2) I was dead-on, 100%, absolutely correct as that poster never returned for the review (or even for another post...1 post). I call them like I see them and I called that one. It doesn't take a genius to figure it out. What say you now?

FYI: generally, someone that joins and posts simply to get a free item isn't someone with much integrity. Common sense.
The funniest part of this is I can't see where the gears were actually given away.

And if anybody figures out what a "real life" is, let me know. Clearly it's much superior to whatever I might be doing so I'm envious and want to start whatever it may be as soon as possible. Until then I'll keep posting.

this is essentially why i made the offer in the first place.

regarding "real life" i'm not trying to disparage anyone who posts on here...hell i did. but my point is that its just so typical that some guy with 3000 posts tries to intimidate people who haven't that type of time to dedicate to an online hobby.

and newbies can/do breathe new life into a stale group. yes, some are stupid questions that they might should open their owner's manual to answer. but in this case, i made an offer to take on a $1500 Porsche repair project that would cost owners less than $200 to repair if they had confidence in this product and step by step review with photos. i even started out with a before photo to demonstrate i was legit. and instead i got my integrity questioned for it...jeez, guys sounds like a fun place to hang out.

anyway, i'm posting again here and have sent PM to Mike to see if the company still wants a review, as i can't tell that they ever gave the parts away or got a review for them. otherwise i'll just ride off on my high horse with my head up its...or something like that.

So that's why you're all butthurt

My post was over 1 year ago (and I had half as many posts), so I obviously wasn't referring to you directly. That's why reading comprehension is important.

Re-read the posts several times until it sinks in.
