Moment of triupmh.
so i actually have quite the little story to tell. my ej20 sti swapped 94 impreza wagon was stolen in about october of 2012, when i was just kickin it at my homies house playing video games one night. in the eastlake neighborhood in Seattle. my hope was completely gone, i had accepted the fact that my car was more than likely chopped up and sold in pieces to all the sleezebags around my area. i was already saving for a new car.
and then a detective called me about two months later, and said they had recovered my car, in a whole, sort of driving condition and that my car was involved in a big chop shop felony investigation, and they also had the mother****er and were bringing up 18 other charges of grand theft auto and several other robbery charges. needless to say, i just about **** my pants with excitement. this ******* was going to be locked up for a while, no way around it. so i go to get my car back and also needless to say, it's all sorts of molested. this dude bought a bunch of terrible autozone parts like new ****ty fog lights, an alarm that wasn't even installed, HIDs and some other stuff, all of which looked like it was wired by a retarded 7 year old with some headphone wire.so we just tore all that **** out. i could write a whole other post that would be like an essay just on the **** that this stupid ******* did to my car, and about how me and my buddys have been spending pretty much all of our time when we are off work under the hood fixing and/or undoing and/or replacing things and trying to figure out exactly what the **** he did to my car. ANYWAYS all that negative stuff being said, i am however much more acquainted with my engine, and justice was served. and my car could have been chopped up much much MUCH worse, which is what i initially expected had happened. i do however think we have narrowed it down to a few different things that are the reason for it running terribly, and i feel that we are pretty close to getting it daily drivable again. all in all, i am extremely glad i have my car back, and if anything, this is just going to be an excuse to slowly rebuild my engine like i wanted to anyways Last edited by spencern; 02-09-2013 at 01:51 PM. |
