Almost forgot!

Our first Tech Day is 3/4/17 in Oakwood, GA on the shore of Lake Lanier near Gainesville. We start around 9 but our host says arrival early is fine.

Message me here or call me at six7ate-8sevenseven-tufornine3 (encrypted to get around the 'bots)

Hosts are Tricia and Darrell

Planned: Changing a few CPSs, resoldering some RCMs, doing my front pads and bleeding my system, some audio system work on at least one car, and I'm sure a lot of other stuff.

FOOD: Contact me or Tricia to see what you can bring - if you don't want to work on your own car, but need help with it, bring food and drink for others!

 

Well, I've been looking for an excuse to hit the highway, an this is it. Count me in! I'm bringing an electric impact to the party. Makes for easy tire removal. lol. Cars good ,just coming to help an the meet an greet. I have to get permits, because hauling that much" ugly "across state line has to be illegal. I'll text for coordinates. Hoping for good weather.

 

Looking forward to meeting you Steve !
( Intellicast says there WILL be good weather )

 

Well alright George, I'm also bringing along a good RCM an CPS, an a few tools. Somebody my be in trouble, after we completely dissemble their car, may have to make it a 2 days event..rotflmao. Looking forward to seeing you.

 

Anyone want me to bring my air powered oil evacuater with the brake bleeding attachment ?
( Assuming there will be an air compressor available )

 

Please do , I've changed rear rotors an pads. I can do the fronts by myself later,(already have )but changing brake fluid by ones self is a hole nuther ballgame, without your tool. I'll use it if you don't mind. What do you recommend for fluid?

 

I'd bring it, George.

I also want to change my Diff and Trans oils. Not sure I can get new oil up into the ports without a small pump - can anyone help with that?

I don't know Tricia's addresss, I'm waiting for her to send it to me and I"ll put it up here.
In any event, she is a few miles southwest of Gainesville, GA.

 

Point yourself to:
4627 Circle Dr. Oakwood, Ga 30566

Any questions, just call me at the number in my post above.

 

Mark - You'll def need a suction pump to do the trans/diff fluid.
Don't forget to bleed the clutch slave while you're at it.

 

I did my diff with a turkey basting syringe and some clear tubing.
Took awhile, but got the job done.
Don't know about manual transmissions, but same should apply.

 

I'm bring my turkey baster also (that's just funny to say, but it works). Your pump is going to get a good workout ala_fire. . Got to go the Prez. is speaking...let's see WATZ UP!

Thanks for directions . Mark

 

One more thing, I ordered more cards, 500 this time. These work for when you see a Crossfire sitting at Walmart or the Dentist's office - or in the lane next to you at a traffic light. The last 250 went fast, I was going to order 250 more but they offered 500 for just a few dollars more (but dropped the introductory price break from last time) so I thought I'd better buy in bulk. 500 cost me just under $60

Print quality is way better than the photo below - I'll have them with me Saturday:

100 for $10
50 for $6
25 for $4

 

Eric from Ohio can provide you with a discounted room at teh Country Inn in Gainesville if you need it for Fri or Sat night.

 

Not a bad idea, maybe Sat. night...

Will also bring extra contacts for RCM if needed. hint hint.

 

My son, Joseph and I will be there. Our friend George installed a new top on the 08 and we need to replace a switch. I may bring my 05 as well. Appreciate you guys doing this!!!

 

The more the merrier. This is going to be a learning day for me. As I help others ,I'll be asking 200 questions of the guy's, I KNOW have the answers. It should be a fun day for all...C U there.....

 

I think we are up to 13 cars now. WOW.

 

We are up to 14 cars/couples.

Don't forget that our hosts are tryhing to provide sandwiches for lunch and ask you to bring drinks and add-ons like salads, etc.

Any alcohol is welcome if you bring your own.

 

Dang ! This is turning into a one day mini-dragon.

 

Sounds like a great GTG. Have a blast and post plenty of pics.
I'm interested in seeing a pic of Wallace Pruitt's new BAS top installed.
