fort erie is close enough for me to come:biggrin:
Fort Erie isn't all that far for anyone... :shrug:
It could probably work out... as long as people don't mind the drive.
MaverickFlyer
04-05-2008, 08:05 PM
I'd go to Fort Erie. I guess it depends on the day.
I removed the Interior today. :evil:

Nothing big, putting in new speakers, door panels, new head unit and 7 " screen. More mods to come soon. :evil:

I put your head unit in last fall but not the screen. But i got another head unit. I might sell both and get an in dash DVD player so I don't have to worry about the PS2. Not sure yet. I have a lots of plans for the car this year.

How about a quick vote... who would be good with a mod meet at Chris' place in Brampton? He's around HWY. 10 & Steeles, just behind Shopper's World.
I think it would work best for everyone. It's definitely more central than Fort Erie.

It's more so based on when you guys were thinking of doing the meet. Do you want to hold a Saturday or Sunday meet?

I guess it's up to Mike. I think his Roush kit will be the big mod of the day. Either Day works for me as long as i know in advance.
I would prefer a saturday. I think it just works better for most. Unless it conflicts for anyone else.
How about April 26th? Would that work?
michcougar
04-07-2008, 05:52 PM
April 26th works for me too so far

I should be okay for the 26th, so far.
So... shall I change the title and make this official? Saturday, April 26th at... what time? 10am? 12pm? Earlier? Later?

Would Sunday, the 27th work better for everyone? Makes absolutely no difference to me. At this point, it's totally up to Chris.
MaverickFlyer
04-08-2008, 12:06 AM
Either day works for me so far. Not sure what car I'll be driving though.

Sunday I could do....

Chris, Do you want the guys from CEG there. I'll let you post that one up over there.

Either day is fine with me, just be aware that if there are going to be a lot of cars, you will have to park on the road. I live on a court so it's common for street parking here.
So... are we changing it to Sunday so Dan can make it? Its up to you guys...
I've added a poll, so if everyone that plans to attend would please vote, that would be great!
MaverickFlyer
04-08-2008, 10:28 PM
I say we do Sunday. there is a lapping day at Shannonville on Saturday me and Kyle might go to. Then Dan can make it to.
hamill
04-08-2008, 10:44 PM
Mitch.....if it does end up being the Sunday....I'll bring your parts.
Anyone else wanna buy crap lemmie know and I'll bring it (if the meet is Sunday)

I told you...it was never missing...but Yes, I got it out of the garage. :rofl:
And yes...I'll bring it :)

Looks like Sunday is the more popular day... and with the amount of people saying they're gonna show up, we should have my Roush kit on in 6 1/2 minutes.
:rofl:
I'll close down the poll and change the title to reflect the date change.

04-09-2008, 12:20 PM
Maybe I will bring my kit too and we can practice on yours and that way mine can go on perfectly lol
I just have to find somewhere that sells double sided tape....

I've installed 4 Roush kits and 1 Wings West... I don't think i'll be making any mistakes. ;)
Go to NAPA for the tape. Make sure you get the good stuff.

Get the adhesive promoter while you are there to.

04-09-2008, 02:32 PM
What do you guys need from me? Food? Drinks? ?????
Sorry, can't have my garage, it's occupied. :rofl:
So... is anyone else going to be doing any mods?
We should probably figure out what tools and any other things we're gonna need.

04-09-2008, 10:31 PM
I can probably make it!! The winter is over and it's time to take advantage of the nicer weather. :biggrin:
Is Maya gonna be there????
hamill
04-09-2008, 10:34 PM
buy parts off me is the mod you should all do :)
seriously though, Mike, I think between you and ME we can have the whole kit on in less than an hour. I did mine myself in less than 2 hours and that included taking the old tape off the parts (biggest PITA). SHould I being the heat gun?
hamill
04-09-2008, 10:35 PM
Oh...and Mel, if you want, you can crash at our place Saturday night if you wanna split up the driving time a bit. If not, lemmie know when you are passing by London and we can meet up.

04-09-2008, 10:38 PM
I was planning to leave early Sunday...when do you plan on leaving??...we can coordinate to meet up then and drive the rest of the way together. Just PM me. :)

A heat gun might come in handy. Everything should be warm when we're putting it on.

At least it's a new kit so we don't have to worry about old tape.

Good stuff? Do you know whats its called?
Any idea how much tape I should get? I just have to install the sides and front.

The good stuff would be 3M.
3M Automotive Trim & Accessories : 3M™ Acrylic Plus Tape PT 1100, Black, 1.14 mm (http://products3.3m.com/catalog/us/en001/auto_marine_aero/pro_market/node_VKWHR3B083be/root_GST1T4S9TCgv/vroot_CX2WXLSHJ7ge/gvel_K4JN83P3JZgl/theme_us_attachmenttapes_3_0/command_AbcPageHandler/output_html)
I think it runs $30-$40/roll. One roll is way more than enough or you. You'll have more than 1/2 of it leftover.
It'll have a red release liner and the tape will be black or grey. If you go in to NAPA and ask for 3M automotive double-sided tape, they'll know exactly what you need.

So Mike, are you going to get your Exhaust modified before we put the Rear on it? If not, can you remove the exhaust tip temporarily?
michcougar

Nothing a grinder or sawsall cant fix :)

i dont think i'll be coming due to friday and sat working night shift... getting off at 7am i dont think i'll be very lively... let alone my cats in piece now that shes out...
Alright... I got the exhaust cut today and I removed the trailer hitch. All I need to do is touch up the paint on both rocker panels and i'm good to go. :biggrin:
I gotta say, I absolutely LOVE the way the exhaust sounds right now.
It's louder and it vibrates more and the sound is just slightly different... it's great! :evil:

I taped off my rockers and sprayed them with rocker guard rubberized paint before I put on the sides. I have a couple cans left if you need it.

Did anyone else decide if they are doing any mods, do we need to bring any tools?

I don't know about the ash tray...I have 2 though, so $5 for that, I'll sell you the door jewels, both for $15 (they are $35 each at the dealership and HARD to find). I won't split them up because they are a mint pair.

04-15-2008, 11:14 PM
