WTB: B-series bolts ASAP!
-
Well I went to Tintmasters yesterday and they let me dig in their bucket of bolts and got almost all the bolts I needed. I got the size of the breather bolt off of the parts catolog so I'll be going to scheels to get that one. Thanks for the help guys.

Lol if you would have ordered the bolts from corwin when you started this thread you would have had them already and theyd look good

QFT...Spend 2 mins talking with them and you would have had them.I've talked to the people at corwin before, I'm pretty sure that it would take at least an hour for them to find a transmission bolt... Last time I went in there and asked for a 2000 Honda SI valve cover bolt, and they asked me if it was automatic or manual..... Fail. Oh and they've ordered the wrong parts twice for friends of mine.
I was just please with Tintmasters for the first time so I thought that I'd write that up.

Oh and they've ordered the wrong parts twice for friends of mine.I do agree that sometimes the questions they ask you bring up the question "what the fuck.." but it is all apart of the work flow they follow to find it. I seriously doubt it would have taken them more than 5 mins to find the bolt you need...
Unless of course you go in there and say "I need 2 or 3 transmission bolts" and expect them to do 100% of the work to figure out what bolts you are talking about.

Corwin is a bunch of incompetent retardshey now. take it easy.
the parts department can have a hard time sometimes but it really doesnt help when you have uneducated people coming in asking for random bolts for d15 this but work with a b18 from acura swap and a mini me head from a EX for this with a obd1 conversion for a non vtec. its jiberish to them. these guys work at the dealership they ask what transmission it has becuase thats something you HAVE to answer in the computer to look up parts. they dont need it to find a valve cover bolt they need it to access the car at all in the system

This is true, did you get mad when the computer asked you to specify model, year, transmission at mejestic? I think not.
And if your so incompetent that you can't explain to someone in "dealership" terms they understand then you are the one that failed. Vtec solinoid is a "spool valve" for instance these are things that you pick up on because vtec solinoid is a internet "buzz word" not the real parts name.

Hey look. This took me 46 seconds to find.
Now is it the right diagram? I have no idea, you didn't explain at all what bolts you are looking for. If you seriously could not find the part you were looking for on that site then we all should be really surprised that you are even making posts on this site.

Its funny when i ordered all new hardware for my entire engine including trans bolts and motor mount bolts and every other bolt i just printed diagrams off majestic, highlighted the numbers i wanted, and brought them to the parts desk.

I can totally understand this... we have to ask questions like this followed by getting bitched at by the customers, since they dont know the answer to it...

45 min to order a del sol B16 mount? you fucking retarded?

Ok for one the ONLY Bseries mount that would fit a eg would be a del sol b16 mount, just basing it off everyone having one and putting a b in them. seriously do you not know what motors come in what car and how to cross reference parts? It's your fault it took that long so don't tell others they suck, when you didn't help them.
I tell them to turn the screen and i point out what i need. takes very little time.
I sure your also the guy that orders a 99 si "vtec soleniod" gasket for obd0 b series motors. huh? Then leter to find out that shit don't fit for shit. and ends up getting the nsx one from tintmasters because looking for info on the internet is hard.
Not hating on tintmasters so don't even try guys.

Actually he was ordering parts from a 00 si FOR a 00 si.. No cross referencing
I eventually showed him what he was doing wrong and then got the right part
