So you want to talk about class? Okay, how about a certain forum member that you call classy sells his M3 CSL right after he finds out it has subframe cracks, but he neglects to tell the new owner. Instead, he sells it to him at full price with a smile on his face, knowing full well the time bomb he has just left in the hands of the new owner. You call that class? I call that dishonest, and if that is the type of person you are defending, then it says a lot about you Splint.
You keep talking about venomous tongues, but here you are spewing false information about me yourself.....
You keep insulting me, yet I have always addressed you without any name-calling. You hardly know me, but if you did, you would have known that most of the things I post is usually light hearted tongue in cheek type of comments. You decided to make them personal.
You accuse me of being a keyboard warrior, yet I am all for speaking face to face. I am a firm believer in not hanging one’s dirty laundry out in public either. So sure – I would love to speak to you the next time we see each other so we can both set the record straight. Heck, lets even include Burgy so I can get the story from all 4 corners.....But, I have no interest in entertaining the other cheerleaders which there seem to be no short supply of.
I actually decided when this thread was split to just ignore it, because you are clearly on a mission, but since you decided to tackle my integrity, you leave me no choice to respond and defend myself.
Regarding the CSL - You don’t even know the person whom I sold my CSL to, neither do you know what has been said between myself and the buyer.
For your info – I sold that car, because I needed a bigger deposit for a house. I told the buyer that should he ever decide to sell the car in the future, he should contact me first, because I would really like to have it back IF I have managed to financially recover by that time. 3 years later he failed to do so, but that is a story for another time. Now you tell me – If I was so eager to dump my POS upon an unsuspecting buyer, why would I ever want it back if the deal was not transparent?
You want juicy details.... Here is another..... Not only was I aware of the subframe crack from day one, but the car hit a pavement before I got it. And even though I managed to fix most of the damage, the rack & pinion still had play. I also disclosed this to the buyer. You can believe it, or you don’t have to. But I was there, and know what was said – you weren’t.
Was the subframe and the rack an annoyance and costly repairs? Yes it was.... Did it put me or the buyer off from wanting to own the car??? It sure didn’t.
Getting back to the original message why this thread was split.. “You planning another engine rebuild anytime soon?”
You hinted at the chance of re fitting a supercharger to your car. I jokingly responded with the mindset of – “you have seen what happens, why would you do it again”? Your car is now running (hearsay) – Why would you put that in jeopardy by installing a SC again?
Yes I removed my response 1 minute after posting, because when I looked at it in retrospect, I did re-think about what it said, and the context in which it can be seen. This made me change my mind, and I tried to remove with the hope no one had seen it. So yes – It was in bad taste, and for that I apologize.
For my views and beliefs about the aspiration of an S54, I won’t apologize.

I'm sorry but I see absolutely nothing wrong with Crash's retaliation to something that he thought was a dig at him.
If that was intentional from Koppie, then he deserves the backlash from Crash.
If it was a legitimate misunderstanding, then both apologize and move on

Yeah very true! I guess it needs to start from the staff and work its way through the members. When staff are fueling the fire, whats the point of being grown up (uhhmm) about it...
Arbee – We have had our differences in the past as well, and thankfully we managed to work through them. I agree wholeheartedly with you that some of the remaining staff here ^^^^ should learn to grow up instead of constantly stirring and adding fuel to the fire.
The mere fact that this thread exists as a separate thread, points to the fact that some can’t wait for the opportunity to place me in bad light.
