Yep. And apparently that wasn't the cause for the P2A03, and if it is, then that means there is multiple things causing the P2A03

I wouldve just postponed instead of cancelled. That would be like wanting to get an FI CBE. You saved up for 4 months, but still 300 dollars short, and settle for an Ebay special instead.

The thing is his schedule is always booked, so if I postponed it to another date it would have been a ton later, lol. Guess this is what happens when I am impatient, hardheaded and stubborn. Oh well. Used to it by now, sadly! haha.

And that's your reasoning for taking it to an inferior shop?

That doesn't make any sense...

cupcakez, next time you want to get something done half @ss, think about how much more youll end up spending, how much longer itll take, and most importantly, how safe would it really be when you hit the gas and something breaks because it was done half @ss...

You had a plan. You should have stuck with it. Even if it took you a little long to come up with the cash. Hell, I've been saving up for a set of 4 way JRZ coil-overs for a long time.
