Re: Garage Day Anyone?
Well bummer. Sorry I missed it. I was actually at Baron's this morning! I have that quart of oil I owe you, Dave. I think I'm probably due for a brake fluid replacement at 64,000 miles.

Re: Auto-up windows

Re: Auto-up windows
I just might attempt it. Someday. I've looked at the other forums and the tutorials are a little confusing to me. The terminology always sounds like you already have a basic knowledge and the posts always reference another post which references another forum. Well...you know the drill. Still, it wou...

Auto-up windows
Does anyone have or know how to use NCS Expert for programming car options such as enabling auto-up windows?
I've searched and researched other forums but am still unsure of how to use the software.

That looks amazing! I wish I didn't have to work. It looks like a blast. I'd be the one they waved the black flag to though.

Re: Shop Day Rules
And you owe me a quart of MINI oil too, don't forget! :D See you at the next meet up? Haha! Nope, I didn't forget. Unless it's the weekend, I'll have a hard time getting to a gathering due to work. Since I pass down I-35 on my way to work in the evening, maybe I could drop it off at your house? You...

Re: Shop Day Rules
I'm sure I was guilty of at least one of the infractions. I apologize. Thanks for the reminder and lists. Sometimes, I'm a little slow. I appreciate you opening up your garage and offering your advice and assistance! I'm loving the new pulley!

Re: Our Next Garage Day
Waylon called and he's going to overnight the screws. I feel bad. I wished I'd have noticed sooner and saved him on some shipping. He said the machine shop did that on several of his orders. He also said I got the last 16% he had.

Re: Our Next Garage Day
Yes, there should be 4 about 1 1/4" long black allen head bolts that hold the two pulley halves together, make sure they're not just threaded into the pulley....it might be kinda hard to see them down in the holes. They take a 5/32" allen key IIRC. Yay! Max is bringing the KK's! :cheers: ...

Re: Our Next Garage Day
I was looking over the online installation instructions and the kit I got, and it appears Way did not send the four bolts that go with the pulley. :roll: I put in a call and sent them an email message. I may not be able to install the pulley this weekend. :evil: It'd be nice if they would overnight ...

Re: Our Next Garage Day
I have my pulley kit. This Saturday at Dave's works for me (agreed, very kind gesture). I am only available Saturdays unless it's in the afternoon Sundays, but don't let me hold up anything. I can make the next one if it doesn't work this time. :wink: BTW: This 16% pulley seems very small. :shock: I...

Well, I ordered my pulley package a few days ago. May be here tomorrow. Did you all discuss a second option at Sonics?

Sorry I couldn't stay around at Sonic and discuss when this could happen. My weekends should be free for the next several weeks. Looking forward to meeting and getting to know more of the members.

Re: Our Next Garage Day
Wow. So I've been looking at Pulley options. 15%, 16%, 17%. Packages with colder heat range plugs, tensioner stops and belts. :? Can someone with experience tell me what are necessary or good additions to a 16% pulley? Have any particular brands proven themselves better? I certainly don't mind inves...

I'm thinking about putting on a supercharger pulley. I've researched but would like to get the opinions of this forum. First, who recommends getting one? How would I know if I already have a performance pulley? What size is recommended? I do not mind getting my hands dirty but unfortunately I'm not ...
