I'm betting it is total days in any car but I'd call to check. Thanks for the auto-x schedule. Seems you're always just a step ahead.

Well I figured you didn't post it and I knew I could so I might as well just do it.

He's not in the shop today. I'm doing a clutch today and East Bay MINI will pay us if it is defective. I'm hoping that we can get more work from East Bay as they get to know us. They don't like to have to tow vehicles from Fresno to Pleasanton if they don't have to.

. Yes that would be cool for you guy's, keep you busy .
All I can say is WOW I got the Megan's installed and this is my first ever coilover setup and I really like it especially with very little body roll in the corners. I have them set to M7 sport spring ride height. Front dampers on 10 and rear on 20 I am actually going to stiffen the rear down to 15. This next weekend I am going to play with the ride height and get the rear dampers stiffened. I ordered damper extenders for the rear. Now i just need to clear out the interior so i can get behind the interior panels to drill some holes for the extenders.

What are damper extenders and how do they work?
With the rear how it is now I have to remove the coilover partially to adjust the damper with the damper adjustment extenders you can do it from inside but you have to drill an inch hold into the body on the interior right above the hold that the coilover mounts to. here is a visual and pictures are from cor_blmy's BC Coilover Install
This is from under the car
This is on the interior
Here is a picture of what the extender looks like coming from the top of the coilover
here is a picture of the rear interior panels installed with extender through a grommet

Somebody must have hit a power pole and knocked out the entire block.

Remember when you drill those holes, make sure you don't hit the wiring harnesses that run on top of the rails.

That's impressive. Nice, neat and effective. With the Koni Sports and H-Sport springs I have it's completely remove the top the damper from the car and adjust.What you've got there is way cool.
