SOCAL MEET: Let's organize a MOD day!!! - LotusTalk

plastique999 · 09-11-2008, 07:15 AM

I figured almost everyone of us mods. our Lotus.' I also find the camraderie extremely helpful when it comes to upgrades. Some of us are more mechanically and electrically proficient than others (I am neither), and can pass on that knowledge to others...

I wanted to see if anyone was interested in meeting up on a future day to help each other mod. their Lotus. This could be anything from the "improving your A/C mod," "extending the range of your alarm key fob," up to removing your front clam (maybe...)

DRS Welcome to DRS has graciously offered their grounds where we could all meet up on a weekend, and help each other with simple installs and mods!

*DATE: November 22, 2008 9:00 A.M.

* La Habra ,CA 90631
* PHONE: 562.694.2226
* FAX: 562.694.5244

Im down.. count me in. Even though I do all my own work im always down for a meet.

knucklehead · 09-11-2008, 08:22 AM

If we did this on a weekend we could go karting at the Kart Factory after.

I'm in.

Murix · 09-11-2008, 08:36 AM

I hang out with a bunch of friends on Saturdays and work on cars.

Throw in some karting and I will show up.

EBTurbo · 09-11-2008, 08:50 AM

I would be down to help you guys out. that a/c mod literally only takes about 60sec. that hardest parts is vacuuming the aluminum shaving up. Kart Factory is only 1mi from the shop here at DRS.

EBTurbo · 09-11-2008, 09:34 AM

I just had a quick talk over with the boss and if its alright with you guys would you be willing to move the venue to DRS? Exclusive Atuosport is only 2mi from our location. if you guys do decide to come we will break out the BBQ and provide some lunch. What do you guys think??

Murix · 09-11-2008, 09:39 AM

You had me at lift.

xziteme · 09-11-2008, 09:59 AM

Count me in if it's on a Sunday. I have Manly's motor mounts that are waiting to be installed.

sleeprfocus · 09-11-2008, 10:04 AM

Hell, I'm down for some BBQ at DRS. Weekends only for me though, but I'm out weekend of the 20th, hopefully you guys can plan this after that weekend. Is Kris going to be there?

ruggedbert · 09-11-2008, 10:40 AM

Can we also do the shifter reinforcement mod? I'm down

intofx · 09-11-2008, 10:41 AM

Randy Chase · 09-11-2008, 10:47 AM

Woohoo! A day to honor the moderators!! YAY!

knucklehead · 09-11-2008, 11:06 AM

I should be getting my engine damper from ForcedFed. We could install one car with the mounts and one with the damper and see what the difference is.

**How did the moderators get involved?

FLuXeXigeS · 09-11-2008, 11:11 AM

i want to do the shifter reinforcer mod and i am also getting a set of the engine mounts from Manly so i may want them installed as well...woohoo

kaz · 09-11-2008, 11:19 AM

I'm down...Kart Factory will be fun it's getting cooler these days - hope they have the projector working - when are we thinking about this happening?

EB Turbo, thanks for the hospitality....let's do this at DRS.
The thing we have to decide now is a date. I'd like to give people enough time to order parts if they are interested in installing. Therefore, I'm thinking of november 22 ... how does this sound?
We could then go karting afterwards as well.
I don't want to conflict with other meets (10/18-10/19 is LCS at Spring Mtn., 10/25 wknd is Hearst castle meet). Next option would be in Nov.

Temporary list:

1. plastique999
2. knucklehead
3. Iman
4. Murix
5. EBTurbo (DRS sponsor)
6. DMBrown34
7. Xziteme
8. Sleeprfocus
9. ruggedBert
10. FluxexigeS
11. kaz

Mods:

1. A/C mod
2. alarm remote range increase
3. shifter reenforcer
4. engine mounts
5. engine damper
6.
7.

FLuXeXigeS · 09-11-2008, 12:06 PM

so many events coming up for september and october...just my opinion and/or suggestion: november might be a better choice, more time for people to get parts in etc. less conflicting event dates...except SEMA which is on the 1st week.

but whatever date we decide i will try my best to be there, to help and get help

-cheers!
