Maybe he suffers from the classic "foot in mouth" syndrome.

Well yes I own one. I do think the quality is shitty. I've had many problems with mine. I've had the motormounts replaced multiple times. Both door panels have been replaced and they are getting replaced again. The painted panels are skim coated and cant handle a year of use (spots where paint is coming off that dosn't get touched). My breakes had a problem where they were staying applied when i wasn't touching them. There's a knock coming from the front passanger side now too. Oh yea. Spoilers loose, exhaust rattles. But i cant say the quality is crap....


I have a love hate relationship with my car....

nomoreavril

no offense man but is yours an automatic? maybe you're just not that great of a driver. if you're talking about an older gti, then yeah, i've owned one on the highway AND an older jetta 1.8t. i've been beat by an accord...who had full bolt ons and nitrous...and barely lol.

That Cobalt LT Guy

For one thing Im a big muclecar guy and Drive a camaro and soon to be a 10 sec 67 super street nova so I can drive, and yes my LT is an auto with a shift module. It was a new gti and the accord was a 2006. Im gust getting tired of the 4cyl. In general

nova we are building should be a 10 sec car. motor should be here thurs-friday. or at least thats what the shop told us this time. i dont agree with how were building it... tore up an original 67 nova ss and built it into a racecar. he shoulda done that to a normal 67 nova and built the ss back to factory specs.

Ouch u guys cut up a 67 SS car, i woulda looked for a coupe dam. Seems alot of 68-72's were drag cars too , everytime i go to the drags i always see atleast 2-3 of em. My 72 SS still has an 8 point cage in it from when i "rescued" it from the beating it was takin, without the frame tied together even . Me and my dad redid the car when i was in high school (earily 90's) , i put a 427 pump gas motor in it with a rockcrusher and used it as my daily driver for about 3 years .

So we still don't know why you're engine blew for sure. Is this right?

Spastic Chicken

So tired of the "should have restored it to stock" comment. On my hearse board where I'm a regular, I'm shunned because I have a "modified" hearse. They only like cars returned to stock. It gets like romper room over there because the stockers are babys. They whine and whine about cars on ebay going off to get modified all the time.

Modified cars FTW!

yes i am modded and they are still covering it under warranty. i say that's a plus one for chevy in this regard.

YSUsteven

Perhaps a rod or the crank, might explain the noise, you said they did top work and it didn't help, and it blew out the bottom.

the crate engine they dropped in is just pure love. now i just need a place to unload this car and get something else.......possibly german.

i didn't get ripped i never paid for anything. you apparently didn't read me correctly, not being an ass but making clear the fact that i would have given them hell had they tried to charge me.

b.t.w. how do you over rev an auto???????
