OH MY GOD!, Argh! I hate my mechanic! Options

[Coomer]

So on Sunday I drove my car to my mechanic's shop so that I could do my clutch install myself in his garage using his tools, since I no longer have any tools because they got stolen. This was the same mechanic who did my swap, but I had no intention of having him touch the car. Well it turns out that I'm 100% completely mechanically retarded...at the end of the day I didn't even have both axles out of the car.

And since it was in the shop's main bay and my mechanic had to have it out of there and I had to work, I couldn't continue on it and had to pay him to do my clutch installation. So I got my car back today and took it for a drive...it is now so screwed up it's ridiculous. Now I have to hold the wheel ten degrees or so clockwise to drive straight!

I also have a new paint chip on the side of my door from my mechanic hitting the door with something, and my front brakes squeal when I come to a stop. It's so ridiculously sick how retarded my mechanic is. My car was fine except for a bad throwout bearing due to my mechanic being a retard and using the wrong one on my tranny. Now it doesn't drive straight and my brakes squeal.

I just don't even know what to do anymore...my car used to be nice...now look at it...it's a piece of garbage...I don't even think I could sell this car anymore.

Thanks everyone for all the support and kindness.

After talking to my dad, he just said that my mom was out of control and that I should stick around and stuff, so I'm not kicked out as of now, which is good.

When I found that out today I went out and bought a slave cylinder and replaced mine, and that helped my shifting problems a little bit. I also got an accessory belt and put that on, so now I've got my power steering back, which makes the car feel so much more tolerable. I'll probably get an alignment early next week if the 'rents will lend me a bit more money, and hopefully that'll solve the steering wheel problem. The brakes still squeak, so I'll have to look into that soon too.

Oh, and I finished breaking in the new clutch today, and the car feels great with it...not much slower up high with the heavier flywheel, but a lot faster down low, which is very nice. Unfortunately, the quick shifts were better with the JUN flywheel, but oh well, there has to be a trade-off somewhere.
