I think U12 2nr was being sarcastic there....there is this unspoken or written "rule" that I dont feel like explaining. Just for your update....Adam emailed me like 2 days ago saying that he will return my money sometime in the future. I dont know when and it really pisses me off. My worst fear is that he file for bankruptcy and Im just screwed.

at least its been put out in the open for the masses to decide if it was appropriate viewing material for themselves.

I've decided to send my wiring harness out to Justin (JJ240), a former employee of AfterDark. He said he's the one who did the wiring jobs for Adam.

Also, I'll be going through the motor to make sure everything is cool. Basically, I'll be backtracking and doing pre-swap prepping with the motor in already in there. I'm going on the assumption, nothing was checked or replaced. I already noticed I'll have to bang out a dent in the oil pan (it's not big, but better safe than sorry).

Hopefully I can get my car back on the road soon!

slw240sx... I totally agree with you, the forums should allow the users to decide what they want to censor.

Good for you. Did you pay him for any services? If so, then you are a lucky one.

We don't need any sarcastic comments, fighting, or arguments started over this issue. All involved parties should stay in the loop. The rest should watch and not comment.

This past weekend, I went to check the fuel pump to see if that was working ok, and noticed the area around it, or the cover, appeared to be untouched at all. That leaves me to believe if I did get my car back running, and I opted to up the boost a little bit, I would've run into some serious problems!

Yes, this is another thing to add to the list of what I need to get. So far, I've ordered new spark plugs, new gaskets, thermostat & soon a fuel pump. i have yet to find out if the motor mounts I've paid for are in there, or if the ACT clutch is actually in there. I'll have to wait till I actually get the car running to find out.

Point of this is... is if anyone does get there car back completed, or halfway done, I would suggest going back and doing a pre-swap preperation, checking & replacing things if you could. At this point, it's better safe than sorry.

Sorry for the whining.
