    i have the wiring harness for the my stereo, the dash kit and all. so i should be ready for the stereo. do i need to get anything for the door speakers? do i need a bracket of some kind for the speakers going in. 6.5" going into the 5.25" hole, right. i just don't want to get this half way started and then have to run out again. any input is great. i'm gettin' psyched, i miss my bass, damn-it! and my iPod in my car. this FM thing sucks ASS!!!!

    after a good rain, go down to the bottom of the hill. there's a huge run-off moat/canal whatever you want to call it, and it fills to the top. and man that water is moving fast! i think it called York something apts.

    I'm hoping I can sell my Valentine 1 in time to order some springs to install on the 28th. I also want to paint my headlights if possible and maybe talk Goixiz into trading roof rails.

    10am should be fine

    sweet, 10am sounds good.

    I am going to bring my air impact wrench and air compressor, so if people need to swap springs, I can help out. I should have all the necessary tools, except for jack stands, which are currently under my crx.

    Drop me a PM if you need help with swapping springs, and I can see if we can organize this so it works out efficiently.

    Probably can help do 3-4 sets.

    ^^Shouldn't be a problem. Might want to soak the bolts w/ PBBlaster the night before.
    That'll probably be the biggest problem. Maybe...

    sweet! this should power the air compressor just fine if you don't mind it being used for a few minutes to refill.

    Sweet :) See you there!

    Will be able to put the air impact wrench to good use. It is so helpful.

    Trivializes the task of undoing hard torqued/rusted nuts.

    hey guys
    I'm not gonna make it out
    my car is having tranny issues, tc is def going. Just really slammed with stuff, there is a post on seloc with more details. I apologize for not being able to come out. Randy if you buddy wants to install his CAI sometime or hasn't has let me know bud.

    I am sorry for not keeping up to date with the aquarium meet either. There are some other issues that don't need to be public, that will change hopefully. I don't want to be a cog in the wheel around here, alex hit me up on aim sometime.

    with all of your helps, how long will it take for turbo + injectors + pump installation??? (I bet brian's air wrench will cut down lots of time)

    Install Day

    I don't have anything to install right this moment but I might order some brake lines. I have done the springs and exhaust a few times with a club in Tacoma WA so I will try to make it to turn wrenches if nothing else. Also I want to learn some more about Turbo management and see what other peeps have done to their subbies.

    Look forward to it and hope to be there...

    Probably goes with out saying, but I am bringing my minature, instant friendship devices (otherwise know as bottled beer).

    Lates

    Im a newbie and would like to show up to the install day. I have a set a springs that I need help with. Will I need to bring any tools/spring compressor or just myself?

    jackstands would be helpful, as we probably can put more than 1 car up at a time to streamline the process. I can help organize the efforts to swap springs at the install day.

    Can never have too many jackstands. Also, anyone bringing ramps?

    well guys i think im gonna be in athens fri night so i dont think i will make it to milos within a good time saturday morning. One of these days ill make it to an install day, and when i do i will have something to install as well. Take pics!!

    I've got a set of ramps I can bring, if they're needed.

    chang: i'd recommend against a turbo+injectors+pump install on an install day... the job takes way too long... also, maybe it was just my car but there are too many things that can go wrong

    everyone: im adding the address to the first post... regardless, please follow instructions on how to get into the parking deck

    I'd second against doing that much during the install day. No one wants to get caught trying to finish before dark (it happens everytime) and it makes everything so much more difficult.

    I will see if I can borrow some of my dad's jack stands and jack.
