BBQ @ Darren's Shop this Saturday! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hey Portland area 86ers, if you didn't get my text this morning, then this is your reminder. Join a bunch of us at my SE Portland shop at 1pm on Saturday, April 27th, for a BBQ and tinker session. Potluck style, so bring something to throw on the Q and a few beverages to consume.

Let me know if you want to work on your car. I think I am lowering a couple of cars... @ilpad and spmeone else that I forget at the moment.

Mike @indesign and I will be swapping suspension so should be quick and easy as we won't need to take springs off, then I'll be installing Koni Yellow with RCE Yellow springs in the rear. Fronts aren't here yet so I'll install the rest later.

That works!

Car desperately needs some low.

Lverasky · 04-23-2013, 12:47 PM

I off at 1PM, will come straight to the BBQ.

I swung by Perrin at lunch today and @PERRIN_Maladin was kind enough to hook us up with some swag for the BBQ. Everyone on the Perrin staff is nothing short of awesome and their support of the community is top notch. Make sure u guys give them a shout out whenever possible!

Hey Darren. I have engine oil, trans oil, diff oil, and a transmission bushing to do. It's all stuff I can do on my own at my house but the lift would make it super easy. My only real concern is nicking the fresh dip job trying to maneuver it back to the lift. If someone has some more technical stuff then let the lift go to them.

I bought a case of 12 of the Motul Gear 300 and only need 2 for myself since I'm doing Pentosin in the tranny. I will bring and sell for $20 each for those that want to do the rear diff. It will also work for the tranny too (MT).

Shouldn't be a problem, Kevin. We can push it back there using the wheels is grips instead of the body.

Looks like @Touge_ninja is coming down from Seattle with a few other peeps!

This should be awesome!

NickFRS · 04-24-2013, 06:32 PM

This is awesome! I'm doing a odd job sat morning to make some $$ for food. prob pick up my BBQ after that and head to Darrens. The BBQ i'm getting is my smaller one that will fit in the back of the Impreza. That being said if anyone else has a smaller BBQ it might be a good idea to bring.

I'll be doing my short shifter and maybe the trans mount bushing if the lift is free!

I have an electric BBQ, so it's a quasi BBQ if you guys need me to bring it.

This event was started by you, so you get first dibs on the lift, Nick!
