After making a bunch of phone calls to everyone and anyone who would listen at the dealer and at Toyota/Scion they're trying to expedite my missing parts. There's a possibility my car could be back together on the 5th or the 6th (as opposed to the 10th). I disparately would like to have my FR-S back for a car control clinic in my area on the 7th.

While I was there last Wed I took some pictures which might be of some interest...

"Broken" Cam Gear lot and serial numbers


"Broken" Cam Gear top


"Broken" Cam Gear bottom


My engine with the new passenger side Cam Gear installed, timing cover removed (waiting for new O-rings)


The car has been at the dealer for 24 days total, there's 11 "business" days left before I can (and might) Lemon Law the my Asphalt FR-S. Reading some of these posts with 7-14 day repair times are making me very angry...
