    Any updates to when this might be? I wanna order my fluids and crush gaskets to change my tranny fluid and coolant bare minimum. Also change my spark plugs if there is time for me to do it. This is truly a godsend. I can work on my own car, I just dont have the tools or a place to do it (my apartments dont allow car repairs) anywho, let me know and I'll bring the beer. Thanks

    I know @Pedal Logic is down for the count for another couple of weeks due to a broken foot and a torn Ligament in the other:sick:.

    But within another couple of weeks we should have a firm timetable ;).

    We’ll get this sorted eventually for the benefit of all(y).

    I actually have a coolant change coming up that might be a good time to swap the engine water pump and maybe the inverter pump too. If anyone has a grid charger that'd make me super extra jazzed but that seems like it'd take too long.

    I'd be happy to help anyone else with their projects and bring tools. Oh and maybe snacks? :)

    I'll check back for updates^^

    We’ve done those jobs before on a Gen2 :).

    We do have grid charging equipment in the group, but that takes awhile to do:cool:.

    Are you looking to install a harness:whistle:?

    Keep an eye here and we’ll have a date soon(y).

    Awesome! Yeah, I could definitely pick up a harness. I've been weighing the utility of trying to see what kind of results grid charging might have vs. swapping in new cells, I just don't know anyone with one and getting one and new cells seems like seriously overdoing it. I'm just happy to do a little ICE maintenance for now though.

    I'll keep an eye out ;)

    You’ll have 3 members at the meet up that have done grid charging, so you can ask any questions you got;).

    See you soon(y).

    God.. another month. I saw 7 new comments and thought that it's finally arranged. Welp, hopefully my transmission won't fail me anytime soon. Also I wonder if you guys are gonna have some sort of feast after we're done with the stuff.. I might be able to make some food before going there..

    Sorry my gratis work doesn’t come with a shop or locale that is always available:cool:.

    I do the best with what I got ;).

    Life sometimes gets in the way of availability (y).

    Host the meet. We just need a place for the gathering - that is the only issue right now.

    If you can provide the space, people will come and help each other with the work.

    Not sure on the torn ligament, but the broken foot was a training mishap, IIRC:whistle:.

    The ligament may have been a result of compensation for the broken foot :cool:.

    Maybe @Pedal Logic will she’d some light (y).

    What caused that? High speed accident? That must've been so painful..
