I had a crazy idea, let's work on our cars! 
I have a ton of stuff to work on myself:
- Replace my brake fluid.
- Replace my transmission fluid.
- Install my exhaust system.
- Replace the rear Hayame coilovers with the OEM ones.
- Dismount my old tires / mount my new tires and balance them.
I have more than that to work on, but those are the things that I'de like to tackle this weekend. I will be working on this stuff myself on both Sat. and Sun., but I will be hosting the install fest on Sun. Hopefully I don't have too much left over for Sun., but we'll see...
I checked out www.weather.com and it's going to be cold, but not unbearable. Perfect for those working on cars (since they'll have a higher body temp.). Anyway, I will be calling everyone today to find out if they can make it on Sun. I hope that more people can make it this time!
Any interest? How about someone that I don't know? I'm always down to meet new people (especially if they've got a car they tweak).

All right guys, sorry for the short notice. I'm gettin' a lot of "I can't make it's" through PM's, so let's cancel this one. I'll post a thread for the next one soon so that everyone can plan ahead of time.

Hehe, yep. For those of you who don't know... After you put the tire back on (which is more of a pain than airing it up) you have to air it up to 40 - 50 psi to get the bead to pop back into place. Rim grease helps a lot as does a compressor.
