Shall I sell my prodrive oz wheels and buy sum compomotives? Don't know what to do

Super work H, well done..

 

Was nice to meet some of you at the curburgring :-)
Speaking of wheels, after 1300 miles - most if it through maintain passes my stock silver wheels are now a rat car looking dark brown :-)

 

Hi guys, I'm going to be picking my car up from api on Saturday then got the monotonous task of running it in

 

It may be a pain, but its worth it in the long-term..

 

I'm hoping to get it all done in a couple of weeks

 

Why have u got to run it in m8 was it fuked by any chance???

Absolutely not! Tom was querying an oil consumption issue and a bit of exhaust smoke on start up. As a way of looking after a guy, who has paid decent money for a decent car, l decided that we would put a fresh set of rings and bearings in the engine to get him the deal he thought he had.

I didn't want to on cost grounds of course. But he clearly wasn't happy. So we stripped it out, honed the bores to take the glaze off, fitted new rings which gapped perfectly at 12- 13 thou across all four cylinders.

He needs about 600 miles of settling down time for the new rings to take the shape of the bores and he'll be off again.

Got it now ?

"Bit of smoke" L O L! It was like the Fog of war behind him

Great news its sorted now though

 

Is that a few trolls I see on the horizon? Surely not.

 

Your arrogance/attitude is unbelievable David.

It was actually a compliment for sorting Tom out!

 

As said above I don't really care what u have or haven't done but Tom was rite in bringing the car bck aswell!!! It was a fukin nail for good money a little smoke is a bit of an exaduration it smoked the street out when I seen it and not just when started I am however glad it's sorted now and can try and enjoy the car eventually!! It's also got a nice standard exhaust on it and no alarm which is nice I've Neva had work done by ur selves so can't comment on how good or not u are but after I seen that car I know I won't buy a car off u but ur reputation hasn't got good for no reason so hopefully that car was just a one off acurance .



Peace out !!!

 

Finally back in the WMI fold with a mica green classic uk turbo. (will get pics up soon), got a few good mods on to.
need to get stickers from H when i come back from holiday next week. So glad to be back in a scooby again.

 

Sorry. it didn't sound that way to me.

My point is that he had a problem and we have dealt with it for very little fuss.

No point in slagging off APi until we don't do something.

Ad - I doubt you were ever going to spend money at APi, so no loss really.

End.

David

 

Really looking forward to the Prodrive meet (My first WMI meet...), I'll be bringing my WR RB5 so kind of bringing the car home!
