I did the same thing only to waist $60.00 in gas after he sold me the wrong parts also. Just take them back for a refund.

BladeX

technically shipping is cheaper isnt it?

should be around $20-25 to ship that thing

I shipped a joystick was only $24 and a joystick cant be much heavier than that

short ram right??
right angled rubber that goes from pipe to intake??

what's the problem? what's not lining up?

FAREELVY2XLR8

The problem with the pipe, it's not made for my 01 civic.

if i put the pipe properly, then i can't close the hood .

it's there fault! they have to pay for the shipping i think

$60 in gas??? who what are you driving? it takes me 1hr to get there and $5 in gas.

imported_gatherer

how many gallons to the mile do you get???

it's always best with aftermarket parts to go to the companie's web site and get the correct part number

MystixEL

$5? i dont think that little, it takes around half a tank to get there and half to get back. So i say around 25$ depending on how u drive

imported_gatherer

wow ...what sort of fuel are u guys runing ...I went to lake huron in the summer on the cheap stuff and used only half a tank...compared with that Automotive warehouse is around the corner

imported_1sicsol

89 turbo probe. 87 octane, 450 hwykm@48 litre tank.

And Im about 1 hour form you.....
making it almost 2 hr drive there...

Went there
came back
went there returned part
went back
$60.00
Good luck.

imported_loudsubz

Yeh $5 there, $5 back so a 2 hour round trip cost me $10 on 87 ctane at around 75 cents a litre.

I know ive done the calc before.

NoSpleeny

wow! What kind of car do you drive to get that kind of mileage?!

From Toronto to Niagara Falls (or close).. in $5! Holyyyyy...

it costs me $3 just to get from my house to downtown and back. 46 km round trip

PULOVR

Nope....cheaper.

ie.....to ship the R1 coilover kit here, was told it would be around $10 - $15.....and the coilovers are waaaaaaaaaaaaay heavier than that intake. It's a flat rate courier company that they use.... I beleive.

The next time I need to get something, and I don't feel like going out there, I'll just give the cash to somebody that IS going there.......or.....I'll get it shipped here. I can wait a few days.

Now, if I was heading down to the falls to spend the day with the Misses, I would stop by....pick it up.....then continue on my way to the falls.

I just don't have to time to go down......but if the weather keeps up the way it has been, I might be up for a cruise.

BladeX

yea

i cant actully believe you guys would drive that damn far for so little...

maybe you guys should do a cruise to niagra falls, pick ur stuff up and go to the casino, do some gambling but have a limit

NoSpleeny

True! Make it worth your while!

imported_gatherer

gambling evil ... bad evil evil evil stuff.... (as long as keep telling myself that I will be ok...no more 10Grand losses)
