mmm, I'm sure we can do it (ability wise) but time may beat us on that one Agro... let's see who offers to come along and help and then decide if we can tackle it.

Yeah, I should be right for at least some of the day. No work needed on mine at the moment so I'll assist with the BBQ, spanner fetching, etc. :)

[commercial plug] If anyone needs any parts, etc. let me know at MX5 Mania ASAP and I'll bring them up on the day (as long as they all fit in an MX5 boot :? ) [/commercial plug] :D

Whoever does this, if you're doing the "use a breaker bar and snap the starter to break the crank bolt" trick - don't brace on anything on the car... speaking from experience... :shock:

I should be making another appearance in South St within the next month too. Look out, Bevan and maxwolfie (you dirty piker :p)

Yeah, come on up Agro. You can stay at my place with the wife and 3 kids rent free. I get to drive about in the Crystal Blue Beauty With Facelift from time to time though!

The Qld Dodgy Guys and Gals can knock out your timing belt in a mornings fun and Heineken riddled excitement. Sabre's a wizz at everything, but don't let him near a breaker bar or Kam near your thermosensor :lol: :lol:

Egg, we can fit two cars in the garage, three in the backyard, two under the carport and two in the front driveway, so plenty of room to have some fun.

Sabre, i heed your warning - I'm sure there are safer ways to get the thing undone :D

Jules, all you'll end up with is a paint job for your nails and the privelege of cleaning and polishing the Crystal palace when her ladyship has done with using it. She'll be off at Jupiters chasing some high roller in white shoes.... :mrgreen: :roll: :P

Never fear Agro - we'll look after you, no need to run off to Bananaland! :mrgreen:

Maxine won't be there. I predict he'll be hungover. :mrgreen:

Hopefully i'll be there. Will have to check the calender though.
I need:
    Oil and filter change
    Oil filter relocation kit installed
    Gearbox oil change
    Leaking exhaust (only at the gasket). Worked a charm after the last B.D.D.D. up until the diff install. Blew after the first week. :|
    If we have time, fuel filter change. (Almost at 100,000km so couldn't hurt doing it.


Wouldn't mind having a go at the claying either. :)
