twood Posted 6January, 2014 Report Share Posted 6January, 2014 I have a new front splitter arriving for my 964 in the next week or so that I want to fit. I also want to do an oil change, check brake pads etc. Because I will set up my 2 post hoist to do this I thought it might be a good opportunity to host a Tech Day. My work will take about 1 hour (better plan for 2 hours) and I was wondering if anyone is interested in seeing the underside of their car. Oil changes only take 10-20 minutes or so if anyone wants to do one, or any other work that is so much easier if the car is up in the air. I was thinking a Saturday afternoon or Sunday towards the end of January but am entirely flexible. Email me at ken.hill@businessmagazines.com.au if interested or have any ideas and depending on numbers we can plan how the day goes. I am located in Coorparoo.

Caledonian Posted 12January, 2014 Report Share Posted 12January, 2014 How's would Sunday the 2nd or 9th of February suit of a date? assuming Sunday is the best day for you? I would like to do a gearbox oil change if posible, I reckon that should only take an hour (ish) Even if some people don't really need any little jobs doing, i could be a great opportunity to get your car up on the hoist, get the wheels off and just have a general underbody health check.

Either date will suit me as I have nothing (that I have been told of) on either date. Does anyone else have preferences for either date? Caledonian wants to change his gearbox oil. I need to do engine oil and filter. It might be good to do a small brake bleed for no other reason than I have not done so for a long time and that definitely is much easier with two people. Anyone else? NJ photo ? I believe you are overseas? I know you were not there to pick up your T Shirt today. How does those dates suit you?

clutch-monkey Posted 13January, 2014 Report Share Posted 13January, 2014 my 911 is all good, but would be keen to chuck the 240z up there to drop the oil- pain in the ass with the sump plug where it is (911 is so much easier..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
