This is for anything on your project list! It's more of that everyone can work on what they need and giving help when needed. I'll be doing fender and brake, if everything goes as its planned.
Or if nothing to do, there will be free food and drinks!my tools will be open to anyone, though my tool collection is kind of limited, there should be almost everything you may need for regular car work.

I always have projects, lol, would be interested in stopping by on any of those dates and bringing supplies as needed :-) I think my passenger door window is slipping off the track now and then so I need to tear that door apart and check it out and have some courtesy lights to install - lol, could always put in new plugs too....my list is long :-/

Anyone here from our neck of the woods planning on going to the Deals Gap Rotary Rally near Bryson City, NC April 19 - 21st? :-) It's a great time to meet other 8 owners and see some sweet rotary powered vehicles and drive some legendary roads.

Started the brakes/rotors today. Was able to enlist my wife to help paint the calipers. Cell phone pics...
Those phillips head screws in the front rotors were a huge PITA. Luckily I found an impact screwdriver.

>> Atredeus, is sunday absolutely not going to work for you?
>> BobbyDigital211, is it possible to do on Saturday 16th?
hope we can find the day works for both, and if there's anyone else planning on coming, please let me know!

So either 16th/17th for me.

Here's the final product. Pretty happy with it. The G2 Caliper paint worked pretty well. Still need to get the wheels redone by the wheel doctor, and eventually get some new tires. Leaning towards the Hankook V12's and probably go 245/35 for the size.
Should have the exhaust in a few weeks, then it looks like I'm done until we do some things around the house.

Okay lets plan this for Sunday, 17th. Seems the best day for having most of us.
I will have some burgers, hotdogs, and some drinks. Let me know if anyone wants something else.
I have jacks, but please bring your own jacks. I have only 4, and likely using them all. Come over anytime after 9:00 or 10:00. I'll send my address later today or tomorrow via pm to those who said is coming. If you are planning on coming, let me know, so that i can have enough food and drinks!

If you need to borrow the impact screwdriver, let me know. I'd just hit it with some penetrating oil and let it sit for a bit. I might be able to stop by and be a warm body to do some grunt work on either of those weekends. 16th/17th might be better as my wife will not be in town, but I'm good either way.
>All,
I'll go back on this thread and I'll try sending PM to everyone who showed interest my address. if you are planning (or even just thinking a little) about coming over and don't know my address, please PM me. I should be able to send out my address sometime tonight...
edit: I sent PM to pretty much everyone who was on last couple pages of this thread... if you didn't get my PM and would like to come, please let me know!

tact.
Other options to get the set screws out are using and punch/chisel and a hammer to spin them out or just simply drilling them. I used both methods on my 8. I didn't bother replacing them as they do nothing but hold the rotor against the hub when the wheel is off.
I will not be in attendance. I will be doing house and yard work in preparation for the upcoming baby shower the weekend after.
