Hey Guys, you're welcome at my place on Sat. Would like to get an early start, say 9am, because I need to bolt about 3pm, 4pm at the latest. Installing gauges and 15mm spacers if they arrive in time. New system is in now along with many carbon fiber pieces -- looks hot!!!

U could definitely do them. I've never done lines before, but sure not to hard.

I just order yesterday from Fluid Fluids-Super Blue ATE brake fluid, supposed to be good. And new plugs.

I can on Sunday (if not racing which if it's gonna be kinda raining not happening).

^ No because you have 9.5 inch wide rims and I only have 8.5 inch. In comparable terms, you are at a 25 offset, very close to being the same.

I would do Sunday but I have to go up north...

I really need to get my brakes done.... Grinding now.

I'm hoping to get it done this weekend and I'm willing to host Sunday...

But I want to get the calipers off Saturday so I can paint them.

Will someone with some experience come help Saturday and Sunday??? Help!!!

Please!!! There's beer and food in it for you!!!

I have my winter car out so I can leave the car on stands over the weekend.

Oh, I guess I need to borrow or buy some stands and borrow a jack

Cool man! If it's not raining I want to try and do the swap tomorrow, but looks like it is going to. Bah

I found a diy on it, without having to take off the front bumper to get the whole unit out.
