yah, maybe we should meet up and bbq once the rain stops. Anyone looking to do anything to their car? Could do an install day with the food if anyone is planning on messing with their ride... I know I'll be putting new springs on shortly after the wheels come in.

I'm alright if I'm working with someone who has an idea what they're doing, but I wouldn't call myself an expert by any stretch. I had an 08 wrangler, so I did a lot of work on that (lift, bumpers, winch, etc.). I'd be happy to lend a hand, just need to find a good date and time.

lol! if i had parts to put on that'd be sweet! but i'm definately willing to get my hands dirty for someone else's benefit! i've done all sortsa stuff to the saab i used to have. pretty much a full head-gasket replacement, fuel pump (four times, once in an autozone parking lot) and i'd also be willing to chip in for some food for a bbq! sounds awesome to me. only thing holding me back is i graduate the 29th, AND, i work TONS! which isn't all bad... i'm tryin to save for a chip, coilovers, and thinkin some tint too.

dude, if i wasn't working tonight i would totally be in for that.... but i'm deliverin and it's a little late to get someone to cover. lol! sorry man.

i'll tell ya what though, after replacing a few fuel pumps....you get to LOVE the smell of gas! just do yourself a favor....and DON'T spill ANY in your car. it'll wreak of gas forever after that.

my brother, my dad, and i are all SAAB pros...and SAAB fuel pumps really suck to get out. a4mods.com makes it look super easy for the Audi pump replacement. so, if you haven't been there yet, check it out. it might be pretty similar. if not...idk man. lol!

sorry again for my busy week. Final Exams and work are gettin me down.
