Definitely…must be real hard to say NO politely, F-off aside…especially if he’s got some imaginary gun to you?(sarcasm)

Sourcing stuff kicking around, $1750 later the end result…

Clearly you didn’t know enough about the CA to actually take the swap and do it properly rather than waste time for making mistakes from your learning and having him pay for it, but money talks…what’s wrong with a KA fuel pump? why an SR one? for a CA?!

Why did you then?! it’s too late now.

Well, you guys definitely went against your word, after all that, and you still went through with it. I can see why now S13’s and 240’s aren’t and shouldn’t be your target market.

honestly, I’m sure he wasn’t looking to make his car like yours. Just a running CA and a proper swap, no one gives two shits about hearing the “mintness” of your car.

That’s right there…now step up, and make the right changes, to rid of all the wrong.
