Holy cow, the worst craftsmanship i have evere seen! And the amount of time put in, man.

masraum 04-12-2009 07:02 PM

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's been posted here before, but still, AMAZING!!

That anyone thought that the work that was done to that poor thing was a good idea!?!

I was doing good till I saw the Diamond plate airbox....

Haven't them Spanish lads heard about weight?

too much to read, but I did see this video. I'm not sure this is a factory approved way to do a valve grind! I've heard of 3 angle jobs, 5 angle jobs, I guess this tops them all with basically an "infinite angle" job!

Just think if he could get 900whp @ 10k from an eclipse what he could do with an aircooled 911...

Wow for some reason I am reminded of my cousin and his buddies. Just glad he is too lazy to attempt something that major.

That thread is hilarious. When I first saw it I was saying "55 pages, are you kidding? I ain't reading through that", but then you start... And you just can't stop... It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. And it just keeps getting more and more mesmerizing...

Simply astonishing the level of Stupid that's out there.

And just think: We share the road with these people. They're out there.

Porsche-O-Phile 04-12-2009 10:59 PM

God make it stop...

This is just too priceless. This guy actually is PROUD of this thing and thinks he's the Uber Tuner McSchizzle... Wow. Just. Wow.

Well, these people exist, but due to the level of their, um, craftsmanship, we're probably not sharing the road with them as much as you might think.

Porsche-O-Phile 04-12-2009 11:08 PM

This is like a metaphor for the entire project... I'm just speechless.

If you ever needed proof that money <> brains, look no further...

I had some Spanish speaking people come into a shop I used to work at. They wanted me to put a new wheel on their van. Well the wheel came from U-Pull-it and the bolt pattern didn't match up. They tried everything to get me to drill a freaking hole so it would work. I told them no and that I didn't want to get sued when they crash... This thread reminds me of that.
