Is there some massive difference in installing a fuel pump on the Z/G platform that would make it difficult? On every other vehicle I've put one in, the hardest part is getting to it. Once it's out, it would take some effort to screw up the rest of the job.

May have not been the fuel pump install, but more-so a kinked fuel line.

ANMVQ · 11-18-2012, 10:04 PM

but the kink in the fuel line was from the install? No one ever touched till it was having lean issues.

Staples · 11-19-2012, 02:07 AM

Either way, I'm sure it was on their behalf.

On just a update car has been sitting at the dealer waiting to talk to consumer affairs. Long story short I have to part it out. $$$ issues. I can't start a for sale thread because I do not have the car. But what ever you are interested in PM me and I can send you the pics I have on my laptop. ;/ This sux azz

You should make a F/S thread over at MyG37 instead but you can't expect people to pay you first before the parts are readily available.

Sorry to hear all of this Mike, wish you the best of luck!

Sad to hear. Hope you get it sorted out and find something new to enjoy.

Staples · 11-26-2012, 12:02 AM

Damn, I'm really sorry to hear about all the headaches.

Keeping the Car?

ANMVQ · 12-03-2012, 09:45 AM

dont think so,

Hey guys really sorry I have been away for like a week, I was told by my attorney not to touch the car yet and wait to see what the dealer does. I also have been having work issue( Lost job) and had to move out of out condo and move back into our house and had to have a tenant leave( Not fun) plus some other family things going on- This year suxs.. I have everyone’s PM’s and when this gets ironed out I will contact everyone, Sorry , Please understand, Mike

SS_Firehawk · 12-03-2012, 10:17 AM

Sorry to hear. I can definitely empathize with your situation. Hopefully you'll be back on the up and up soon. Just a terrible time of year for this to happen. I remember having to ride on a 225cc dirt bike on the freeway in dress shirt and tie just to go to an interview at Fry's Electronics for a job where I made $9.50 per hour. I thought I was going to die... or get arrested. A couple years prior to that I totaled my 04 TC after 4 months of ownership without insurance. I refused to stop paying for it. Paid it off back in 2009 lol. Things will work themselves out, just dig deep and push forward. The Stealership is bound by laws, just like the rest of us.

ANMVQ · 12-12-2012, 08:53 PM

Ok update guys,.

All the CF but the hood is sold, Local guy bought it all. I am seriouly busy( Woking and packing to move) now to ship stuff. I have the wheels and spacers at my house, They are in perfect shape- A looked them over when I got them. As I havent seen the car in 6 months a was worried as the rear diffuser was cracked( Some one hit the car)? And the dealer had a small crease on the spoiler from taking it off, Anyone who wants to the wheels just let me know. We can set something up I can drive to meet you some where if not crazy far, I can not ship the wheels sorry TOO big.

I'm also picking up the exhaust this Saturday with the hood. The SC is coming off next week, So guys let me know if anyone wants it. I have been talking to Stillen about them posiably buying it back , I will package everything together if someone buys it, SC kit Heat exchanger and injectors, and DW300 pump. I will be looking at what I have for boxes also if guys want the heat exchanger, injectors or DW pump. BTW the pump comes with a brand new in box install kit.
