View Full Version : Anyone want to work on cars in Denver?
heartbreaker 04-21-2008, 02:23 AM Just seeing if there are any denver guys that work on their cars often and would mind hanging out on a Saturday or something with an extra car in the garage. I dot have a garage so i can't really work on my car. SUCKS

e36mpwr 04-22-2008, 01:21 AM hey boosted, do you actually 'have' a shop? And when my wheels are mounted this spring, could we do a photoshoot? I've always admired your car and would love to see it in person, if not mayb we can meet up for some drives/meets? Are you planning on keepin the TOY for camping and 4wheeling this summer, b/c I'd be down for that aswell. last summer was infested with my stupid job
And uh Chubbs, your car is looking grea with those wheels! I'll be living in boulder this summer and well for the next few years and unfortunately don't have a garage this summer, but I will next summer, but I have to share it with a Supra :D But yeah we should also meet up, I have a lot of plans for the car this summer, but my apartment complex is stupid and won't let me touch the car...
E36Chubbs 04-22-2008, 02:07 AM Haha, wheels are Photoshopped black, same the with the drop unfortunately :shifty
e36mpwr 04-22-2008, 02:55 AM ^^^ oh comment revoked! Just kidding, this summer we'll have to get those wheels painted and that drop done! I'm planning on painting one set of my wheels, but I'm not sure which ones...

Yeah, I guess we could do these and then my Contours can be the winter wheels...And I should have some H&R Race springs here in the next few months.

Nice what shocks/struts are you going with? I had money in hand for bilstein or koni adjustables with H&R race springs, but ppl were flaking. But it was for the best I think, I really want coilovers, whoknows?!?

Go with coilovers or you will regret it later. I've had cars with shocks and springs and now my M3 with ground control and the adjustability is totally worth the extra $$.

I am keeping the stock shocks/struts, and just going with springs. After I buy a bike I will get some Coilovers.

+1, that's what I figure. And I would love the ability to slam my car!

Whoa, aren't you worried about blowing your stocks sturts/shocks with aftermarket lowering springs? Save your money dude and just buy the coilovers :eyecrazy
DucHuynh007 04-23-2008, 01:38 AM Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone can help me fix some stuff on my car. I need a new rack, replace the powersteering pump and hose. I have all the parts, just lack the knowledge, tools and location to do so. I would be willing to pay someone to do it for me. From what I understand they are basic jobs.

If by shop you mean a 5k sqft building where i work on cars then yes i have a shop. Its not a company just a personal spot to get away from town and wrench nomatter what time day or night. How long will it be on your wheels? I am about to throw a set on my car too. For sure a photoshoot is in order!!
The yota will be around forever. I have no plans on selling it just adding to it. Im going to paint it after this job is done should be next week. Were doing a bunch of camping this summer. I know dates that are set so far is Moab october 3rd and every weekend tel then if im not building on the truck for moab i will be wheeling and camping.
