Thumbs up Tune-up The Old Jalopies Meet

I have been talking to a bunch of guys and it seems that everyone wants to meet and do something constructive.

Here is a suggestion. We all meet at a spot where we can perform tune-ups on our cars. I will put out the word to some local shops if you think they have the space to host our cars.

We could post a grocery list for users to pick up and install them all together. We have to stop meeting to just eat. I am putting on too much weight!

Post your ideas!

Oh yeah SR guys can show up so we can all drool as you tune up your rides

Um I think we should get the parts before hand or try to get as many as we can. We should start up a list.

Plugs
Wires
Air Filter
Oil Filter
Fuel Filter

Add to the list.......

Plugs - Nissan OEM
Wires - Nissan OEM
Air Filter - Nissan OEM
Oil Filter - Nissan OEM
Fuel Filter - Nissan OEM

That is what I got. I haven't gotten the wires yet. I was just thinking of doing the plugs. My wires look pretty good.

I would order the parts from courtesynissan. They are probably the best place to order from. I don't know if you guys want to get crazy and change the PCV valve, I saw the install is a little hard, but we can always try (BTW the part only costs like $4)

When you guys want to do this? I am thinking of getting the accel wires, they seem to be cool. Need the good stuff because I wouldn't be able to afford an SR anytime soon.

Two car garage with a driveway that fits 8 tight. 6 comfortable.

I don't think anyone will mind if some of my friends come over and get to work.
