The DIY shop is wanting to know if anyone will be requiring any special fluids or what not so they can be sure to have stuff in stock for us. So far i know of a lot of suspension work going on but what else are people planning to do there?

So this is what I'm thinking about doing...

-Change all four rotors & pads
-Bleed brakes and refill with new fluid
-Transmission fluid
-Power Steering fluid
-Roll Driver Side Front Fender... *ghmmm Josh
-Might relocate wire harness in the same fender
-Possibly replace some susp. bushings
-Going to install 3k HID's in my fogs.
-Inspect Timing belt, anyone have experience installing one (w/ Water Pump)?
-Might change plugs while the cover is off, inspect for flooded oil.
-Inspect Throttle body for grime, PCV valve, etc.
-Inspect Exhaust for leaks, check o2 sensors, check oil/HG for leaks, etc.
-if there's time I might change the fuel filter.

This is a big list for one day and I will need some help.
Hopefully a few prof. mechanics & Neloc friends are there to assist.

Kelly and I will be bringing food, drinks, and hopefully a healthy dog

thats a serious list. yes i will have the fender roller. and are you bringing your own trans and power steering fluid?

No kidding, I'll never get all of that done. I might do the pads and rotors
next weekend to free up time on the 12th. I'll bring the trans and power
steering fluid if necessary. I'm not sure how this shop wants to charge
for time. They might want to make money on fluids which is cool by
me. I want to support them since we're meeting at their shop

That type of garage should have a spring compressor...if it doesn't...it's not a garage for any club lexus member.

I will come check it out.

camelflage

pretty sure they do.

wow, thats a long list tabaka, I think you could knock most of that out except for the suspension bushings, just the lower control arm bushings alone takes a whole day.

I may come out to install my midpipe on the lift, I've been too lazy to crawl under the car lately.

Yeah, I know it's a long, long list. I'm going to swap the rotors and pads this weekend and handle the bushings next Spring. I just got an alignment and
am not in the mood to get another so quickly.

I'm going to leave the timing belt for a professional indy shop unless we have a good mechanic on hand.

I'll try to make it out and lend a helping hand. Nothing really planned for my car now maybe I'll try and clean up the engine bay ha ha. I can bring some turkey burgers, plates, cups etc...
