No

Here's a picture of when I had mine installed with the engine still being installed.

 

Thats funny, then why the hell did that guy take out his whole engine?

 

When looking at the pictures all I could think of was "this is going to be expensive." Ouch.

 

Oh my God. At what point are you going to accept that this guys does not know wtf he is doing?What a mess.

 

The fact that sealant was used is unreal. Why is everything scratched?
Dude, get help.

 

What in the hell? I'm so sorry you had to go through all that crap. Clutch Doctors here in Beaverton, Oregon did the whole job in 3.5 hours and charged $330 including flywheel resurface with a diamond cutting lathe.

Hey at least you probably learned a thing or two, right?

 

This very sad I had My clutch done by mechanic that has done over 150 clutches and use to install for Clucth master and it cost me only $425 it took only 4 hour total with him taking a 30 minute lunch. If anyone is getting there clutch done and some one is stating that it will take 10-12 hours they are not an expierenced mechanic since a good mechanic can do it in four hours. The part that sucks for the EVO is that you have to remove two front wheels plus the axel . It took mecahnic working on my car 1 hour to get to clutch since he know what he is doing. The hardest part is getting transmission back in

 

OMG ... You actually let him pull your motor out? OMG ..

*drops dead*

Good luck dude .. Hope your car still works after that. ..

 

Dude, I don't know what to tell you. First, you let an ignorant back-yard mechanic touch your car. The first sign of "maybe I should go somewhere to have this done" was when he refused to read the how-to by Joe. If you have a piece of paper that TELLS you how to do something, then use it. You just let this guy completely jack up your $30,000 car, what are you going to do when he runs out of patience and starts to really rush things? I cannot believe that you were telling him how to take it apart and he would not listen, what an ignorant ***.........even if he is family.

 

OMG>.. i would cry or kick his ***...one or the other. The T/C will unbolt (6 bolts i believe) then scoot away from the tranny....then once you unbolt the tranny it will drop out underneath and the engine and T/C will stay where they are until the tranny bolts back up. I hope to god it works out cause if it goes together and then that cast aluminum piece brakes off again thats no good...get it welded professionally

 

the good part to this mess is that it will be easy for you to start upgrading while everything is out.

 

Aren't the little gold brackets on top of the engine for hoisting the engine out?

Anyway, this is a hack job like no other. It it was me, I would trade the car in the minute it was put back together. The engine and tranny are damaged and will never be the 100% again. I feel sorry for that car's next owner.

Tell me, you let this guy work on a 30k EVO with no experience with them? What a fool. Sorry.

 

Dude I am speechless, if someone did that to my car he would need to be put into the witness protection program. For the love of god what a mess, this looks like an episode of "Tim the Toolman Taylor" on Tool time. LOL

i gotta say, that's classic. Ny friend just pulled the engine/tranny out of an evo but that because we're REBUILDING it. why didn't he just rent a garage w/ a lift to do your clutch rather than f*&k your engine up?if you survive this, never let him touch JACK on your car again.

 

Yikes I hope it still runs by the time you buddy gets done with it... I wouldn't track it right away if I were you...
