Whats up this weekend? (7/2/05)

[Bphilly]

What is going on this weekend? Are we doing anything? Install day perhaps?

[moxie]

I will have a header and up-pipe...

The more the merrier cause I hear it's a bitch.

[wgnths]

yep i think we'll be doing a few installs this weekend....anyone have anything they need to install besides ryan? im gonna look into gearhead garage down the street cause they used to rent a bay out with a lift. 8)

[Bphilly]

I could have a up pipe for really cheap. I heard that it s the worst to instsall though

[moxie]

If we are doing 2 we migh get the hang of it.

[DangerViking]

I'm in to help, nothin serious planned so far :) takin the Trac to toyota and having them tell me what the goddamn piss hell is wrong with my brakes, other than that I'm completely open. never done headers or up pipe so it's something I'd like to learn anyway

[pickinicholas]

The uppipe is like 1000x easier to do when you do the headers at the same time. Just make sure you get the header gaskets and uppipe gasket. The headers and uppipe have the gasket between the two, but not the ones inbetween the engine and headers and uppipe and turbo. And subaru has crappy service hours, so on Saturday they are closed I believe. I'd come and help, but I'm moving into my new house this weekend... bah, maby I can come anyways and use the holiday to move.

Ok, so I can use standard Suby gaskets for those parts?

Do I need to replace mine? I only have 450 miles or so on the car.

Not that it's a problem. Would just save me a trip to Pitre.

Come if you can. I would even help you move in exchange. :)

I'm going to try to come... About the gaskets, you COULD re-use them, but if they tear when you pull them off then you are S.O.L. so, I'd get them to be safe, yeah and they are the stock ones... the only one that isn't stock is the one between the header and the uppipe. but that gasket is with the header and uppipe.

Do you need any floor jacks? I have (2) 2ton floor jacks I can load up and bring.

[moxie]

Ok, I will make the call to Subaru Parts today.
Not having a gasket would suck ass...

An extra jack wouldn't hurt...
We have a nice one at Erin's but bring one more over just in case.

[pickinicholas]

Will do... I need directions to wherever we are doing it when you guys get the chance.

[wgnths]

im gonna see if we can rent a garage down the street with a lift, otherwise i'll pm you with my addy. i'll need to get some shade at my house if we do it there. hopefully the spec v will be gone, but if not we can move the 240 out and push the spec into the street...the freeway i mean. :)

[pickinicholas]

sounds good

[moxie]

I have one of those tent things too Erin...

I'm sure it will fit in the back of the wagon... :)

[The B]

If anyone wants it, I've got an STi catless up-pipe for sale.

[Philthy]

If anyone's got a dirtbike/ATV, I'm running up to Crown King Saturday morning. Should be hot and dusty but at least we may get turned around by fire.

[wrx222]

how much for the Sti Up-pipe?!

Dave

[wgnths]

If anyone's got a dirtbike/ATV, I'm running up to Crown King Saturday morning oh man, i would love to go! i've only ever done crown with my jeep..i have an 04 yz250f but i've got a nasty carb leak that needs to be fixed. :x

[Philthy]

Fix it. You've got plenty of time. Like 48 hours or so.

[wgnths]

well tonight im helping ryan move, tomorrow night im taking the rest of my spec v apart, uninstalling a gauge in the 240 to put in ryans wrx, installing new gauges in 240. fri night i must spend time with the girl and little one without working on something. :lol: it will be fixed for sure after the 9th(i'll be in maine until then).

[moxie]

up pipe looks easy...

LOL

[wgnths]

NOT!!! i bet it takes us allllllllll day.

[moxie]

We are gonna need breaks... and a cooler full of gatorade.

Do we have anything we can do first thing?
Cause the car will be hot when I get over there

[wgnths]

umm, i dont have anything other than steering rack bushings but i hear those are a pita so i probably wont do them. i do need to try and quiet down my f ing rear sway bar! im gonna get ramps, we can jack it up, drop it down on the ramps and redo the bar under load...otherwise, the car will take quite awhile to cool down! we could probably clay bar and wax it way before its cool enough. :lol:

[Bphilly]

I know....we could clay bar and wax mine!!!!

[pickinicholas]

I can give rides in my car and motivate you to get burns on your hands and arms by the uncontrollable urge to put the headers and exhaust on right away to find a smigit of the power I have... ;)

[moxie]

now that sounds like a plan Nick... :)

[Bphilly]

Anybody doin anyhing for the 4th?

[pickinicholas]

Anybody doin anyhing for the 4th?

Moving into my new house!

[wgnths]

no plans here for the 4th...probably take the little one to see some fireworks i guess. we're leaving for maine thurs, blah..

[moxie]

Bein hung over. :)

[wgnths]

ok, so whos coming over tomorrow and what needs doing? bring a few tools if you have stuff to do, bring liquids so you dont melt in my driveway and what time will you be showing up?? cars need time to cool down if its motor related. if you want to wash or do some detailing for pics later, thats fine too. :wink: my crossroads are cooper/elliot in gilbert. 602 402-0367 for detailed directions.

[pickinicholas]

I'm coming and bringing a couple of floor jacks... Hydrolic is the only way to go... I might change my oil since we have the time.

[moxie]

I will be there... of course :)

Can you bring the parts then Nick?

I will bring drinks for all those helpin my dumb ass. or go to get them if need be.


Erin, I am probably gonna drop my car off at your house tonight so it will be ready to go in the morning. We will need to start on mine at like 9:00 I think.

Yeah they are in my garage... finally found the lil bastards... I'll bring them with me, and head over to that side of town ~7:30am

[moxie]

Sounds good. :)

w00t!

[wgnths]

ah good idea, drop the car right out front. my spec wont be moving :x those f ing cheap wheels we switched have THE smallest opening for lug nuts, EVER! my small spline nuts wont fit, went to discount and they couldnt believe it...said they could have some tues. checker and autozone no go too.

looks like we have an sti coming for headlight clearing as well. and if we get done in time for pics, then we need the cars sorta clean. :)

[Bphilly]

Sorry about your small nuts Erin....I will be there with a guy from my neighborhood and his STI. See Yaal around 8:00(Drunken poist)
