    Cool DIY meet? or Mafia meet?

    Ok so I feel like we should hold a meet this year since the last one was an total fail (see thread) My car plans for this year is to do nothing. I seriously hope my tires can hold out. I still need to do the fuel filter, but lazy. So to get rid of the itch, I have found that working on other people's cars helps lol That's where you guys come in.

    I've held DIY meets before on the E46fanatics side. But stopped due to missing/stolen tools. So you gotta bring your own tools now (especially jackstands/low pro jacks). I have some, but they aren't up to snuff for everything, just basic stuff and some random knick knacks that could be useful. I'll borrow a set of tools from my friend too.

    As many of you guys know. I have a lift. It goes up half height which is plenty for the majority of the jobs. So you guys can have some free lift time. Obviously it's first come first serve. But we're not going to do your engine swap on it lol I have enough room to work on 3 cars at the same time (2 will have to be on jackstands). But the lift is in the back, so if you're on the lift and you're done before the others. Then sucks for you LOL

    When?
    I'm thinking some time in March. after 3/12 because DST. We'll figure it out after the poll i guess. Can you set a time limit on the poll? Iono how this poll shit works

    Edit: Poll ended and it's going to be Saturday 4/8/17

    If you don't have anything you want to do to your car, just come out and help us out. Or you can just come to learn stuff, make friends etc. I need friends, so you're helping me out lol


    I guess we should start by making a list of people that want to come, and if they want to get anything done. Specify if you want to use the lift.

    Great idea. (Bummer that your tools when missing after some. I've always been very careful about getting people their tools back and vice versa. I know the people who would likely come from the mafia to this meet would not allow that to happen).

    Dates that work (in case you can't pick multiple via the poll)
    Sat 3/18, Sat 4/8. Alternate dates Sun 3/19, 4/10.

    hmmmmmm......I would be up for coming just to hang out, but I have been wanting to put on new struts/associated supporting parts into my car to see how the ride would improve. I would just have to figure out what parts I need to buy w/112k on my suspension. Not interested in adjustability or lowering. Just want something reliable with similar to stock performance.

    I do have a new steering guibo sitting in a box too, and maybe some other parts. I havent looked in my boxes in awhile.

    I sound like a broken record at this point, but if you want a very simple OEM+ suspension refresh, here's a link to my suspension refresh thread with all parts numbers and my opinion(s) afterwards (plus maybe end links and a few parts not listed):

    My pleasure! It helps me so I can look back at what I did, and hopefully helps others that were/are in a similar situation as me back then. I figure it's a pretty mild upgrade over stock that won't break the bank, but is pretty thorough.
