Well, The turbos you gave me to install looked like this. I inquired about their condition and even asked you point blank. You said you sat them on the groud and dirt might have fell into them.
Personally, I think it's the bottom end on that there engine.
So now let's be honest since you want to try and spin this... That is bearing material!
Thank you for refunding my money Bill. I'm gonna put this down for a lil bit. The more I type the more my emotions stir. I need to walk away for lil bit.
so you knew that there was bearing material in those turbos and still bolted them up to the car? and you are a "3s tech"?
why didnt you show me that pic? I would have stopped you from bolting them on the car. it was still my car you didnt finish paying for it. thats just wrong man
here is the thread that i bought the turbos from
3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

Its cool man. I forgive you. Right now I'm just glad to be home. Im gonna go to church and hang with my wife and kids. This thread will die... I'm past it. I made peace with the guy upstairs. That was all I needed to do. I could dwell on it and be bitter and angry and allow those corrosive emotions to destroy me. Or, I can redirect myself and focus on what's really most important to me. It's neither cars, nor money.
I wish you the best man.

Nope, you never offered so quit acting like you're not a stereotypical selfish New Yorker that typically only looks after themselves. You said you had things to do. I told you it was cool and I'd rent a car or take an Airport Shuttle. You never once offered to pick me up.
Okay, a 10 year old ragtag couch covered with grease and sand isn't hospitality. Seriously, that was the only piece of furniture in your house. You have a kitchen with no dishes, a couch, a MIG and a tacklebox with tools in it. I would have rather slept in a tree or dug a hole with an E-Tool and slept in it.
Seriously, you're going to sit there and play dumb. Wha wha wha... "I know Ray and Dave I've seen them do hundreds of timing belt jobs... Been an owner since 1994 and owned over a dozen 3/S's" and your going to act like you don't know this stuff? Its obsurd.
What was I going to take... your nasty ass couch? A To-Go cup? You're rusted ass sand filled toolbox?
Despite the string of dishonest events I managed to make the best of it. Had I been some broke ass college kit with a rusty nickel in my pocket it probably would have sucked.
Uhh, yaa as in it looked like it was submereged in the ocean. An you said it was a 9-10 for paint... Okay, on a scale of 1 to 30... maybe?
No you didn't... you gave me your "woe's me" story about being broke and needing the money and having already spent it. I told you I would re-evaluate my position given the operating condition of the motor. As in "I was going to make you an offer IF and only IF IT RAN". And to no surprise it didn't.
You tried to pass off a banged up, salted, rust bucket roller with a spun bearing off as a 9-10 body/paint car that only needed turbos and an ECU... You forgot to mention it was in a Hurricane, likely spent some time under water, and was being stored on a beach with paper towels protecting critical components.
Don't you get it man, that video tells it all right there. That engine was cranked in time. YOU CAN HEAR THE RODS SMACKING THE CRANK. That thing wouldn't hold time because the motor is out of phase BECAUSE IT'S BLOWN!
And you forgot to mention that you altered the Crank Sensor, AND you forgot to mention you swapped the coils, AND you forgot to mention that the spark plug wires were eaten by rats, AND you forgot to mention you removed the injectors and reinstalled them improperly and consequently caused a historical fuel geyser, AND you forgot to mention the manifolds were cracked, AND you forgot to mention you altered the grounding, and you forgot to mention the coolant lines had holes in them, AND you forgot to mention the turbos you gave me to install were filled with metal AND, AND, AND, AND...
Man, quit trying to act like I didn't bring it to your attention. You're certainly a fast talkin guy from New York. I had to wait to confirm I got my money back before I spoke for myself.
I got my money back and learned a valuable lesson. I will never purchase a vehicle sight unseen and throw money around a "to good to be true" ever again. God wanted me to learn that lesson. I have and will be more critical in the future.
I'm going to go spend some time with King James. Man, after this post I need it.
Go buy a blue box, stuff the contents of it in your bleeding holes, and take it to 3si. Same shit this time as went on last time you got in a tiff with someone. The lies always fly...
Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!

J, really sorry to hear about your experience. I took the "sight unseen" plunge myself a year ago January. Didn't quite turn out to this magnitude, but yeah it "just stopped working one day" but after some back-and-forth I gave a solid deal for it, and had it shipped. I've spent a lot of time finding and fixing things, found some weird "maintenance" in the form of a non OEM water pump with a paper board gasket, 10mm nut behind the pickup with foliage, somehow NEVER sucked it up, just a true test, but it's finally coming to the point of 100%. I'll never do one again. If you need someone that's been there done that to chat with, I'm your Huckleberry![]()
