[taylor]

I can sort BBQ and gas if Adam comes and grabs it on the trailor

[Adam.Findlay]

i dont have a trailor but yeah. good plan. archie ill txt him even though he doesnt have a vr-4 anymore. ahah taylor on cvr4 at 1.30am. and me doing my uni asignment.

[taylor]

I have trailor here. Yea. Joys of not being able to sleap and a phone with push email

[scott.mohekey]

I'll be bringing the following:

• Air compressor and assorted air tools (I want to swap some springs around and its FAR easier with a compressor).
• Large jack.
• Assorted sockets (1/2" drive, shallow and deep 3/8" drive, etc).
• Soldering iron.
• Multimeter.
• Laptop for evoscan.

Is there anything else anyone can think of?

[taylor]

ok. i will be bringing my laptop aswell.

Probably not worth me bringing my new toolset. With you and adam having powerbuilt tools there, probably not a good idea to have a third set.

Scott can you bring the panel filter. Il bring $$

I need to:
regrease an inner cv.
swap intercoolers.
Fix interior light
evoscan my car

[scott.mohekey]

Sure Taylor, I can bring the boost gauge too if you want.

My todo list is:

• Remove driver's side front wheel fender.
• Install alarm siren behind front wheel fender.
• Install electronic boost controller ECU behind front wheel fender.
• Install electronic boost gauge sensor in engine bay.
• Change engine oil and filter, installing oil pressure and temp sensors in sandwich plate.
• MAYBE change filter and flush auto trans fluid, installing oil pressure temp sensors in sandwich plate (Could just change filter).
• MAYBE shift battery to boot.
• Install new driver's side front wheel fender.
• Remove front seats.
• Remove center floor console.
• Remove entire dash.
• Remove turbo timer.
• Remove dash loom.
• Install new dash loom with side air bag wiring.
• MAYBE install alarm.
• Install wiring for various gauges.
• Run wiring for amps and speakers.
• Install new speakers.
• Reinstall dash.
• Reinstall center floor console.
• Install front seats with side airbags from crashed car.
• Remove front and rear suspension struts.
• Remove super low king springs from rear struts.
• Install tanabe sustec low springs on rear monroe struts and front monroe struts from project car.
• Reinstall front and rear struts.
• Remove side skirts.
• Test fit super vr4 side skirts.
• Install front and rear braces.
• Install replacement bonnet.

And probably some other things I've forgotten.

I doubt I'll be able to get through all of this, but I can certainly try.

[Patryn999]

Well, I have an average gas-bottle and 3-burner bbq but someone might have one thats better. I'm trying to get a friend (old president of Canterbury Motosoc) who currently has their car-trailer to move it to outside your house on Friday after work. He owes me after I fixed electrics on 3 of his cars over the last few years

Just hoping my car isn't so low it cant get up onto the ramp XD

Uh, I'll be coming

[scott.mohekey]

Nothing a few planks of wood won't fix.

[Johny]

• Large jack.
• Assorted sockets (1/2" drive, shallow and deep 3/8" drive, etc).
• Soldering iron.
• Multimeter.
• Laptop for evoscan.

Is there anything else anyone can think of?

clock and rearview mirror? lol
or you talking about tools?

[scott.mohekey]

Tools, parts, anything. Do you want me to bring a spare rear view mirror, I have one somewhere. And I think Adam was going to give up his clock.

[Johny]

thats tru thats what i get for trying to remember things for myself haha

[Goku]

Wow, sounds like it's going to be a good day lol

Yea, I won't be able to make it at this stage, there are things I have to after being away for 2 weeks.

However, I have some news about an upcoming trackday

[Archie]

Shakes you guys have heaps to do! I'll come along and see if i can help out. I also can prob get a BBQ if you want. And a van or hilux surf if some big things need taking?

[mattnz]

Yeah, could still be keen. Need to sort out my ABS woes. Does anyone have a spare ABS accumulator? And maybe Evoscan?

[scott.mohekey]

Matt, if you're talking about the abs ecu, I MIGHT have one.

[Patryn999]

Yeah, also we will have at least one (mine) openport 2.0 cable and evoscan, I haven't played with it enough to be familar but I'm sure it can't be harder than some of the UI's I've done battle with in the past...

[scott.mohekey]

Is the openport 2.0 cable required? I have an openport 1.3 cable.

[mattnz]

The accumulator is for storing pressure in the ABS system, I don't know exactly what they look like in the VR4, but should be near the pump.
