Message	because my story sounds identical to yours, but I had already graduated and it still sucked. School or not, a defective Z32 is a handful. I wanted Bob to find one with a good history by a tt.net educated owner so he could avoid what happened to us. When i bought mine I was thinking more about color and options, not compression specs and maintenance. (as embarrasing as that is to admit) I payed royally... no one should have to go thru that much work to get the car back to nominal. When getting Zcon tires mounted, I had this doozy... Tireguy: [looking at emblem] Is this a Twin Turbo? Me: Well, yea. Tireguy: Awesome! How much boost do you run? Me: 14-15 ish. Tireguy: Cool. On both? ROFLMFAO I'll be there in electronic format =).
