Starting a new and official thread. Jason has offered his place for us to do some installs once again on Saturday July 19th. So peeps, please list the installs/maintanance jobs you would like to do so we have an idea of how long we will be and who will go first.

BTW, I'm going to be at the install day late...picking up a set of used Azenis from Erik (ludikris on PO) to autocross in the rest of the season. Why am I buying a used set, you ask? There's a national shortage on Falken Azenis, since they are THE hot tire to get in the street touring classes in autocross. Soooo, I'm going to go to Nationals with this set (and a lightweight set of 15" rims...hmmm...new thread).

Falken really does seem to be hot right now, especially the Azenis. I think they're great tires.

Yep...at the National Tour event last weekend, nearly all the street touring cars had Azenis (me and 3 other people between the 30+ drivers in STS/STX were the only ones NOT running in Azenis...selling my Kumhos, BTW).

I'll have my Neuspeed short shift adapter on Monday the 14th. I'd like to install it. If someone has time to help me with it we could do it in an hour. Maybe me & Jen can work on it - Keith, Jason and James are gonna be busy. Whatdya think Jen?

Don't forget about the CF trims Chris. And Laura can help you out. She's pretty good with tools too.

Chris

I forgot about Laura being here. That'll be great! I'll go by Huey's and get some extra clips for the doors.

Chris, if you get in touch with me during the week (next week), I can help install it for you. Wednesdays are the only night I'm not free (dance class).

Bahhh.. save it for install day. It's not going to be a long day anyhow.

Jen sent another email last night...looks like you weren't on her list...AGAIN! She also mentioned that we're still going to have a meet in Queeny at 2pm. Logistically, I don't know how that's going to work.

Keith

Start early in the morning I guess.

Chris

07-09-2003, 12:53 PM

All the people I really want to see will be at the install day anyway...

Keith

yay! I'm touched! :sad:

Cory

Yah, im not getting Jen's emails either.... thank god i got the one from you james...thanks for adding me

Keith

I just got my Hondata intake manifold gasket in! IDK if I feel like tackling it this w/e tho. Jason, you up for it? :)

How is an 11am start on Saturday? Same rules, you must stick around to clean up the mess and bring money for food! (host doesn't pay a cent).

The email I sent said we're starting at 10...I guess for you, it's later.:P Also, what are we to do about the "meet" portion of the day? Jen re-emailed people (which skipped you again, and a few others), and said 2pm for the meet at Queeny? She PM'ed me telling me she can't make it. Do we skip it? Do we have someone go out there, and caravan whoever shows up back to Jason's?

Keith

That sounds like a good idea. 10am is a good start (if we don't do my IM gasket). Everything listed should take more than a few hours.

I've just told people 10am-8pm(or if we finish earlier that's fine)

Saturday is customer appreciation day at Papa Johns... 5.99 large pizzas. mmmmmmmm.....

Also guys, if you change any fluids make sure you take them with you. I had a few gallons of dirty motor oil to deal with last time(it's ok, James' yard makes for a good oil dump)

Doh! We'll make a run and dispose of the fluids somewhere on Sat.

There's an AutoZone on Manchester and Clarkson that we can dump those fluids.

Chris, what about the S2K steering wheel? Are we installing that too?

Chris

07-17-2003, 09:02 AM

No, don't have it yet. Next weekend It'll be in, hopefully. I have a lot to do then. My kit should be painted and ready to install and I'll be putting on my new wheels. I also have to get a base 3rd brake light and wire it on the rear deck like a base model - my Mugen spoiler doesn't have the LED. That's all easy stuff though. Then I'll be ready for you to take a sig pic for me.
