why you may ask..... i shall explain.

 

Ive owned several sports cars in my past and enjoyed them all, if they went wrong id stick em in a garage and get them sorted. if they needed a service i would stick them in a garage and get them done.

 

then i bought a 300zx, it was a basket case but i didnt know,i got her serviced and payed an fortune all of mymoney at that time. then the gbox went and the 1000 bill to sort was far more than i had.

 

shunter said to me get a gearbox and he would fit it. i got a gearbox and we spent the weekend in his back yard with axel stands and jacks installing my gearbox into my zed. the box turned out to be as shite as the one before but there is a big point here.

 

suddenly i has the confidence to at least attempt some work on my car without resorting to a garage. I started low with an oil change and felt so chuffed with what i had done. i then had a go at fitting my bumper myself and again i was chuffed with the result.

 

since then i service my own car,my wifes car and my work car myself saving a fortune. Ive replaced the suspension on both a carlton and a citroen xantia, ive fitted dump valves,koyo rad, electrical guages, boost controllers and rear seat belts.

 

this not may sound much,but before i could not even put up a shelf.

 

people like shunter are the reason im still here,i hate the crap posts about *****x,but 1 thing this site has over anything is knowledge and it rubs off.
