i am not sure if i will be able to make it now because of work. :cry:

if by the off chance i do have one of the weekend days off though i will be there for sure.

i just don't want to ask for it off, coz i've asked for so many days off lately that i don't want to sound slack with the boss.

Fine by me :) I'm gonna skip on the cleaning for that weekend though, I'll give my car a shine up the weekend before AS instead

I'll bring along anything I've got, or that I can borrow.. maybe a jack or two, spanners, sockets, power tools, filter removers (i.e. screw drivers :P lol) and a bunch of other crap..
Hopefully I'll have all the parts I need by then.. :roll:

Just wanting to make sure that everyone knows what they need to get done at the DIY day & what parts they're going to need to get. If you need to know part numbers for service parts or whatever post up if you're unsure.

my car seriously needs a service, i pulled out the dipstick the other day and was shocked to see the colour of the oil. And i've gotta change the coolant as well

and new spark plugs would be good. :P

i'll ask for the day off work but i'll just have to keep my fingers crossed that the boss says yes.
