Hey RA, if you come by the shop (UnderPressure in Westminster)that I used to work at....me and the fab guy can help change the plugs. We'd have to go eat first to let your car cool down first. Weekends work the best for me, so PM if you wanna come down.

Yep. The TM plugs I picked up from Steve earlier today. I seriously have no clue how to install the plugs. I know how to change the intake, soldering ECU, changing brake pads/rotors but not the plugs.

It's not that hard RA, I changed the plugs on my supra and it was fairly easy (just gotta make sure the car is nice and COOL). Like I said, let me know if you need any help (I'm always down for a free meal).

I could bring 2 large papa john's pizza for the installation. I can't install them this weekend since I'm going to the Club Lexus meeting on Saturday! No, I'm not gonna drive my car. Ray is going to pick me up cuz I'm lazy.

Yeah, next weekend would be cool cuz of the carson meet this weekend. I hope by that time I can pick myself up those TM plugs (I sent an e-mail to Steve Monday morning about ordering them) but even if I dont get the plugs by that time I can get a first hand butt-o-meter feel for the TM plugs compared to stock ones. I'll talk to the fab guy and make sure he'll be around next weekend since he has all the tools.

Default Yep

I could install them if you want to wait a couple of weeks when you come by for the other thing. Pretty simple on the GS4. GS4Will will be over around that time.
