you need a 17mm hex socket and a triple square. I bought both of these and was planning on doing mine soon. In fact, I was going to pick up Redline Gear Oil while I'm at Curry's getting Dyno'ed tomorrow. Maybe we can hook up and do it together. A few others might want to, also.

Remove the fill plug before removing the drain plug.

It would suck to drain the oil out only to find you can't remove the fill plug!

At that point, one will have to tilt the car 90 degrees :)

They probably wouldn't have even shipped my order by then. Can't beat their prices, though.

BTW, J/K.

it's hard to spend only $10 :)

Still waiting for 2 items including the $20 torque wrench which I just found out today is BO'd until 3/28. =(

I think I will wait til then. I'm sure it will be OK if you came but I must ask since I was invited by Omid. I'll let you know!

I just wish I hadn't left my jack and stands at my parents house, could have just done it here!

Where is the shop to which you are refering?

I'll let you know when I find out.

Want to see what the actual gains are. You can come if you want but my appt is at 4:30 in Sterling, VA.

Also, just to make sure, do you understand that you needed to make an appointment to do the dyno run? It takes about an hour and you can't just show up. But your welcome to come along (or follow) to check it out! Like I said earlier, I am also picking up Redline Gear Oil for my tranny and Omid's. Let me know if you want to go and I'll call Curry's to make sure they have enough gear oil in stock for all 3 of us!
