Modification Meeting
 
I get lots of questions from the members about different modification etc. Why dont we have a get together and talk in person?! I would be happy to take some time and go through a few of the things we have learned the hard way over the last say.....................30 years lol. Anyone interested?

Footman 02-25-2009 02:35 PM

do it.

wcs 02-25-2009 03:55 PM

Oh pick me, over here, pick me

REV-illusions 02-25-2009 04:18 PM

I'm up for that.... though chances are I'll know what you're going to say about most things already ;p

ZmFnZm 02-25-2009 04:23 PM

I'm definitely in. But can you do it in the spring, my 8 is hibernating right now.

Either way I'm in though!!!!

REV-illusions 02-25-2009 04:31 PM

techincally you don't actually have to have the car present for a discussion :)

ZmFnZm 02-25-2009 04:36 PM

i know, i just miss driving it!!!!

01Racing 02-25-2009 04:39 PM

I was thinking one of these saturdays at the dealership, I can put one up on a hoist, the race cars are here etc. That way we would have examples.

ZmFnZm 02-25-2009 04:45 PM

Sounds good. You guys did great when my sun visor fell off and shorted out my car, wouldn't mind taking a closer look at the rx7 race car. I only got a peek of it through the shop window!

rotarygreg 02-25-2009 04:49 PM

great idea al. I would love to come, saddly i work every saturday until 1 so ill have to sit this out. really like the idea though.

01Racing 02-25-2009 04:51 PM

We can start around 3pm that gives you time to get here! Love to meet you!

Kafka 02-25-2009 04:54 PM

Count me in ... I will be there E A R L Y.

ZmFnZm 02-25-2009 05:04 PM

Are we talking about this Saturday at 3pm?

qtwre 02-25-2009 05:09 PM

Sounds like a good idea. Do you have any ideas about what you'll be showing us? Brake pads, fluid changes, stereo installs? ;)

Maybe show us how to get the rattles out of these cars. :P

01Racing 02-25-2009 05:19 PM

The subject matter is up to you guys lol thats the whole point. If you tell me if this Saturday is good thats fine. I will be away Saturday March 7. Maybe post a list of what you want to talk about so I can be prepared.

rotarygreg 02-25-2009 06:11 PM

if thats when its gonna start, ill be there. this saturday works for me, might be a little soon for everyone to clear their schedules, but im down whatever saturday you guys pick. saturdays are usually a write off for me really, working until one just kills the rest of the day. I dont have anything specific that i would like you to go over really....i just wanna pick your brain al. haha. Im dying to see this beast racecar too. Im sure i'll think of something before the weekend though.

01Racing 02-25-2009 06:24 PM

Its up to the people who responded, if you want to this saturday its cool with me, just let me know by Friday am!

DarkBrew 02-25-2009 06:42 PM

I'm interested!

ZmFnZm 02-25-2009 06:59 PM

Count me in, I'll try to come up with some good questions by Friday

Neo 02-26-2009 06:22 AM

Damit! I want to come to this but this weekend is booked. Next available weekend would be in April.
Can we do it on a Sun. instead??

TheWulf 02-26-2009 08:23 AM

If you guys do this on a Saturday in the spring/summer I may come down... couldn't justify it right now though :(

REV-illusions 02-26-2009 08:53 AM

I'm sure Al can do more then just one of these.. seems like a number of people are already good to go for Sat.. I'd be up for that as well. We can shove my car up on the hoist.... if I can install my ram duct ;)

qtwre 02-26-2009 01:52 PM

I'll try to make it. I have an audiolink installed as well.

So shall we discuss what we'll do at this meeting? I suggest we begin with a dealership-sponsored car raffle.

Al, I'm still not clear on what your idea is. Do you want to get into doing actual work on cars or do you want to point at things and answer questions?

01Racing 02-26-2009 01:59 PM

Liability wise we cant work on car, just point and shoot lol

qtwre 02-26-2009 02:04 PM

Oh, I'll bring my BHR coils to show them off after that exciting discussion in the other thread.

ZmFnZm 02-26-2009 03:19 PM

Footman will love that i'm sure!!!

Marc_GS 02-26-2009 04:26 PM

Al, this is a terrific initiative, and a great service to the RX-8 community.

If only I lived in TO, and still had an 8...

Have fun everyone

dozer 02-26-2009 04:27 PM

wcs 02-26-2009 05:46 PM

I'm out
You had to pick this Saturday, I've got family down from Halifax.

Footman 02-26-2009 10:24 PM

Since Gecko probably can't help me with the install on SAT, looks like I'll be installing it on Saturday morning... I hope I could make it in by 3pm installed. I'm missing some screws and an important tube...

Rev-Illusions, you gonna help on Sat morning?

Thief 02-26-2009 11:15 PM

I'll be there. Met up with Chris (KaKui) tonight and he'll more than likely show up as well.

Kafka 02-27-2009 01:17 AM

I will be selling cars that day and pop by once a while :)

prospectjtaz 02-27-2009 09:05 AM

I got easter eggs to plant so this fluffy bunny is out. I still have training happening for another two weeks so I am out. Will be free after 6 thou, if you guys are hitting a pub or something afterwards.

Rev, wanna meet up tonight by your area, gotta meet someone by Scarberia town after 9 tonight.

prospectjtaz 02-27-2009 09:06 AM

I'll bring Killzone 2 (side note, I can get Killzone 2 for 50 if anyone is interested)
