supershannon77's tranny issues and fix (formally RJB23's car), JDM guy on the job, pics included!! Options

[supershannon77]

So....the car is running so much better once we get those few parts it should be much better. Manny and Jeff both will need to look over things bc we all think that the car was done in a rush and things were just slapped on. Thats why i want everyone to know even if the car looks beautiful do the swap urself.

Hey.... Steff, Tina, and Jenn wanna let u no that there is a new women in this EC6gc Crew and I am ready to take the role on!!!


Thanks again for all those who helped out...I look forward to making my car better one thing at a time!!!

I could not have done it with out 6GC!!!!

this kind of thing is why i worry about selling my car. i want to make sure the next owner is prepared to own a swapped car. which it seems like shannon is (or atleast has incredible help from EC6GC).

it makes me nervous to imagine my car going through such strife a few months down the line.

As long as your honest and properly disclose any issues, you won't have problems.

unfortunatly, that wasnt the case here.

Ok I've had about as much as I can take of this.

First off manny and Jeff you guys are both making assumptions based on one side of the story. You guys need to talk to the other side before you make assumptions and post them all over the internet and run your mouths to everybody.

The car when it left my possession was in great shape! The wheel falling off was not my fault, the wheels that are on the car (rims) are not the same ones that were on the car when the car was sold, if that gives you an idea of how well the car has been taken care of for the past 4 or 5 months. I had the car for over 2 years I had zero problems with the brakes at all and the calipers were never removed by me. The rear brakes were perfectly fine when it was sold I never had a problem out of them. The tranny shifted absolutely fine, with the exception of it being a little difficult to shift into reverse because of the short shifter (it was the same way with the stock st tranny). The rear mount that you guys are complaining about was fabbed by a shop that specializes in swaps, and imports the same shop that did the exhaust called auto lab here in ky. I drove the car on the swap for almost 2 years and not one time did I have a single mechanical problem with it, with the exception of the alternator dieing from normal wear and tear.

Neither you or Jeff can say what has been done to the car since it has left my possession. To assume that all these problems existed before the car was sold is not only ignorant but pure bias on Jeff and Manny's part. Yea its nice that you guys helped them out, but there is no telling what has been done to the car in the last 4 or 5 months while it has been in their possession.

Being mods you would think that you would be a little more careful about the things you say on here, but I guess being a mod just means that you can say whatever you want and get away with it, whether it is the truth or not.

[coldbluesteel]

Well when buying any used car you can't expect it to be perfect. So you should always go over the car really well, or a pro if you don't know a lot about cars. Even then things break. Blaming the guy who owned the car before may not be totally fair. I don't know anyone involved so I won't pass judgment, but it is possible the car could be a lemon, or the new owner just drove the wheels off... literally.

this has nothing to do with them being mods or anything like that. they (as well as other people) where there in person when these things happened and they are giving their side of the story.
