dude i know how you feel honestly and i've had not quite the same but similar experience; never take your car to family members. theres a point one (owner) must learn. family is family but ya i hope you get my point lol. not usually the case if your uncle/aunty/cousin is like great where there working on mostly import cars and not just a standard car. family mechanics make like they can relate but most of the time its 2 different jobs. once you start modding a car, don't expect them to know what there doing based on if they understand your descriptions because face it, your the one driving the car. nuff said


btw. keep your subie man. just remember when it was running fresh, you liked it. sometimes your gonna get put in a sh*thole but you gotta get yourself back up.
