Anyone interested in Tech day? Inspired by the NorCal people.
It's just a little meet but at someone's house to install parts & a nice drive (if time permits).
When ?
-JULY 25th (Friday)
From 11am - 6pm
(DIY'ers need to come at 11am / The rest have been given specific times in PM's)
Where ?
-iamboo's house in Riverside
2520 Horace St.
Riverside, CA 92506
maps.yahoo.com
What kind of stuff can we do??
(DIY'ers noted in parenthesis)
-Intakes (ak, dj02, aferenz, DaZeD, iamboo, reflekt)
Someone bring a K&N filter cleaner...
-Spark Plugs (ak, dj02, iamboo)
DO NOT drop them
-Exhausts (no welding) / Axle-backs (aferenz,, nightkids, iamboo)
Make sure you have all the necessary bolts....count!
-Front-Rear Upper strut bar / RSX rear anti-sway bar / Rear Lower tie bars(ak, dj02,iamboo)
-Body kit installations (ak, TopFuel,iamboo)
Go to All American or Home Depot and buy: 3M Double Sided Tape Heavy duty 5lbs or greater.
-Clearing headlights (i have a heat gun too) (ak, nightkids1, TopFuel,iamboo, usafstud)
Buy 1 tube of "10.1 oz. Clear Silicone Window and Door Caulk" or "10.1 oz. Clear Window and Door Silicone Rubber Sealant" $3-5 each
-Painting headlights Like TopFuel / SurfinTower20BC (ak, TopFuel, SurfinTower20BC,iamboo, reflekt)
Any HIGH TEMPERATURE paint spray can $3-6 each + headlight clearing materials (look above)
-Taillights (ak, 75shot, iamboo)

Replacement only
-Indiglow Gauges (ak)
a little bit of really thin double sided tape $2

Go to any local audio shop or ebay and buy any 6 or 7 tone alarm siren. Then go to any auto/electrical shop (or Radioshack) and buy at least 15ft of 18-22 gauge wiring. Now it's time to pick a switch from RadioShack You can pick any "push-button MOMENTARY switch" (MUST be momentary). $15-20 all together
