Im taking the 1G first thing in the morning and he is ripping apart the front end replacing bearing hubs.. the works.... and then still dyno tuning and figuring out my knock issue with my "sleeping monster" (it has potential to be big). Alot time and effort needed and he said "YES" without the blink of an eye! Bob my thanks in advance buddy.. oh and the price you cant beat it!! Bump on awesome deals..:clap:thumbsup

So the fun began to day with a busy as shop and Bob getting a speeding ticket!! LMAO... but even through all the shit my car hit the lift first thing as promised!! bob pulled through again and made an impossible wheel bearing change happen. and then first thing tomorrow we r installing the FMIC and going for a full tune!!! bob makes it happen.. (SHHH dont tell bob but we have one more wheel bearing to change still....LOL he will find out in the morn.) and just so you know the work enviroment at the shop is top notch!!! always fun and gets the job done.. an all around good day.. lets keep it up for tomorrow and we might just be posting some good numbers from the dyno!!!

we had a press.... bob has every tool needed for just about any situation and even with the press the bearing was a bitch!! and guys remember in the process of all this work, bob is kind of showing me how to do everything the right way.. if it was just bob pulling in a car and changing the bearing he would have no issues but im the type that likes to be hands on my own car so he is kind enough to be the mentor for a lack of better words.. so when i say it was a impossible bearing its coming from me not a professional mechanic like Bob.

i 100% agree.. with the right tools anything can be done.. and so far at FIM i have never found a tool that he didnt have. so all the work that has been done to my car has been made much easier than trying to do it in my driveway!! LOL but the best tool is Knowledge and Bob knows his stuff!!! with out bobs help my car would probably still be sitting in my driveway for the past 4 months. You can have all the tools in the world but if you dont know what to do with them.. you wont fix shit!

lol... well if thats what it sounds like im sorry but i just have a big appreciation for some one who will go out of there way to help a person that needs it and will take the time to teach the me at the same time. it takes alot for a person to take that kind of time on a customer and bob would do that for any one.. As would many others on CCDSM. i have received alot of help from you guys since ive joined and i have a large amount of respect for 99% of the guys on this site. so thankyou but if you choose to describe it as man-crush you r mistaken it is genuine appreciation.
