come anyway, thats how u learn. And on top of it, we'll all just have a blast, talking and messing around. 6gc.net is kinda like a type of extended family in a way. lol

lol... i was pleasantly surprised too!
so yeah come anyway ...yay for learning on my car! hopefully dan at least knows what hes doing and can come up and help

and i have a friend whos always talking about the garage his dad owns...i'll ask what going on with that and if we can use it.

[hurley97]

nope...his dad rents it out so he can't actually use it

...keep looking...

[devilsden97]

booo hissss. lol


I need to purchase some jack stands for work on my car, so ill just toss them in back, and bring them with me.

AGAIN dont kick the stands!

[playr158]

i got my car on 4 jackstands...but it really only sits on three...celica chassis rules on stiffness...

[brianforster]

dan can probably do it himself, just dont let him touch any hoses going to a turbo and he knows what hes doing

[hurley97]

i still have to find a garage to use...

i have a 2 car garage but it only fits one car and you have to park all slanted otherwise you cant open the car door...and i dont even know what any of it is, if it was up to me id just push it all down the driveway and leave it for the garbage people
my dad parks in there, i park in the yard b/c im too lazy to clean it...

i actually wasnt even going to tell the family...i figured my dad would just realize it when he went to move my car for some reason and sees a 5spd lol my family asks too many questions so i like to just avoid them whenever possible haha

but i guess, if it must come to that, i'll tell them and clean it out...boo

how about in your driveway? interesting concept eh? its out of the road, and a large area so theres space to work.

[playr158]

driveway works it shouldn't take forever to do

[hurley97]

well smartass [miguel] ...my driveway is just long and narrow, i dont even think its allowed to be used as a driveway by code...my dads mirror is held on by duct tape b/c he keeps hitting **** on the way up lol

and theres about six kids who love to touch my car [those bastards] that use my backyard to play in (2 from my house and the neighbor has 4 grandkids)
but if it wont take that long then im sure it'll be fine

[celicurr]

depending on when it is, I'd make a trip down there to help out in whatever way I can and just hang out... I'll even bring some good beer... you know, Canadian beer lol

lol canadian beer...keep it away from me...im not good with my alcohol...i drink to much and get totally wasted and pass out...then after that, the fun starts lol.

I lived in NYC all my life this may sound lame and out of the topic but where is Poughkeepsie NY o.O

[devilsden97]

about 2 hours north of nyc.

Take the saw mill, to the taconic, ride the taconic for about an hour and a half, and your in good old poughkeepsie.

i dont think i have enough parking for this lol...everyones welcome to come hang but you may have to find street parking

one person can park in the yard maybe two but i gotta clear it with my neigbor and i can kick my dad out of the garage and one person can park there
[thats for those of you who dare try the narrow driveway, i know the celica fits but im not sure about your jetta dan...it looks small enough but i cant promise anything ]
if not one or two can park in the church lot down the street

To bad your not down south. I have access to a garage with three lifts. Plus enough tools to make you go crazy. Good luck on the swap though.
