How do you guys calm down after working on your car and realizing 70% of the parts you got dont fit
Getting pissed, my deadline is comming up quick to have this car ready, many places sent me wrong parts, parts that dont fit, forgot to send parts... I am really pissed at one place I bought something from but that will be another thread... really pissed and cant even go beat on my car cuz its all apart.. **** hondas... **** turbos... I think im going to bed; sorry for the usless thread.

I find it VERY hard to get good service from anyone anymore. My best luck with any parts is from cheapo brands on Ebay. It's sad some of the people who setup online shops can't deal with small customer service issues and get people the correct parts, in a timely manner. The joys of building a car.

Re: (1700anddroping)
lol the "walk away" as me and my friends call it.
every now and then you gotta get out from under neath the car and do the walk away, clear your head, think about it and calm down. once you calm down and change the way you're looking at the problem it usually comes together.
lol, the walk away.

40oz. of the blue bull will do the trick . Sleep it off dude and clear your mind. Bad decisions are made and corners are cut when people are frustrated. Ask me how I spun my first rod bearing

One reason why I started building whatever parts I had the ability to do. I just get frustrated when i get alot done and then look at the car and think...****...I'm not even 1/2 way done yet and need more parts....Thats when i do "the walk away" then I will go on the computer order more parts, go out have some intoxicating beverages and then yes...the poontang...just don't drink too much, this has negative effects on the quality of the poontang that you wake up with the next mouring...

Re: How do you guys calm down after working on your car and realizing 70% of the parts you got dont
What I love is buying a part, having nothing to do while its in the mail, being too busy once it arrives to test it, then finding out (when you need it running the next day usually) that it doesn't fit.
Luckly my bro has a $50 beater civic now, I just go beat on it. And I don't mean drive it Sometimes I feel like the guy in my avatar...
Honestly, having the garage 100ft from the house helps, after walking in/out of the house for a drink, I've calmed down a lot. Walking it off = , ***** =

I started putting on my kit and after about 2 hours, checked the oil return line. I realized the kit forgot to throw in an oil return flange. Then the company told me " theres no such part". Turboing a honda is very stressful, at least the first time around.
