This might be a little long but I need to vent a little...
So about mid March I put my supra in the shop to get the powersteering rack and timing belt changed. I figured since it was gonna be in the shop I might as well get a tune up and get my newly acquired LSD put in too. So the guy tells me it'll be about a week or two and cost no more than $1000. So I was like what the hell, go for it. Two weeks pass, the guy keeps giving me BS excuses as to why the car isn't done and keeps doing crap to the car that I didn't ask for. The only reason I put up with it is because my dad takes all of his cars over to this guy and they're pretty close, my dad trusted him 100% so I did too. Any way, a freaking month and a half later (yesterday) I get my damn car back and the asshole had rewired what I had already rewired!! So after fixing my wiring back I found out that my brake lights didn't work anymore, (I had JUST freaking fixed them before I put the car in the shop). So I spent all of last night and most of today working on that with my dad. Finally figured out I just had to resolder an element in the Lamp Failure module and BOOM my lights worked again. So I was sooooooo freaking happy that I finally had my car in driving condition and everything was working so I wanted to go cruising and so I did. My mom wanted me to stop at the store for a couple things so I did and when I come out to start my car...nothing. The damn alternator is shot now, WTF!!! BAHHHHHH!! Not only that, but I had to clutch kick my car to get home and my dad was pushing me from behind in his truck so I could get a good rolling start and now my bumper is all jacked up. I am soooooooo pissed off right now, but I love this car too damn much and remembered why I loved it so much when I drove it, so I think I'm gonna take a little break from the car, build up the funds again and then go at it again. Sorry for the long post again, just needed to get it all out. :aigo:
