Christchurch Workshop Day - BBQ - CVR4 Meet

[taylor]

Okay. Carl (Patryn999) needs his ayc diff replaced. Sounds like will be doing it at Adams flat in Upper Riccarton next Sunday the 23rd may.

Be really good to see / meet some CHCH members and their cars.

Good oppertunity to get any little jobs done on your car with a hand from lots of like minded people.

Whos Keen?

p.s anyone in CHCH have a gaurd roller the could bring to the workshop day??

[Patryn999]

Oh, Oh. I'm keen haha...

[Adam.Findlay]

yip hopefully you can sort the short shifter buy out in time so we can all do that too

[scott.mohekey]

I'll have a bunch of stuff to do on my car that weekend too. New side skirts, new speakers, two amps, battery to boot, new cold air feed, suspension change, swap bearings from old car, etc..

[Adam.Findlay]

its a plan then. well your axle stands are still here as is your engine hoist so we are good to go. i have a soldering iron. heat shrink and solder too for any electrical stuff

[Patryn999]

If we need anymore in the way of soldering iron's I have a nice gas one, as well as a Wella temp-controlled base station one. Should probably bring a multimeter along as well in case anyone has electrical issues. Being an electrical engineer I'm good at that, just not the worlds best application mechanic!

If anyone has blown amps/etc I can take a quick squizz (takes about 5-10 mins, mostly dismantling) and tell you if its gona be a quick $5 of parts fix, or something that requires further investigation.

[Johny]

oooh you've struck my interest here lol

[scott.mohekey]

I have a couple of soldering irons I can bring along as well. If all goes to plan I'll be stripping my dash and front seats out, rewiring the dash loom with a replacement (one that has side airbag support), wiring in a pair of amps (one for the door speakers, one for a sub), putting in wires for the new speakers, moving the battery to the boot etc. Should be fun!

Funny how us vr4 owners all have similar intrests eh.

I should have a 7202 ecu. I have never checked but I'd assume so being a 1998 pfl. Keen to have a small fiddle with ecuflash/evoscan. But nothing major until I get a wideband.

Be good to have a big meet aye. Maybe we should pm some chch members about the meet?
