We can have it here at my place, my flatmate has no problem the others aren't here so I made the decision for them.
There is enough room for 4-6 cars up the drive way at a time., I have basic limited tools (spanners, socket set, screw drivers etc but no jacks, stands or ramps sorry) so bring what you need/
We have a BBQ here or the waterfront for fush and chups is 5 min away and i'll park my scooter out the front as supercheap or repco is 5 min away if we need an emergency parts run.
Rhys if your painting calipers goes make sure you have enough time and are first up the drive as you may be last to leave, btw do you have enough paint for two cars???

I got no problem bringing jack n 4 stands but I will prob leave before it is all done so I will leave them in your care Phil. Would suggest to clean em with spray carbie clean as it doesn't wet the calipers , just don't get it on the dust boots .

I've got a can of blue and a can of clear- I'm happy to get another can of colour if you want to do yours too- as a thank you for letting us use your place.

Alternatively I could just prep em for painting tomorrow and do the actual painting next weekend.

I've decided I'll just go and buy a pair of stands and a jack tomorrow- I'll need them in future anyways so I should be right. Is there a chat thing for AGT?

I would love to borrow a breaker bar or a long socket set arm thingy to get more leverage to undo the spring nuts on my exhaust. (Have sockets just need more leverage to get the nuts off that or muscles )

Unless there's a special tool for getting the O2 sensor I'm all good

Ill be bringing tomorrow:
Socket Set
Jack Stands
Jack
AutoExe Header
Some Spanners
Ajustable Spanner

Hey Phil can ya PM me ya address please?
Rhys don't rush in and buy a rubbish jack just for tomorrow cause those super cheap and autobahn jacks are not worth the money , just don't want Ya to be ripped off ( they are ok for light stuff but if ya want it for years have a look at Transquip web site.)
Times like this I wish I had my own workshop!

hahaha will you remember to check the thread though??

I thought a supercheap jack would be OK for occasional use but I'll take your word for it, thanks mate.

I guess we can talk about brands and such tomorrow.

Cool I will get the petrol skateboards out of the shed and fix them tomorrow.
Maybe we can get one working so we can play on it.
Marc, I might set up a camera so you can log in and watch

I was thinking maybe 9:30-10, give me a chance to sleep in a bit then get a coffee and breakfast.
I also have my 1.8 if anyone wants to pull it apart to see what failed, I dont think its that bad. I still have the loom, starter, ECU and alternator.
