Well I'm hoping to be done a little while before leaving for GB. That would give me time to go home and shower first.
Also, this.

And yeah, thats fine, you could leave it.

Furthermore, dont forget: Key Bridge costs $3 EACH CROSSING, unless you have the EZPass w/ the Baltimore commuter package...
Well I know that it took Al and Kirk like all day long to get it done.....

Ffffffuuuuuuuuu tolls. I have an EZPass, but no Baltimore commuter package :(

I think they ran into some select issues.

But it only took me maybe an hour or so to swap all 4 of my calipers. It took another hour or so to do all the bleeding I believe, but other than that...not long to do a full caliper swap and line bleed...

It took us long because we screwed up the brake fluid replacement, partially because of the new calipers.

But it was the fluid exchange (:yum:) that we muffed up and took us so long.

We thought the job was done and all the air was out of the system, so the wheels went back on, the car came down off the jacks, time to test the br--- no pressure.

Spent maybe an hour taking a break and figuring out our problem.

Back up on jacks, wheels off, fix problem, put car back together, bed in new pads, check out kirkster's gun collection, then made my way to GB

I guess that would explain it. How long do you think it will take to do everything?

Fluid, maybe an hour, pads add a half hour or so onto that because both are being done at the same time, paint??? Dunno

I'm sure you guys know this, but I'll just put it out there anyway. Don't get the brake fluid on any of your car's paint.

I was originally busy on Saturday, but my night freed up, has the reservation already been made/is there still enough room to join you guys?

m4a1mustang 05-30-2012 10:50 AM

If you decide to join us, you should go and get that aluminum sheet for your oil cooler, and we can make your block-off plate while we're sitting around drinking beer and waiting for his calipers to dry.

I'll go halfsies with you on price Shado for the panel if you can get one large enough for both our OC's. Also, I wouldn't mind picking up something to paint it black so that it won't be visible. And some velcro.
