine, put it in, it wouldn't start, compression test came out very depressing, he took the advice to pull start it and that failed and now what? not to mention you put in the engine you bought and it started pissing coolant, the rear iron was mismatched so you needed a new sensor, you spent more to get it running than it should have taken and now it still won't run. do you think you would be happy about all those events? even i tried to give it the benefit of the doubt but when the pull start failed i think you're both up shit creek on this one.

Reclaimer Auto · 12-31-2014, 10:11 PM

Like pineapple racing as listed above?

Personal attacks are old.

I'm noticing it seems it is all business posting here. Not one post here is by a non shop owner lol

chibikougan · 12-31-2014, 10:29 PM

Hey Joe your a scammer and where banned from here once. Why are you back with a new name?

Reclaimer Auto · 12-31-2014, 10:35 PM

No. That user is not banned either. Clearly you are not holding any accurate information.

Reclaimer Auto · 12-31-2014, 10:40 PM
