[Joe]

OFFICIAL DATE: FEB 20th
TIME: Start around 10:00 am, go until we are done
Where: 111 Scotland Bridge Rd, York ME

Well the last install day I had went pretty well, so i have decided to do another one. I know a lot of people got things for their car for the holidays and many of you don't have a warm place to install them.


Here is what I can offer:

- Heated 1020 sq ft garage.
- Wide assorment of tools.
- the ability to disasemble your vehicle and put it back together.


What I want from you guys:

- a date to have the install day.
- who is coming.
- what we are installing.



Here is the last install day we did.

Count me in :)

I doubt I'll have anything to install, but I can drink beer, watch and make comments. (or install certain items)

[jwebsta32]

im also good at making comments :orly:, but I will assist in the install of what ever....and the removal of said alcohol

[apkarian100]

I'd be interested to here a date you guys are doing this. I could think of something to buy and install. Possibly a LED gauge cluster conversion on my RS. :)

If you want to pick a date, go ahead! Right now you are the only useful person who will be showing up. :lol:

Ok here is goes.

Either the 6th of February or 20th. Start telling me which one works and we will set it up!

you ever install E-manage in a supra? If not then I plan on doing something easy.... changing my cam gears lol

[Seoul4korea]

I've got a pretty good amount of tools i'll bring over as well.

[apkarian100]

Both work for me, but I like the 20th better.

[axis]

fmic? Nahhh, that'll take too long. I should be down for either day seeing how I just found out that I'm going back to the shop (say goodbye to overtime).

Joe, I hope you've got more tools than you had at the swap meet! I've got about 10k worth of tools so if someone needs something specific, let me know and I can bring it (impact gun? other nuematic tools, panel tools, etc.)

I have gotten a few more, like a sawzall and two more 3 ton jackstands. I also cleaned my garage and found some tools. I have pneumatic tools, just no compressor to run them :( If people do want things installed, please feel free to bring your tools that you think will help. Also, vote in the poll!!

[axis]

I didn't vote because either day works for me and I can't vote twice :-P

[Bu11dogg2]

We could easily do an FMIC kit as long as it's not an ebay knock off... they always suck.

Cams, clutchs, motor builds will have be another day :lol:

Don't worry because if I can ever catch him while he's at work i'll just return his!! I'm gonna try swinging by tomorrow and see if I can find ya.

you could bring a pulley tool? I want to do my cam gears. I can help out with the FMIC

[Joe]

I have a dremel!!!!

[apkarian100]

I got dremel too, it it makes any consolation. :lol:

Sweet, we've got about 5 dremels combined...we can all grab a corner and dremel my bumper into nothingness, hahaha!

Alright, I was informed by my better half that we are doing something on the 6th, so the Official date will be the 20th of Feburary. If you plan on coming that day, please let me know! also, let me know what you are bringing to install so I can plan accordingly.

[apkarian100]

I'll be there. I'm bringing parts to do a LED gauge cluster, like a soldering pen and some electrical things like that.:lol:

Mine is a black and decker, but it doesn't get hot enough to do any heavy gauge soldering. As for the size, it an average size......










gun :lol:

I've got a good soldering gun. I cans bring it. It will solder 8 gauge wire no problem.

[jwebsta32]

what about some 4-0

Distribution Line work. Our biggest wire size we have is .477 KCMIL

[Danny Boy]

I'll try and come by for this. I was at the swap meet you hosted a little while back and probably won't have much to install. Maybe a swaybar or something. I can bring tools and lend a hand with other people's installs though. Plus, it's an excuse to take the swap out for a cruise. :)

Yeah, a dremel WILL take forever but I'm wicked meticulous when it comes to installing things in my car. It's like therapy for me.

[Bu11dogg2]

you use the air saw to cut the big parts off and the dremel to touch it up ;)

[Seoul4korea]

4 gauge wires sounds like he's making grounding wires.

[Seoul4korea]

I'm bringing alot of tools and Cam gears.

[apkarian100]

I soldering pen's gonna work fine for me. Not too much power's going to the LEDs in the gauge cluster, so I'll be using thin gauge wire.4 gauge wires sounds like he's making grounding wires.

That's a good idea except Joe doesn't have a compressor. Sawzall it is then!LOL

As far as anything electronic goes; I've got a lot of specialty tools from working in car audio for so long so if anyone thinks they might need something obscure let me know, I might have it. I'll bring my multimeter in any case, though. Always good for troubleshooting.;)

I went to home depot last night and scoped out the compressor i want. It is a Husky Pro 26 gallon, 2 hp 135 psi one. I just got to pay a little be more off my card and i can get it! :devil:

its ok, Once I get it, you are more then welcome to come over and use it!

[jwebsta32]

Don't get it. We have same thing at work. It works no good

[bratman18]

Make sure you get a compressor with an oil lubed compressor motor!! Much quieter and much better recovery!

[jwebsta32]

Oh and if your going to be running impacts and stuff like that you are going to want a fairly large tank like 50-60gal

[Seoul4korea]

lol so much advice! how could you go wrong! I'm bringing beer is that cool??

[axis]

Make sure you get a compressor with an oil lubed compressor motor!! Much quieter and much better recovery!

And MUCH more expensive! For the simple home projects, a smaller compressor will be fine. If you're planning on using it in a business, then you're gonna need something with a little more stank to it. IMHO.

yeah but depending on size he is going to be limited on tool selection :rofl:

The one i am looking at is oil-lubed. I can run pretty much any tool with it, and painting.

As for the Beer, I am extremely offended by alcohol!!!!!!



:lol: just kidding, that is fine with me! hopefully it will be as warm as it is right now!

Do eeeeet! It's a smoking deal for what you get. To get the same thing from Craftsman, you're gonna pay over a grand for it. No thanks! And most of the time the motors are made by the same company anyhow.

Annnnnnd, while you're at it, do you maybe want to get a table saw, and a decent plunge router so I can finish my stereo system that's been collecting dust for the past 3 years?! And make sure you get some good bits for the router, too.:lol:

I own a table saw, and a band saw. The need a little work though. I also have a router I believe. I will look and see what I have. Also, if you think you could get those tools to work, you are more then welcome to use them.

[ryebread929]

how much do you have to do? my gfs 03 wrx will need her sti injectors, vf39, sti tmic, and up pipe put in.... doable???

also i need to put in my walbro and vf52 in my 08 as well as my sti lowering springs..... is any of this capable of being done..... and what should i bring if it is lol.... any help would be well worth the drive to ME.... let me know!

[Bu11dogg2]

Injectors alone take a few hours :( I doubt we'll have time to do all that.

Stuff like that takes whole day

We already have 2 FMIC installs that day

doest all have to get done... would really like to get the up pipe in. the rest we can do at my house.... and i dont know if you have the tools do do lowering springsbut i dont know where to go to get them in my 08. mine have been sitting in the boxes for a couple weeks

[Bu11dogg2]

is the DP already done?

we would need a spring compressor, unless subarude comes. I'm not touching springs without a compressor :lol:

make sure you have all of the gaskets ;) I'm sure we could put an UP in.

Bring the tubo, FMIC and injectors just in case we have time or someone that can do injectors quick.

TMIC is easy and turbo takes about 2 hours.

Bring extra coolant ;)

no promises though... the 2 FMIC installs are going first.

You're gonna want to drain some of the coolant when replacing the turbo. Also, I've got a set of spring compressors:cool: As far as my FMIC goes, AJW says it's gonna be some time before mine shows up so I'm really not holding my breath on having it in time (I'm having the core and the support painted black so it takes a bit longer):( I've gt a slew of specialty tools that I'll tote along with me to make everyones life easier 'cause I'm cool like that.:D:lol:

ok awesome.... i can just bring everything. i can do the intake and fuel pump on my own time with my 08. ive never installed a turbo however and i dont have the tools to do my springs,

and on the girls 03 all we would need help with is the up pipe and the turbo. well probably the injectors too haha. if there is time for us to tag along we will and i can help out obviously hahaha. is there a list of who is getting what done and whos going?

[Seoul4korea]

^^^ I'd just bring everything. I'll be there and i'm pretty sure w whole team of guys won't be able to work on the FMIC at the same time. If anything I'll help ya!

what is the address of the garage were heading to lol

[Seoul4korea]

I bet we could pull off installing all this ****. in fact it would make it easier with everything taken apart to do it all at once. What better time to replace the down pipe then when the turbo is off???

[Joe]

Nice, and the addy is in the OP. definately will put in the FMIC first, and the top mount shouldn't be hard at all. haven't done the other stuff, but we got a decent bunch of knowledgeable guys who will do as much as we can!

[jwebsta32]

its a maybe right now but my friend who is an ex subie tech and the guy who I have do all my work MIGHT be showing up to help/advise. He has to find out if he is working or not and if hes not he probably will be there

[Seoul4korea]

drug him and drag him along heh.

[Bu11dogg2]

:lol: we also don't want him to feel like he's gonna be working.

[subarude]

my cobb dp fits just fine to my sti catback with no adapters

[apkarian100]

Hey guys,

I don't think I'll be able to make this one now. I just got a LED taillight order for someone whose car is being featured in DSport Magazine, and he needs it finished quick.

[Bu11dogg2]

:dunno: My hanger is maxed out forward and has a small leak.

More bad news: it's confirmed that my fmic will not be here in time. Booooo. And on top of that, I'm feeling like a bag of smashed azzholes. I'm hoping I feel better by Saturday but if I don't I'll probably miss this. Stoopid cold.

75 in a 65? you can win that easy peasy ;)

Speed limits are Prima Facia evidence in NH. The PO has to prove that the speed was unreasonable, 10 over is not unreasonable.

[ryebread929]

i wont be able to afford the insurance if this hits my record.... i was thinkign of calling him and asking to take a defensive driving course.... 50 bux is better than 150 and no points on my license

[Seoul4korea]

I'm totally down to coming. we can do my cam gears! and the guy above. Randy I think we should still do you FMIC.

[Bu11dogg2]

I would, but then I would have to drive around for a week untuned with a FMIC and CAI.

If it was a stock motor I wouldn't care.

[Joe]

Alright, as long as stuff is still going down. Brit and i just picked up my 30 gallon, 135 psi compressor, fittings, and line. just need some 30 weight oil to top it off and she will be ready for use!!

[Seoul4korea]

[Seraphinwolf]

If 2.5Guy isn't coming to pick up an engine from me I might come and help out. Worse case I get bored and put in my Walbro into the SVX. quick and easy! :up:

Btw aside from my one rant I've never been pulled over for anythinnthat wasn't truely excessive or unreasonable. :rolleyes:

coming around exit 18 on 93N he was pulled over with the blues on warning people of a tow truck right in front of him putting a broken down car on a flatbed. i got over and passed with other traffic. i get up to the rest area and glance in the rear view to see the charger doing 100+ mph flying up on me. gets right on my a** and on go the blues. i pulled in the rest area and he said my tint was illegal on the front windows and was going to write me a ticket unless i removed it.....

i was super nice to him he gave me a razor and i took off my brand new tint.... then comes back and gives me a ticket and says i woulda let you off but you have a ticket in 06 and one in 08 so i see you like to speed...

i was ripppppppped :unamused:

[jwebsta32]

Ripped about the speeding or the fact that front widnow tint in nh is illegal?

[Seraphinwolf]

Sexy New cam gears. Thanks to everyone and to Justin for getting that hose on O.O Thanks to all that help esp with getting my car out of the snow.

[RCKSTR]

[jwebsta32]

I installed an H7 in a womans Volvo

[Seoul4korea]

I installed an H7 in a womans Volvo

It was super sweet. I was so proud of him at that moment. I mean the way he helped that old lady made me cry on the inside..... plus that red neck that was helping him didn't know what the F he was doing lol.

[RCKSTR]

:rofl: man I wish I could have been there for that moment in his life...

[Joe]

Tally for the day:

Rally Armors on my sisters 09 Legacy

Cam gears in the Supra

As for the Bugeye:

Uppipe, top mount, turbo, injectors, spark plugs, fuel pump. :eek:

Thanks to Justin for the food, and for everyones help. Chris thanks for the beer! Especially to Pat, without his help we wouldn't have gotten nearly all that stuff done. We wrapped up the bugeye right around 7:30, with it just needing the skidplate and the nipple put into the turbo. Note to self; buy some JB Weld. I had a blast, and I hope everyone else did too.

Oh and i believe randy fixed his driver side mirror in my driveway!

[jwebsta32]

and the TWENTY BUCKS i made on it....highest paid person at install day

[jwebsta32]

once again thanks joe for hosting

[Joe]

and the TWENTY BUCKS i made on it....highest paid person at install day

:rofl:

Yea that offset the pizza, giant ass wrench, and worthless cam gear holder :unamused: I got to return that thing today.

[RCKSTR]

wow you guys got alot done :up: so how was the up-pipe install :lol:

those are allways fun :rofl: hope the bugeye had some form of EM...

[Joe]

wow you guys got alot done :up: so how was the up-pipe install :lol:

Not as bad as i thought. Though it helped we were taking the turbo and intercooler out. The bugeye was stage 2 i believe and getting retuned today.

[axis]

I really had a lot of fun yesterday even though I still felt blah. Thanks again Joe and Britt for hosting it all, and to Justin for the great food and for bringing Pat. As stated before, we wouldn't have gotten done nearly as much without him. And thanks to Chris for supplying the yummy Coronas which kept me going all day. Oh Chris, I was just joking about your car, I still like it a lot, I just don't like working on it. Lol. I hope everyone's cars that got worked on made it home safe (i.e. the wrx with a broken boost line and the Supra with very low fluid levels). I think next time will be Randy's and my FMIC.:bull:

[axis]

Not as bad as i thought. Though it helped we were taking the turbo and intercooler out. The bugeye was stage 2 i believe and getting retuned today.

I think with everything that was done, it'd be considered a stage 4...I think. Only thing missing would be headers.

[Joe]

Yea the two FMIC are next, I just got to figure out when i can host it. I had a lot of fun and love hosting these things, so we will definitely have more. This one was much more productive than the first where we only worked on my car. :lol:

[RCKSTR]

joe can you shoot me a PM of your address just so I can get an idea of the drive IF I made it over for one...

[ryebread929]

well last night sucked after the fact lol.... car completely broke down and was overheating because we didnt burp the system after losing all the coolant!!

bled the system and topped it off on the side of the road, and the stalling out was result of the BPV being on finger tight. its running now but it has major boost creep and just spikes right out. fixing the turbo nipple is proving to be almost impossible....

gahh shes ripped apart in the driveway and the store i bought the nipple from isnt open today.....

yesterday was a blast though! lol glad i got to meet all of you and thanks so much for all of the help.

PAT I NEED YOU LMAO!

[Seoul4korea]

heh I got me some good old ATF for the hydro fan so i'm running great. Turbo's spool so much fast now!

Oh man dude! I didn't realize we hadn't burped the system. I am glad you made it home though. That nipple was proving to be a major PITA.

[Seoul4korea]

well had an issue after a test drive today. Scared the crap out of me. So I started driving it and after it warmed up I layed into it. Ran through first gear and as soon as I started to shift into second I heard a pop. After that I didn't get any pressure from the turbo. The only thing I was thinking was oh ***** I blew my back turbo. (common in 1jz) so I turned around and I heard a tinking sound. I pulled back into my drive way and popped the hood to take a look. what happened? Well the intercooler pipe we put back on last night didn't have enough of the pipe on the lower piping and all the pressure blew it off. I just pulled the pipe off and remounted it to make sure it was good. After a good ten mins she ran like a champ again.
