I've looked at all the kits and I'm not sure they have everything I need. When I talk to the local shops and mention anything other than a 80+ model of whatever they look at me like I'm speaking some lost language and have zero answers for me. Unfortuanatly I am in a new city and around mechanics that unless it starts with an asian name and sits under a 4banger and surrounded by plastic parts they have no idea what you are talking about. I took pictures and memory from the break down and showed a shop near by to take in the rebuild kit and have them peice it together and was told they wouldnt even know where to start. I wish I had the space and tools to do it myself but have found myself in the city trying to finish my project. Whats next?
