Who's interested in another PNW Tech Day?

If everything goes well and you have help, you can do it in a day. Mine came right off the car but I ended up having some issues with other items (wheel bearings) that took longer and pushed it into day 2. If it's stubborn and stuck to the chassis, then yes, 2 day event.

So unless you plan on working fast, having help and nothing going wrong, subframe work would probably not be recommended :p

Suspension swaps, brakes, etc are all easy projects to do in a day. The transmission swap we did last time was pushing it, but luckily Derek had some great helpers to get his done!

anyone have some know how on doing the timing belt and water pump? i wouldn't mind learning with someone direction on how to do it...if not i'd be game to come down and meet some fellow E30 owners and help bang out some projects...i'm pretty new to the scene

[LuckyHenriksen]

I am down to come by for the day and hang out. I wouldn't suggest trying to get a subframe dropped and reinstalled in one day, but I would love to help do one anyways. I would like to gain more experience/knowledge in this area

[Mlarsen]

I'm down to help anybody. I'll bring some tools, beers, and shenanigans.

Theres plenty of stuff for me to do on my car, if the subframe becomes more of a bitch than id like to deal with, ill just move on to one of the other things i need to do. a sunday would be best for me, any sunday. i have to work every other saturday :/

[Gregolas]

I'm in either way. End of April is better for me.

[kid325e]

I will come

[cramer]

Subframes can be a big job, specially if they are stuck to the body!

At this point, I will be hosting it in Olympia, so I have all the basic tools, air tools, jacks, press etc needed for the jobs listed so far, but I only have one set. So if you can bring any items you deem necessary to work, do it :)

Late April date work for everyone so far? (say 28th? or maybe May 5?)

And helpers are always useful so come on out with or without a project :)

[Wishno87]

One of the first meets I ever went to :D

I'm in.

[IronJoe]

In. I won't be bringing a project but I'd love to help/watch/learn/BS.

I've been putting off swapping an e36 rack into my late, airbag 325i. From what I've read, it's fairly simple (I have the parts), I just need a dremel to clearance the firewall, and some way to make/alter the steering shaft boot bracket that bolts on to the firewall. If someone can lend me a Dremel, I could do it that day.

I'd love to go I don't have a project or much car experience but I'd love to help, learn, and watch.

[Gregolas]

^^This. I have RTAB's, Diff mount, and SS brake lines/clutch line to do as well.

I also have a coil over install in mind, could be a productive session that covers quite a bit. Either way I am in to come help/participate!

Im down, perfect chance to redo all my rear subframe bushings, rear diff bushing, and trailing arm bushings. plan is to drop the whole subframe and get cracking!

great idea!
