Sarasota/Venice - 04/26 spring install?!

Any of you guys still up for Saturday's Spring install? PM me if you want my cell or anything so we can get in touch. If you have anything that needs to be done or that you would like to know bring it and I'll help you out too! I will be bringing my solder station, dremel and all kinds of electronics equipment so if you have anything that may require those things I will have them. I need to install my O2 simulators and Heat Resistors while I am messing around with my car. If I don't fry my ECU and it works as it should then any of you in the area with test pipes or HFC and a SES should come by and I will hook you up. Help with my springs or beer will be accepted in exchange for services haha.

I am thinking around 12 in Venice unless someone in SRQ wants to let us use their Garage! . Yeah man Beer + Spring compressor + car on Jacks + High powered tools. Sounds like a party to me!

i wish i could make it but im busy all weekend...but why are u using o2 simulators? Id use the non fowler things, where it just extends the stock 02 senor out a bit from the direct flow of things, im pretty sure you can just make them your self.

This is true, all it takes is two non foulers for each side. If you're lazy, I think you might still be able to buy them off of a member on my350z who was selling them for a reasonable price. Either way I hope all works out well. I might be busy during the day, but I'll swing by when I'm free.

I would use non foulers BUT Gainesville exhaust completely stripped/crossthreaded my O2 sensors when they put them into my test pipes. so I would have to replace them in order to do the non fouler thing. Plus soldering s**t is fun!

lol yeah the scenic route. I forgot about that way! Just drive like you did on the way back from Lokey and you'll be there and back in no time!

Do two yellow premier member things show up by my name only on my computer or do you guys see them both too?

Hey did you get finished up on that spring install? I saw a IP coupe driving down clark a little after midnight but couldn't tell if that was you or not. Sorry again that I had to leave early.

Yeah man I got it done and that was me on clark road . Kt and I had to take it out for a spin and get some food. Those springs are amazing btw I am suprised no one else has gotten them, I seriously doubt that it is possible to get a better ride with a 1+ inch drop and only replacing the springs. It's alright that you had to take off man I still appreciate you coming down and helping me out! KT ordered some F-sport Springs for his IS and sais to me 'man you are going to help me install them right?' and I said ummmm. No take it to a shop
