Default Thanks Gloffer.

Thanks Mike for letting us use your garage and tools for the changing of fluids and the spring install. Also, thanks Doc, CEO2B and AZ Paradise for all your help.
The drive home felt a bit different. I am sure I will get used to the way it handles, but I think at this time, the stock springs were a bit stiffer. It looks good though with minimal fender gap, and that's the goal I wanted to achieve.
Can't wait to see everyone Friday morning.

Yes, thanks Mike!

I will have to make regular pit stops at your place with the great service your shop provides! (not to mention food and drinks!)

Interesting and hot day. Lots of fluids being exchanged with Gloffer ending up with a lot of brown, goopy, nasty smelling liquids when we had all finished. Ok, that sounded sick, but you guys were fillling up oil pans left and right.

Thanks for the hospitality Cathy and Gloffer.

I have tons of pictures of the new S2000 4x4, err Jayhawker's car; the key; and, of course, the Jehovah's witnesses scouting the area and trying to convert me today

It was great having all those S2000's in the garage and driveway. It was a little hot, but hey we're tough, right. Let's everbody coordinate our mileage's now, so that Phoenix tech days are only done from October to April. With the spring installation, I am now convinced, that as a group, we can do just about anything to an S2000.

To the bitter end I was a "gracious" host and "let" jayhawker beat me in five straight games of pool. Just after jayhawker left, sprchrg showed up. He kept me company while I cleaned up the huge mess you guys left. This morning, I'm off too AutoZone to get rid of about 25 qts of assorted S2000 fluids. Hopefully they won't kick me out after the first container.

Hey, walkabt where are those pictures? I think you should PM xviper a picture of those tranny crush washers to use in his DIY tranny change tutorial. Those used crush washers are an excellent example of why you shouldn't take your S2000 to a dealer for simple fluid changes.

Thanks Mike!

It was a great learning experience and reinforces the poor quality of work you get done at the dealerships.

Look forward to the next tech day.
