Alright...I won't be doing the carbing bar for my car because 1. I don't have it yet and 2. cuz chris told me it involves messing with the control arms, so I'll take it to a shop and let them do it.

I'll come by and help with the spring installs. I installed my teins myself, so I have knowledge on how to do this.

 

thanks hockey.

btw lemme know what shop you go to for the bar cus now that you mention control arms, i think mine needs to be checked. i went to a private nj inspection center, and a recall popped up for the control arm. took it to the stealership and they told me it was already "fixed" since the steering tends to move slightly to the sides at times (already did computerized precision aligment). i told them it could be that it probably wasn't properly "fixed" and they said "$99" to inspect it. I told em to take a hike. But they did do a recall for "low engine power"...can't complain about that one, my 8 feels peppier on 1st gear than before :D

 

hey guys, if it is really cold, i wont bring my FD. i have the heater deleted from it

 

alright everyone, i have tools from drift!!!! spring compressers etc.

 

ok, so see everyone tomorrow

 

im in bringing the fd out to play

 

MIKE: make sure to save the spots right in front of your place for the people that are actually installing stuff.

i hope i wake up. goddamn im wiped.

 

yeah there better be a spot with my name on it. i got teh toolz.

 

Hey, Mike. I'm feeling lousy, came down with the flue last night so I won't be able to make it. At least there'll be one more parking space. Hope someone else can bring the doughnuts!

Many thanks to Mike for the location and tools, Pico for takin the trouble of going home to get the carjack and being a supercool person, Goose for bringing tools, Chris for his input and advice (and jokes), and especially to Hockey for working on my 8 and showing me how to get started next time we do things. lol.
