Hi chaps
This is a tale that anyone who has work done on their car should pay attention. What makes this worse is that I was a mate !
I'd bought a 930 Turbo and had various mods done to it. 5 speed box being a fairly major one, and then the car had various problems after a "prang" (see links below)
Finally I had enough of .. (email me and I'll tell you who they are) and the car went to RSR - the choice was either 9meister but RSR are alot closer to me.
THe list of bodges on the car is unbelievable.
How about removing the rear dif ? And not bothering to tell me about it !!
Or only partially bolting the engine back in and then cross threading the 4 bolts and then only screwing them in a 3rd of the way !!
The list is endless and the cost has been astronomically. In fact the crash I had was directly related to a lack of a dif.
Not happy bunny today on hearing the news about the dif - another £1400 quid I need to throw at the car.

moral of the story - probably is learn to do it yourself or just go to the best guys around.

Very sorry to hear about this Woof.
Just to clarify, neither RSR not Ninemeister were involved in bodging work.
