Default Fuel to the Fire for all you Corvette Guys....

Please no bashing of my cars as there's plenty of threads all over here already....

Dropped my 09 GT-R off at the dealer on July 28th....took my tech and Nissan engineering 7 weeks to figure out what I told them from the get go.....car needs a new tranny....finally got it back last week and runs great....Nissan sent me a check for $2000 for my troubles though....

Not 2 days later I spun a rod bearing in my 09 ACR....3600 miles on it.... they have to pull the engine and ship it to Arrow Engineering for a rebuid....word is they do a great job on them and it will be as good as new....

Not having great luck as of late but in the grand scheme of things they're only cars and in today's world there are more important things to worry about....

expect the ACR to come back with more power than it had before, Arrow does an excellent job, and they always make more power. So atleast you'll get a faster car back for your troubles.
