Mine already 9 months. I did many things and the worst thing is trusting the wrong mechanic. Now my current mechanic is doing a good job. Its in Ulu Klang as well. If everything ok the car will be out another 2 weeks time and very little stuff left to do. I have trusted the wrong mechanic because that guy is my childhood friend, in the end he fxxked up my car...

Well basically i brought the car with SR20det with a broken conrod bearing. SO the previous owner was kind enough to give me a spare engine kosong and after that all the shit happened. I passed on to one mechanic at setapak and put on the engine... he asked me to do intercooler piping and also banana manifold. So i did it because it was too near to the brake. Little did i know this did not solve my problem and end up towing my car here and there. Then he did my car again and place 4 port plus a new nissan servo and they placed it wrongly and the car didn't brake. So they took 2 months doing nothing. finally i've sent it to another shop and they manage to do up the brakes. Then now i am touching up my wiring, aircon, body works, bumper and finally next week spray my car. Then all done... can drive. MORAL OF THE STORY DO NOT TRUST A MECHANIC THAT TAKES MORE THAN 2 MONTHS TO FIX YOUR CAR COZ THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO DO SO.....Now i am proud to say my car is in good hands. I am looking for a 180sx now but i will drive this car for a while.
