***Official SW Ohio Chat Thread***
So yesterday was a bad day at TIC. Found out that my brand new tc is leaking oil and I have low compression in one of my cylinders now.
I checked the fluid in the tc today,expecting it to be low cuz I got fluid all over the downpipe and driveshaft. It was not low. It was overfilled. It chugged oil out the fill hole. WTF!!!

Well Im saying goodbye to my evo of 3 years tomorrow. I got almost exactly what my orignal asking price was so Im quite happy. That was even after demodding it. I've already put a down payment on a new car and Im looking forward to a nice, more quiet/comfortable daily car. Pictures will come later next week.

It was pretty much level. It was up in the air on a lift. I'm not sure exactly how much came out, but it was alot. Like I said it chugged out for a good 10 seconds, and then a steady poor for a min. Plus I had oil all down the driveshaft and downpipe. I think this evo is cursed.

A lil update. I talked to John Shepherd today. Since there was so much fluid in the Tc, he told me to check the transmission fluid. And guess what, i think all the tranny fluid leaked into the tc. I had to add like 1 1/4 quarts of tranny oil. Ha 2 major problems at once tranny and engine. I need to go play chicken with a tree.

Ha so annoyed. So before i had all these problems to my car i ordered a set of Ohlins Stage III Road and Track coilovers. The day i found out i may have engine compression issues i tried to cancel the order, but they had already shipped. Now they are trying to charge me 20% restocking fee plus shipping. Restocking alone is $689.80 WTF!!! Maperformance is trying to talk Works down on there restocking fee. What do you think i should do? I would rather just sell them to somebody then give Works $ for free. I have not even opened the shipping box. I could just keep them, but I'm pretty sure I'm just going to sell the car.
Guys, theres gonna be a detail meet on the 19th at TiC. You guys should come out and show some love, its free to attend, 5$ if you want to eat and 15$ to eat and get detailed. It works basically like an assembly line, theres a wash station, clay bar station, polish / wax and what not. Everybody works on each others cars and knocks them out pretty quick. You obviously don't have to work your *** off if you don't want to.
Come out and show some love, I will be there, and I'm assuming Brad will be too.
