no driveway, usually plenty of street parking, and, i'll ask my neighbor if we can park in his driveway (should be good for 2-4 cars). if anybody has 'adequate' space, lmk

we should get a list going of what date and time is suitable for everyone, as well as the location...and of course a list of who is going and what they need to have installed

hey tim where do you live?

sweet, lets get a list started of who needs what done and possible dates

***nandanrp*** · 03-15-2007, 08:04 AM

Why didn't you start the list CJ!?!?

Jeez, do I have to do everything around here?

Tools everyone will need: jacks, jackstands, ramps (if we do Renato's sways), torque wrench, sockets, ratchets, open-end wrenches, screwdrivers, etc. It would be a good idea to have a flex handle socket driver (commonly called a "breaker bar") to remove nuts, and PB Blaster is a good idea too. This is NOT an all-inclusive list, so let's do our best to have a solid list of tools needed before we do this install day.

List format: Name (User name) - Stuff to install, "Special" tools needed

1. CJ (anayami22) - TiC SS kit. Special Tools: Snap-ring plier (for removal of the c-clip that holds the shift lever in), multi-sized punches (to remove the roll pin in the linkage, and roll pin from the reverse lockout ring on the shift lever), white-lithium grease (to grease bushings).

I'm sure there's more, but I can't remember at the moment. Everybody post in a similar format, and we'll keep this list up-to-date.

Do we have a tentative date?

I'm still shopping around for ALK to get installed with the sways...

***nandanrp*** · 03-15-2007, 08:57 AM

You realize you'd have to get realigned when you put an ALK on, right?

ALK for sure requires a good flex handle so that you can break the nuts free...those control arm nuts are probably tight as hell.

I haven't installed either sways or an ALK yet, but I'd be comfortable attempting sways (mine go in around May).

Trey05STI · 03-15-2007, 09:22 AM

I have some Defi gauges on the way, I think they may be here around Wednesday or Thursday of next week if anyone would like to assist in the install or maybe I can join you guys on this local install day.

***nandanrp*** · 03-15-2007, 09:27 AM

Which Defis?

In order of difficulty (Hardest to easiest): EGT, Oil Pressure, Boost.
