Plans..
1) Osmosis- Kevin - Need to remove CDD, also I have hotchkis springs which I bought for $120, if anyone is interested, I'm selling them for $120, brand new. Decided not to install them cause of subs in my trunk. Too much hassle.
2) mikefate - mike - change rear differential fluid. swap tranny fluid to synthetic. possibly take passenger A-pillar air bag out, and run wiring thru and hardwire radar into the map light
***anyone want to buy my plp underbody panel??? 200 bucks***
3) wenger828 - derrick - CDD removal and bleeding of lines, and calipers painted. maybe find something else to do on the car as well?
4) GraphiteSportDesign - Dave - shock install, brake lines install, possibly header install if have time.
TOOLS I AM BRINGING:
~ metric socket/wrench set w/ a few open wrenches
~ additional set of deep sockets
~ vice grip wrench
~ set of metric hex/allen wrenches
~ large and small breaker bars
~ 2 jack stands
~ brake/fluid bleeder
~ spring compressor
~ propane torch

if im the mike your referring to, im still 50/50. i might go up to de's house in boston this weekend. and i just did some front end damage to my car, and also bent a rim and screwed my alignment all up. last friday was not a good day to say the least. at least me and eric went out for beers, and ended up with some champagne though. ill try and stay around this weekend and come to the meet. i have been in a helpful mood lately, so im down to lay on my back all day saturday and do some work before it gets cold

making shit up my friend was there and i told mad people about it you need step up and fucking say you took my shit the deal was for the car not the supercharger....out of your way i went out of my way....i could have fucking got another is300 and stripped out my car and dropped all that stuff into the new one....but you need a freaking car really bad so i decide to sell it to you feeling all bad....thinking since you crashed your is300 in a wall and spent all that money into it....and you go and stab people in the back and take their shit....i should've listen to raph at that time and not sell it to you....thats cool tho i've moved on i just want to point it out....i'll be looking for you and the car....when i get my new car smoke you all day long....since you don't even know how to drive an auto....

honestly, this si the stupidest arguement ever. im not taking sides. but first off - - - chris, its your own fault for not makign a written agreement, whether marc was your freidn or not, you 110% shit out of luck on the loss. and second, do you realyl think marc would have paid that much for your car knowing eh had to give the SC back? thats just stupid. did you think eh was going to take the SC off, adn go thru all that work and just hand it back? were you going to pay him for the uninstall? me and you go pretty far back, and we have always been friends, and helped each other out. i even offered to loan you money when you needed it. but seriously, let this BS go - whether or not this "deal" about the SC was made is over. the transaction is done, the car is back to stock. i dont know where the Sc went, or who has it or whatever, but you need to chalk this up to experience, and next time dont be so lackadaisical in your business ventures. you should have had marc sign something. even if you wrote a contract with crayon on a napkin, it would have been a legal, binding contract. unfoprtuantely verbal contracts cant be proven in the state of nj. so let the BS go, and either patch shit up with marc(and mayeb danny?), or just be bitter and hold the grudge. either way it doesnt matter, but dont stress over it. its over.

i still have the underbody panel hanging off my car. car is "grounded" right now. havent driven in over a week now. i still am considering keeping the panel, i think i can dremel the metal to accomodate the oil return line, and premel the front for the and piping in the way.
let me see how my fogs come out first before i go jumping into doing someone else's. let me fuck mine up and learn what to do/what not to do first. hahahaha. fi they come out good we can just swap them if you want, and ill take yours and paint them while you use mine or whatever. im still debating on going up to de's, he wants to do some custom "ss customs" work on my head/tail/fog lights

Mike has the wrench that we need and I am sure he'll bring it tomorrow. If not, his house is very close to mine.. we can just pick it up. As for re-filling it, we can probably pick up a pump from pepboys.. it makes it A LOT easier on us. My friend has it, but, he is FAR from my place.. I will try to reach him in the morning though and see if he wants to drive up to my place. If not, we can just pick it up at pepboys or autozone. :)

We finished Dave's shock install. Man, it was a P.I.T.A. Dave and I started his shock install around 9:30.. and didn't finish till like 6. We also did his ss brake lines. Dave and I haven't done the install on an IS before, so, we were kinda just taking our time and making sure we were doing it right. Thanks for Mike for directing and being the enforcer. LOL. Lesson learned and def ready for the next one. :D
JR, replaced his fluids (brake and power steering). He also wanted to do his diff, but, we didn't have time to do it. Derrick also stopped by wanting to do his springs, but, we def didn't have enough time for that. We just did his CDD.
Attendance: Dave, JR, Enrique, Mike and Derrick.

I wanna thank you guys again for helping me out, it was a learning experience for all of us. A spring/shock install is a pretty involved process. I'm sorry we couldn't do Derricks, but if anything I let him borrow my spring compressors.
I had a few issues with my car today, but I'll see if I can fix them.

haha its all good. im workin on them as we speak. i was up from 11pm to 5am in the morning and only managed to get the rear left spring on. i was working alone so it sucked. i think i used every limb i had and had my spare jack hold things up as i tightened.

10-31-2005, 09:32 AM
at least we got one car finished(dave). i would have liked to get derrick's car done, as it wasnt THAT cold yet. hopefully we catch a warm weekend before december to get ti done. if we can get 4-5 guys on it, we cna get the car jacked and have 1 person working on each strut/spring to get it done within a couple hours. the heineken def helped also. hahahha. and thanks to eric and his brother for the hospitality and the popeye's chicken and biscuits. and thanks to JR for the ride home.

what issues? im guessing with the brakes? becuuse you realyl cant fuck up the spring install. its either in or not in. let me know what brake prolems wyour experiencing. if needed, we can replace the front lines this weekend. you realyl should have oem lines in front with SS lines in rear, its got to be throwing the balance off with the brake pressure
GraphiteSportDesign
10-31-2005, 10:32 AM
Mike, the brake lines really arent an issue, the brakes still feel like stock though. However, one of my wheels is making noise. It sounds like a creeking or scratching sound 1/2 of the wheel revolution. I was thinking maybe the rotor or brake pads got misaligned or something? I mean we did step on the calipers like crazy lol, maybe we fucked something up.
ElusiveIS
10-31-2005, 10:48 AM
^ From the front? You probably need to readjust the brake pads in the calipers. Lesson learned: Do not push down on the caliper when doing the front shock, jack it up and slide the shock.. bottom first. :)
Hopefully you can figure what is causing it quickly.
GraphiteSportDesign
10-31-2005, 12:12 PM
How do I adjust the brake pads again, do I need to take apart the caliper?
Besides that, the shocks feel GREAT. I had some rattling in the front shocks, but I just tightened them down even more and now theyre fine.

Yeah, take the wheel off and check the caliper. Maybe the piston that pushing that brake pads got mis-aligned when we were stepping on it.
I'm glad you like the shocks. How much stiffer are they?

I had the wheel off and I couldn't tell what exactly was causing the problem. The rotor seemed to be on there fine, but I didn't take apart the caliper so I think that's the problem.
The shocks seem a LOT stiffer on turns, but only a little stiffer over bumps, I am satisfied.
