I have a TON to get done this weekend. Oil change, manual transmission flush, Brake fluid change, clutch fluid change, new vacuum lines, new serp belt, replacing a few missing clutch pedal parts, installing my new exhaust, and hopefully getting the wiring done so I can drive the car for the first time since I got it. Not shown, but I am also doing a coolant flush, spark plugs and wires, and brake pads
I am not sure if I will get the Koni's installed this weekend, but I am hoping to.
Are you kidding, with all that I see you have Sunday open. My 914 need stainless brake hoses installed.
Beer & Brats, call me.
No kidding.
Finish sand + prep yesterdays bodywork on the Tacoma, shoot base + clear coat, install new bumper, old trim and lights, hang tailgate, remove and rehang + straighten front bumper+trim+brackets, cut+buff clear coat later today when it's hard.
On the Goddamn Miata - reinstall brakes + SS lines, swap narrower washers under butterfly brace retaining bolts for more clearance, torque all suspension fasteners, do rough alignment. Pull radiator, valve cover, crank pulley - do timing belt service - fluid changes, plugs, wires, reinstall interior.
Install aluminum under tray on M3
Roll Sprite out of garage, turn around, start on bodywork on rear valance.
I ~will~ have all the vehicles at a point of not NEEDING any work in the near future. Then I'll see what it's like to just drive 'em for a while till they're all messed up again.
I picked up a new set of wheels and tires to replace the tread-less tires my girlfriend was running around on in her 95' corolla.
Broke one wheels stud Which led to breaking a caliper mount bolt 187k plus pennsylvania makes for lots of rust
Brakes and tires were a piece of cake.
Noticed it was over 2 quarts low on oil because the oil pressure light would come on when I was bedding in the brakes. Im pretty sure 1.8 liters only runs 4 quarts total

How did you decide on that ENEOS gear oil? A place near my house has it but I never heard of it before. I was going to try it in my 2nd gen. RX7 transmission.
I spent four hours changing and trying to reset an HVAC actuator on my wife's Trailblazer.
The TrailblazerEnvoy forum has a 34 page discussion with instructions.
Not really working right either. I gave up and cleaned the car and then spent the balance of the day doing yard work.
GM Engineers suck.

I get my parts wholesale (the bennys of working in auto parts sales.), and my wholesaler had Eneos in stock, and I have always liked their bottle shape...
oh, as an update, I got alot less done than I had planned. Looks like the transmission has to come back out, cuz I am retarded, so the Koni's will have to wait.
I got the spark plugs, coolant, oil, and brake bleeding done, bolted up the drive shaft, installed brake pedal, flushed and changed the brake fluid, changed pads, as well as a little bit of wiring stuff done.
tomorrow I will have to remove the transmission in order to install the clutch CORRECTLY this time, re-install the trans, change the gear oil, then finish wiring the car, figure out the vacuum lines, and get it running for the first time in over 8 months!
