hey hey just a heads up the unlimited laps are only on fridays and sundays. With that being said im sure the date will be moved to the Aug 21st.

I'll call later today and speak with the manager about setting up a party for us

How much of a pain in the butt would it be to install springs with my stock struts there in the parking lot? :thumb up:

Pur_Blu · 08-13-2011, 08:09 PM

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-14-2011, 01:11 AM

Bump for date change.

Kioshi · 08-14-2011, 02:19 AM

Kiteless - just bring your car and yourself. Computerlove87 has ALL the tools to do the spring install. We have done this befire at...night with flashlights haha.

Ask advocate, yaris sedan, and ezhacker1.

Kaotic Lazagna · 08-14-2011, 03:03 AM

Someone bring a spring compressor ;)

Pur_Blu · 08-14-2011, 11:09 AM

ha ha a spring compressor is for the noob. just bring a box or something. i've lowered my car with cell phone light.

advocate · 08-14-2011, 08:03 PM

Hey Actually looks like I will also have a set of (hopefully gently used) Tokico Blue struts and a set of Tanabe NF210 (also used) springs. Gonna buy them at the meet up.

I may be able to bring a good floor jack, since thats something that is big and heavy and annoying to haul around and you guys would be doing me a HUGE favor with this install.

Yes, I am the n0000b.

It is my understanding that this could go a lot smoother if I have the struts and the springs together? Is there anything else that I would need other than those 2 things?

Sorry I should start a different thread than talking about this here. Sorry Laz!

So exciting! I should also have proper struts to go with the springs. I am hoping this makes things much easier.

Its Sunday night, how can you be busy?!! haha.
Seriously, drop by, stock or not...it does not matter.

Just ask Kiteless.....its all about chatting it up with one another.
We're a friendly bunch :)

PMs sent to other members in the area.

Ma71-51o · 08-15-2011, 06:25 PM

haha im 100% stock, but ill see

Kioshi · 08-15-2011, 06:59 PM

Its better to be stock, you get to see a broad range of paths to branch off from.
Who knows, you may end up swapping with other people that come.

When a few of us started out, we were all stock and there weren't too many vendors or parts available. We stood out in a parking lot full of S2000, M3, G35, etc... ;)

Pur_Blu · 08-15-2011, 07:24 PM

i can't wait... i gotta stop spending money though. Jason if u got shocks and springs that will make the install x10times easier PnP really. swapping out springs takes a lil time but can be done. Harbor frieght has alum race jacks that weigh in around 45lbs. I go one at my house that tips the scales at about 70-80lbs.

STOCK, MODDED, RACING OR NOT RACING EVERYONE SHOULD GO FROM THE BAY AREA

dumb0 · 08-16-2011, 12:17 AM

wow! i want to come, but i have work and i get off at 8pm.. waaaa.

oohh and does anyone of you know where can i get a paint job, prolly the cheapest but the highest quality. i dont know what is required to have a paint job.

hehe.
