July Meet

[FFCiv]

Location: CT; Clayton's house possibly?

Date: July ?

the Dilema:
So as some of you know my Ka threw a rod a couple weeks ago. I've finally found a good condition motor to swap in and now here's the dilema. I cant swap it alone and dont know how. So I'm willing to throw a big BBQ if you'll come down and help with the swap a sat or sunday this month. If you could all let me know what weekend is best for you That'd be awesome

Mission if you choose to accept it: BBQ for KA swap

The goods: pounds and buckets of food and drink

Thanks in advance -Dan

since it's a direct drain, unbolt, lift, drop, bolt, and fill.....it shouldn't take us too long....and after we get all sweaty...then we can jump in the pool to cool off...

July 10th might be a good day...that should give every one a chance to plan for it...

 

[TurboMirage]

good for me. 11th is autocross

helps that clayton and i have good working knowledge on KA motors.

[posol]

[FFCiv]

[ScrapinSi]

[ScrapinSi]

July10th... 3rd shift...
July17th... Camping (Hopefully)
July24th... Birthday.. (Gonna be in NYC)

After that, i'm good to go!

And as far as the AutoX goes... What can I say... i'm lazy... AutoX for me means changing over wheels, adjusting suspension, stocking up on oil, cleaning the golf bags & other shit out of the car...

 

[TurboMirage]

dont bother

you would just baby your car at autox anyways. just like when you got beat by a stock DX. B)

 

[ScrapinSi]

I tell ya what... When I do come to the AutoX i'll bring plenty of black silicone with me just in case your BOOST gauge falls out so you can put it back in.

Its cool and all to have a boost gauge ya know, but at least mine goes above 0

 

[TurboMirage]

understandable and thanks! but my gauges have never fallen out. if you really want to help, buy me a can of expanding foam.

but... im not afraid to beat on my car. B)

 

[Celerity]

Sounds groovy. We got Nissan folks coming over for the engine lift ?

I'm buying Rob's lift for $70, so we'll have a decent new lift to do the Job.

But you dont have enough power to break anything by beating on it! And its a mirage, so its $1.99 to replace it if you break it! A b16 is much more expensive! :fuckyou: :fuckyou2: :fuckyou3:

 

[FFCiv]

wow u guys RULE

 

[ScrapinSi]
