Install meets are sometimes a clusterfuck (like when Corey and I organize an install meet and don't get a minute of lift time after 15 hours at the shop). Feel free to go to an install meet, but don't go expecting to get something done if your project requires the lift; make sure you have at least something you want to do that you can do while waiting as well.

What's on the plate? If you want my help with installing anything, I can get you a timeslot.

Front Tribeca 25mm Swaybar
Perrin Front Endlinks
Hella Supertones
Front EGT Resistor Fix
Rear Camber Bolts
Stainless steel lines all 4 corners
Brakes all 4 corners
Rear Strut Tower brace

Edit1: Nothing 'needs' a lift. But it'd make the sway bar job easier.
then I need to get my v7s mounted and balanced. Cheesy

Edit2: A major factor is that where I live doing car work is against the lease.. Which is endlessly frustrating. So a lot of simple front yard/driveway stuff Im not supposed to do at home. =(

Yes, because ultimately no matter what order we cook up here, it's always first come first serve.  Last time we expected like 6 people and there were like 13.

Andy -

These all are pretty easy, and there's absolutely no reason to get the car in the air at all. As both of you know, my driveway isn't really suitable for anything where you have to lie on the ground (since it's gravel). If you guys want to get these things done sometime in the next few weeks, we can figure something out. Now that the weather is getting nicer, I've started grilling again, so we can have some good eats as a reward for a "job well done". The only tool I don't have for a Hella install is a crimper for the wires.

Bring some good beer we can drink during/after the install, and we're even Wink

A) Does the shop have the tools to cut open my '04 WRX's stock exhaust, cut piping to specific angles and lengths (stainless steel), and weld it all back together? 

B) Can someone there give me some pointers on doing the above?

Not sure when this would be...

Nope, it's pretty much wrenching only with tire mount/balance, a lift,  and air tools.

Stay evil. It's more fun.

I'm thinking I'll see if I can get the Jeep up there saturday afternoon for a quick oil change + tire rotation/rebalance.

Does the autoshop have a grease gun or should I bring my own?
