Yeah, you won't regret doing the diff fluid. I did mine last year at the tech day Tom had at his shop. I only had about 8k on the car and it was some nasty stuff. I plan on changing mine every 8k or so for good measure.

BTW: Does anyone have any extra washers for the diff, tranny and oil pan? I forgot to place my order in time. I am going to try to see if the local dealer can get some by friday, but trying to have a backup plan.

Ok so its going to be like 15' out on saturday and the little heater I have will not be able to heat the garage while we keep opening and closing the garage doors... We'll all freeze... trust me. Its fine if we let it heat up the garage and don't open the bay doors but as soon as we do the heat will go out the door literaly... so I'm thinking abouot postponing this until a later date.?..

Can I have some imput here and is what you guys think?

I am fine with whatever you decide John. It is very nice of you to hold these events for us all the time, so whatever you think is good is fine with me. Personaly, I was concerned about traction with all the sand/ice and I really didnt want to get any salt under my car anyway.

But don't we have a Carbon Fiber hood there that we can just toss into a fire to heat up the garage?!?!?!?

I'm sure I could bring a few other spare parts that I have to toss into the fire






JUST KIDDING!!!!

Your call John! It will be cold! And if your heater will not be able to keep up with the size of your garage... go ahead and postpone it

I would offer to bring two of my space heaters over to help with heating... but my buddy that has Patriots Season Tickets has them... and he is now away... so there is no way I could get them.

Your call John!
