Looks like it's gonna be sunny this weekend.
so whos up for painting caliper and drums this weekend?

who

where
when
how

:hgrin:

we should plan to throw a install meet soon too

ME ME ME ME ME ME!!!!!!!

I work until 2 pm on Saturday, so I can meet up afterwards.

we all going to chip in for paint/primer, and sand paper?

I think I should get this done too .. seeing how I want rims (+etc etc) but well have plans Saturday evening so cannot exactly take that trip then, though I truly wonder how hard it is to do to paint caliper & drums by oneself - I mean others do it right? Someone wanna fill this noob in on how? And/or perhaps shove in the direction of a DIY guide :)

As for an install meet .. nothing to install here really (unless I actually purchase the stuff .. but then really a shop should take care of me - as I'd hope they do), but I'd come to watch if available ;)

Calipers and drums = easy as all hell, but alot of work, especially if they've never been done before. It involves ALOT of sanding, and cleaning, than priming, and finally painting. It's alot of work, but well worth it in the long run.

i can hook up the sand paper and tape,save some $$$,i have lots of paper

I have this giagantic sander made for sanding huge things, I put a steel brush wheel in it (it spins around and around) and it eats up anything near it, used it to redo my rims. It had 4 rims stripped down in about 30 minutes, I bet it could do brakes too if your kinda careful.

cool, i'm in !

how much would be break pads. front and back. anybody knows?

KVR Carbon pads are $60
You need shoes/drums for the rear, not sure what that would cost.
Gary's Automotive is probably the best/cheapest in town for brakes

sweet...sat @ 2:30..i'm down.

I gotta do a DIY on my bike to NOT have any parking lights on my bike. Stupid thing drained my battery.

grrr

anyways, where is this goin down?

Hey I'm down to learn too ... Just lemme know where/when

Bought my Camber Kit today ... at KVR ... so I'll pick it up tomorrow. Anyone know how to roll fenders ??? I dont want to chance it, hear its easy. Think Landin did his right ? Maybe he could show me how to do mine.

Saturday at 2:30 sounds good to me!

Where we doin this??

What do wee need?

we need a place donor
well you can all hit up my place but it's kinda far + gravel driveway with sometimes animal shit on it lol

As long as theres room for a few cars it's all good :D

yah i did my own fenders.....not super hard gotta be really carefull and also re-paint the inside to unsure no metal is exposed. I can show you if you want.
Sorry guys im out for the weekend. IM dedicating this weekend to side-fx shit as I am going to start recording on some of the songs, so I need to get ready!
Ill see everyone on friday tho!

So whats the dilio? we going to hammer out details tonight??

guess so.. how many are u comming? well there are enough driveway for about 20 cars anyways lol. we could thorw a BBQ too if you want.
you can come to my place but need some tools and stuff

Ok Well Shaneer said he would hook us up with paper and tape, so I'll pick up a can of silver caliper paint and silver primer from crappy tire.

Won Young, the only tools you will need is your car jack.

Oh I'll bring some plastic as well, this way we won't end up painting our cars.

um.. Can anyone bring a jack (like the one Freddy has) this way it will be faster to do more cars at once, as you can lift the whole front or rear of the car with one jack

my car needs a solid engine wash though

Norek, last time I cleaned my engine I used that orange degreaser from Crappy Tire, let it sit for 10 min. and then scrubbed the hell out of the engine.. After that sprayed down with water, and put tire foam on as the final step :giggle: Not the greatest idea, cuz it got sticky, put it looked good :hgrin: I gotta find an engine detailer to use instead of tire foam this time lol

Im down for an engine wash and caliper paint. I'm gonna have to go and buy a can of black caliper paint as for the engine washing stuff...what do I need?

I'll bring my pressure washer too.

someone bring me a lawn chair.

i'm gonna drink beer and watch. i'm a nice friend like that.
