Post by **aza013** » Thu Apr 03, 2008 2:35 am

list so far:-

Lwrida -
> fit internal CCFL lights
> fit fuse box
> fix central locking - Do you require new after market actuators? Ie a Maplins unit from Auto One or similar?
>Fit intakepipe & pod filter
>grill mesh

Mr_f700
> adjust steering wheel
> add din pocket

rock_it
> Angel eyes
> paint inner lights plastic
> delaminat lights - Will need some 800-1200 wet & dry, then need some polish
> undercar neons
> floor and starao surround - Want me to bring these on the day, or you wanna grab them before hand?

elusion
> angel eyes

bushido
> tinting taillights

dB
> angel eyes
> mounts - you ordered them from Mitsi yet? Last I checked the front one was Ex Japan & 3 weeks wait.
> fitting springs Serious? As in lowering springs? Be aware your alignment will be out to the sh*thouse afterwards & your first stop would need to be a garage that can align it. I'll also need to bring spring compressors.
>plugs & leads

Kaz
> CV joints Got 'em yet?

AJ
> Angel Eyes
> Remove scratches from headlights
> Upgrade headlight bulbs
> Paint inside lights gloss black
> Air/Fuel guage wired up.
> Adjust drivers side window
> Brake pads (any recomendations?) Try the Ferrodo series. Most autoshops can order them in for you. If FTO is not on their list, then they are same pads as on an EVO II & III
> Conect folding mirrors to alarm
> fix alarm
> Fix front passenger side inner arch guard Easiest way to do that is buy a new liner & fit it. Panel House do them brand new for about $120 from memory & they'll ship to you

jonowong

> water pump No chance
> timing belt No chance
> alternator belt Got one yet?
> ps belt Got one yet?

Thanks

Post by **aza013** » Thu Apr 03, 2008 8:59 am

I'll probably still cut myself !!!

Provided i can get the time off work (working two jobs now), i'll be there.

nicholas · Post by **nicholas** » Thu Apr 03, 2008 7:38 pm

Ah, sucks I thought this would be on a Sunday... think that's what the original date was.

But anyway I still be there, just will have to leave sometime in the afternoon for a soccer match.

Need us to bring food and that sort of shiz?

Boags Premium

As far as food and drink, what say everyone chips in for the day and I provide the food etc???

I'm not sure what the $$ would be so am open to suggestions. I think this would be best so there is no double up and everyone gets fed and watered..

What say you?

lwrida · Post by **lwrida** » Fri Apr 04, 2008 9:42 pm

Sounds good

Put me down for some water

Post by **aza013** » Sat Apr 05, 2008 1:25 am

sounds good Kaz
I have already got some snags and hamberga meat and some rolls in the freezer to add to it so that will cut down on the cost a little

+1. Tell me how much and I'll bring the right change

Does anyone know whether changing gearbox oil is a realistic job without a hoist?

Post by **aza013** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 1:48 am

not a 100% but I could not see why you could not do it just by a jack, but I have never done it so I am not the best person to say

as for the rest of the ppl on the list it is getting closer to the day so please get all the stuff you need in order so there is not a big rush and the chance of forgetting any thing.

Its going to be a full on day so please try to get there as close to 09:00 as you can.
with thanks
Aza

nick, for the oil change you need a oil gun, i dont know what theyre called but theyre like a grease gun without having to pump heaps. i might be able to get one for you. you cant get to the filler plug without them.

Is it ok just to replace my front brake pads?

manofwood · Post by **manofwood** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 2:43 pm

what do you mean? without replacing/ machining your rotors?

Yes. and not doing the back ones either.

Post by **Bennoz** » Thu Apr 10, 2008 3:10 pm

That'll be fine. If you have any small grooves on the disc surface, the pads will wear into them. Only worry is if you have a shudder - Ie a warped rotor. While a pad change can still be done, you'll still have a shudder.

Sweet thanks.
