Possible bring-your-mods day
Soon I have few things to do to my car maintenance wise (diff/tranny/oil fluid changes) and was thinking if anyone else needed any help with small mods Id be willing to help and/or lend tools. I have 2 jacks, some jackstands, and all sockets needed for any job (no impact wrench unfortunatly).
I'm thinking I will do this within the next few weeks if there seems to be a warm day coming up. Any interest?
Install Ideas:
-intake
-exhaust (if bolts have been loosened previously. If not, I don't have the means to take off a age-welded bolt)
-suspension work excluding aftermarket springs on struts (too much of a PITA to do anymore)
-gauges
-brake caliper painting
-expanding oil venting
-removing vfad
-short shifter
-any fluid changes
-any light bulb changes
-any maintence stuff like cabin air filter or engine air filter
let me know guys

For the caliper paint, you can pick some up at AutoZone I believe (same for Seafoam ($10). They usually have blue, red, black, or silver in stock for $15 or 20 IIRC.

If your going to paint the calipers you should do it right. www.G2USA.com they have high heat paint, that is incredibly durable. Also its probably going to be to cold to paint them, I think it says it should be at least 70 degrees but I would have to check the box I have at home.

I used this on my 8 and if you want go ahead and look at my photos to see how it turned out. This stuff turns to rock, and is very durable. It coats on thick to so its very resiliant but smooth. I have photos if you wanna see how it turned out just click on my sig and goto brake caliper painting album.
