Beach Workshop and Cruise

[98goldbird]

Hey guys, I was thinking of October 2nd (sunday) for us to get a workshop and cruise going. I should have my new spark plugs, wires, CAI, and Man Fan Switch from Texas-Speed, and I could greatly appreciate help from some of the "pros" in getting it all installed. Both me and Pewter are in Huntington Beach, Bat isn't that far (Irvine), etc. So I was thinking maybe a Beach Workshop with a cruise down PCH towards Bat's house to watch the NFL Night game? Let me know what you all think and any suggestions are recommended!

Sorry, make that October 3rd....either way...the first SUNDAY of October!

[benoh with camaro]

dude, im in. im probably going to have new spark plugs and wires for my car, and i really really ... really (emphasising really) need help with the install cause it's freaking impossible to reach those damn plugs. i just changed the fuel filter on my car, so that's off my to-do list. oh, and does anyone know the normal idle RPM for the V6 3800 engine? it was @ 700 before the fuel filter ... now it's at 750.

Little write up I did for changing plugs and wires. Makes things a little easier. BTW it is a 5/8ths socket.

Be glad to help, i did my motor swap so i should be able to help with plugs, in fact ive done them before myself.

[PewterBird]

Im there.

Sounds like fun. Maybe I will temporarily put on my new body kit(upainted) to show it off.

I probably wont have it painted by them.

[Paul Ford]

What kinda body kit do you got?

Pewter, do you have ramps?

[PewterBird]

No, But I have stands and a 2ton Hydrolic jack.
Ramps are so much better tho.

[CaLiJeRk]

i have ramps... but what u gonna give me to use them??

[95Batmobile]

jack + stands > ramps :D
Can't fix your brakes with ramps!

Jeff maybe we should meet up at your house and we can do your rear brakes at the same time?

I will have my new sway bar and underdrive pulleys on... I might have to go whoop you in a race ;) lol

Bat, your dreams get worser and worser...first you meet Jenna Jameson, then you have sex with her, and now you think you can still beat 3.8's graemlins/rofl.gif Pinch yourself soon before it's too late!

Jeff...how would that sound meeting up at your place (sorry to intrude)?

Secondly my parents probably wont aprove of it.

Sorry. I gotta get my own place, so I have some room and freedom.

Where is jones at? Maybe Jones can host a gathering. Other than being in Rancho Cucawhatthe****, it looks like he has a garage from the pics in the cardomain site.

[CaLiJeRk]

he lives 15 min away from me.... and he is in an apartment complex, i doubt he will be able to do it.

[C.O.Jones]

No... the apartment complex doesn't even know that I work on my own car. I think they would flip if they find out what I've been doing. Every couple of months they have garage inspections. I clean everything up and throw empty boxes over my jacks and oil containers...


Rancho is at the 10/15 interchange.

[98goldbird]

My apartment complex prohibits stuff like this....soo............... :confused:

I don't think we really need electicity anwhow...I have a DC-AC Converter installed in my car, that can power small power tools.

[95Batmobile]

I don't know what my complex would say... only thing that I would worry about is having a place to park all of your cars.

We'll figure something out, I guess.

Brandon could we go to your place?
Maybe we can get some food too and BBQ and watch the game?

[98goldbird]

Damn....we have to resort to where the cows are! :smelly:

[95Batmobile]

LOL I am only in Tulare for a few weeks..

I live in Irvine where there are no cows :(

Oh, we can do the work in a parking lot. I'm having problems with my Alt. so I spent about 1 1/2 hrs removing my battery so it could be recharged and removing my alt so it could be tested at the local Autozone last night. I was one of 3 cars doing work there....

[PewterBird]

I got a location...see my new post.
