the red 97gst Eclipse, hence the user_name.

BTW Cube EXTREMELY nice FX. seen yours there plenty of times.
Thank you

Motor is still runnin smooth as ever. Have a gay vibration in the exhaust, maybe time for Borla...

I had a small leak from a remote thermostat on the oil cooler I had Ross put in. Brought it by and Ross took care of it no problem.

Is that '97gst red with black front bumper? Somewhat large FMIC? De-badged in the back? SCP or whatever sticker near the front passenger fender that was taken off and left some sticker goo behind? I was wondering if it was a Talon or Eclipse, I haven't paid much attention to DSM's in the last few years so I forget the differences in body styling. Anyways, my FX was there for ~4 months or so... you got that beat?

(btw: I plan on having my baby sit there again for a lil while for a turbo. The motor has 1k miles on it and after ~1k more, [Arnold Schwarzenegger]it's turrrbo tiiiime[/Arnold Schwarzenegger])

Tuning varies on what I am doing. PM your set-up and what I will be tuning your car with and I can get you a quote.

Well decided to take my car out of there after 6months and had it taken to Accuracy Auto and found 10 different issues, which was said should have been easily caught. Sad to say after all the money and time I spent at Precision Auto. I would not recommend them at this time. I have seen the same cars sitting in the same spot I was for months at a time and was told on incredible amount of occassions my car would be ready. There was a problem but after a day Accuracy Auto had it narrowed down and waiting for the last issue to be fixed by Dyno Inc since Accuracy had something going on that was reasonable. So out of 6 months waiting and a day for Accuracy figuring out ALL THE ISSUES neglected. I will be extremely careful for bringing MAJOR work done or even minor at this point.

well moral of the story. Ross is a good guy and definitely knows his shit BUT.....is currently backed up with cars and doesn't seem to have the help as of right now. So if you are going on a 6/7month deployment and need something done this would be fine. I still think highly of his knowledge but customer service with lies of when shit would be done or getting the shit done is pretty damn sorry right now.

:THUMPS UP: for Accuracy for resolving the issue and Dyno Inc for finishing up!

Got some news as I just got back from Langley Auto Hobby Shop.

There's a rattle in my exhaust, and I've narrowed it down to the TP region. I don't know if the insides of the TP shit itself or if it's just some rattling due to my findings.

With the Nissan / Infiniti exhausts, there's gaskets pretty much all throughout. How do I know this? I just do. How can I confirm this? I ordered all the gaskets new just a few weeks ago.

So anyways, as I did a little inspection, I found a nut completely missing at driver's side header-to-test-pipe connection.

Further findings show that the passenger side test pipe connection to the Y pipe had no gasket, but rather some orange goop shit. I didn't feel like pulling everything apart, and I'll take off the test pipes later and possibly discover more... but I'm just disappointed that Ross failed to mention there was a missing gasket, missing nut, and that the bolts/nuts were now mix-n-match.

I also have broken hood struts, but not sure if it was Precision Auto or Custom Car Care's doing.
