think ive been done
I have an R34 gtr vspec and in december i have had a bottom end rebuild with uprated internals, new turbos, cams,pullys,ecu,etc etc etc, i spent £8000 with this company, i wont say who did the work, the only problem is it started overheating in january just after it had done 1600 miles so i took it back, i new the head gasket had gone but they insisted on checking everything else first, i new it was the head gasket because there was exhaust fumes in the header tank and the header was preasurising, they told me the first time they rebuilt it they didnt have the head skimmed as you dont need to with RB26! is this normal? any way they finaly discovered it was the head gasket that had gone, they did the work including getting the head skimmed this time, all in all they have had the car 3 months, i collected it and now they have told me i must pay the full repair bill which comes to £1200, £400 is for labour! surely this is wrong as i only had the car working 3 weeks, what should i do as they are pushing me to pay a bill which in my eyes is there responsabilty?
