Progress of rebuild
(As you can see I edited the thread) I just had a bit of problem with the rebuilder not getting back to me, been 2.5 weeks so far and I have not been notified with anything.
Over the phone before the day I dropped it in he said 2 weeks, when I dropped it in he changed it to 3 weeks. Now, no update on anything. Went down last week to see how it went (see pics on my F22B1 SOHC thread).
Your opinion:
1. Call him right away to ask what's going on?
2. Wait like a sitting duck?
3. Take a bit of a drive to the work shop (a bit north of perth) and just show up without notifying?
The guys is kinda a *****, called him last week and he doesn't seem to like talking on the phone.

Re: Progress of rebuild
Id be over there asking about the ETA of when its going to be done. Your paying for his labor which = his time working on it.
If my paint guy takes 2 months instead of 2 weeks like he said, best believe the labor would be discounted unless there were major complications.
Goes with any type of automotive work.

Re: Progress of rebuild
I appreciated your input guys. Went there on friday, engine is assembled (about time) and LSD is fitted to the tranny (took a furken week to just to this). flywheel and clutch is not in yet and engine bay still empty. The eta is 3/4 way through this month, just pisses me off how he said 2 weeks (to pull me in) and when I dropped it in he changed to 3 weeks. Note: my car wasn't being worked on when I was there. Expected to install the engine this monday and get it back this wednesday or thursday.
On Friday, I went to get driveshaft as well from a cv joint shop for $470 (assembled with oem parts). The rebuilder wanted $630 to supply me inner and outboard joint so screw him and I got my own one.
any other inputs in your experience regarding this thread is welcome!!
