So the wheels came in. Chau did a quick test fit for me and everything seems to be working out. The wheels clears the suspension by 1 inch he reports. Should be good with the tires installed.

You can have your struts back btw, I'll give them to you when you actually show up at an autox.



Why?



I was just kidding actually... I'm not going tonight either way. I would be down for the beater meet sometime, but we should plan it a little better (I need to get some stickers first).
Thanks, that reminds me. I need to get my AMS sticker and put it on the back window. Or maybe put it up on the driver's side bottom corner of the hood like a baller. On the civic.

She was just a beard. I guarantee he was spelunking into one of his teammates. Sorry Andy but you need to know the truth.

See that's a dead give away. The second strike is that he likes to play with *****. I bet he's all into fashion too right?

Fred Beans mitsu sucks!

I needed to get that wheel bearing today in order to get it installed by tomorrow and make my track day on Thursday. Called up Beans and spoke with a guy named Scott who assured me they had the part and it would be on the delivery truck to me by lunch time. 4 pm rolls around and I call just to check, after sitting on hold for 10 minutes I got a different guy on the phone who said "yeah, it left here on the truck @ 10:30, you should have it by now".

I got to the shop @ 4:30 only to find out no bearing was delivered today. Called Beans back up, get Scott on the phone who tells me "oh, not sure what happened, but it never made the truck." I was like WTF!! So I told the dude I NEED the part and he tells me they close @ 5pm, but he'll have it waiting at the NAPA counter for me. I asked Scott "are you sure it will be there", he said "yeah I promiss". So I head home grab the wifes car and race up to NAPA before they close @ 6pm. Sure enough, I get to the counter and the guy says there is no part in stock... what a fu(king tool bag. I wanna punch that guy Scott in the ***** right now so bad. I wasted half my afternoon calling and driving around for a part that didn't even exist. I'm gonna call them up tomorrow and rip him a new a$$Hole.

I KNEW I should have asked the guy to put his hands on the part before i went up there. I'm almost as mad at myself for not doing that as I am at them. Why does everyone I interact with when it comes to cars have to be a complete moron?

If you can't tell I'm a little pissed right now.
