Bri whats up its Jeff, just to get the facts straight:
1) brought your car in, it needed a motor - we built it for you
2) we fixed the clutch problem the car was having as half of it was sitting broken in the bell housing (no charge)
3) we didnt forget to put oil in - the drain plug fell out when you were driving
4) yes I drove out with oil etc - i dont expect any praise for that - I would hope if i were a customer someone would do that for me - the treat others how you want to be treated thing
5) i have the email from our garrett dealer saying that the turbo was failling due to hot shutdown - despite that we paid $550 to fix it for you
6) as we just found out via our convo - we need to tear down the motor again and rebuild it - free of charge for you - because of our mistake
I know this whole situation sucsk and Brian was right - he has been about as cool as a customer could be - which is why i feel so bad - which is why i have pushed to fix everything that we can for free for him
You are just stuck without a car
If i still had the silver wrx i'd let you take it buddy - sorry again but the car will be back up and running in a couple of weeks after we build the motor again for you
any other questions just call me

Yo Jeff,
yea man just a little upset but mainly because we hadn't talked yet about what
was goin on with the car and it kind of felt like I was getting blown off, but now
everythings straight. Yea it does suck..real bad, but its nice to know that you
guys there at SBR are doing all of the work to make the car right again and not
giving me the run around or pushing me down to someone else. And I know
you've been helping me out alot since this whole cluster **** of things happened
But hey I'd be glad to take that STI off your hands for a minute or two haha...It'll be in good
hands, just untill the end of next week rolls around when i hope everythings
worked out and done with on the evo... keep me posted buddy

Thanks Dave for promoting my product! I do have an HKS 30th Anniversary catback for sale and an HKS downpipe. I also have an Ultimate Racing test pipe with the. The test pipe comes with the built in CEL fix. I need to dump this stuff and don't want to ship it. I'll give you a great deal on the whole turboback. I think I paid around $650.00 for the catback, $375 for the downpipe, and I got the test pipe as a generous gift. Anyone interested, shoot me an offer. I want this stuff gone!

Evo22Lancer, sorry to hear about your misfortunes... They seems to be going around a lot lately. I know you're upset and trust me, I would be too, but the owner sounds like he cares and is taking the correct action. Good luck.
Does anyone on here drive a black X? I passed you on 28 two days ago around 3:00 by Tarentum. I was in my X and gave you the wave and the beep but you didn't see me.

Yea, i bought them right away just in case they actually had seat/section numbers so I could get the best ones, but it looks like they are all general admission so any seat is free game once you get there... maybe not igloo's not sure..
Anyways, it should be fun, prob a few thousand people will show up, plus all the consessions are open so it might even feel like a real game in person. Hell I just want to get drunk and rowdy with my friends, this will be the last time I'm in Pittsburgh for a while. It would be sweet to see the pens go all the way!

For Sale - (VIII and IX)
HKS 30th Anniversary catback - Retails for $600+
Ultimate Racing Test Pipe - Retails for $100
HKS downpipe - Retails for $375
Let me know if anyone's interested in the above. I'll give you a spectacular deal.
Mitsu polished aluminum front strut tower brace - It really looks awesome and weighs less than stock. It's also stronger. It retails for over $300. $100
HKS RS Intake - The whole kit, includes hardpipe and 2 used filters and 1 new-in-bag filter. Proven one of the best intakes for Evo's. Retails for $325 and filters are like $20 each. $130
Gruppe-S engine torque damper - Red in color (This is the revised stronger version.) Noticeable difference in shift quality especially under high load. In my opinion you get a great deal of the benefits of stronger motor mounts without any of the drawbacks! Retails for $250. I'm even going to throw in a second, yes a second, piston damper from my first version - also red in color. Make one hard and one soft and swap them out with two screws! $100
Ralliart Oil cap - A great looking piece, genuine JDM accessory from Ralliart, matches the valve cover perfectly. Retails for over $100. $40
Also, for dirt cheap or even free...
Stock exhaust manifold including gaskets unless I threw them out. It was drilled in the second runner for an EGT gauge. I have a plug if you don't want the hole.
Two stock radiator caps.
Cargo net - I found this to be one the best mods for under $25!
