Thumbs up Sunday Install Days

Hey whats up everyone. For the past couple sundays i've been doing small things here and there to the civic like spark plugs, or painting stuff or whatever. If anyone has something they wanna do, or juss wanna come chill out or whatever then ur welcome to come over. I just finished a little garage project, and im startin to build up a nice set of tools. Anyways just post up here if anyone wants to do something to there ride, cuz ur welcome to come over and do it up! Today for example im gonna be changing the cardboard in the trunk to mdf, cuz my sub moves around too much when cornering! I might also change my oil if I have enuf time!

Landin... Why don't you goto Home Depot, and get a scrap piece of 3/4" plywood. It's thick, and half the weight. As for tying your sub box down... get some L brackets and screw them into the 4 corners of your box. Thing won't move even if you wanted it to!

mike:sweet!! DOnt install them yet....i might get some if they sound/feel nice!!

Dna: Ive already completed my trunk set-up. Its not super duper heavy, weighs less than my subs/wheels etc... With a custom turbo it wont really matter

Player: shure man...it should take about 20 minutes to do, as long as ur bolts arent gay!

Anyone else gotta install sumtin?

^^ it will be expensive no matter what.

Either I have to fabricate the mounts, buy a new rearend with the brackets, or buy the kit. It's still gonna cost

Hey peeps, seeing as how everyone will be checking this thread, I was wondering that maybe after your install party at Landins, we could all cruise to Gatineau Park for an awsome photo shoot. It's awsome outside, and there isn't a cloud in site.

Should be good for a nice sunset shoot. Was thinking some time around 6:30-7 (if your interested, you can call me on my cell. 797-7080

If I don't hear back from people by 5:30-6 then all assume it's a no-go. Sheena and myself might still go though.
