Ok here is the list of who will/might be there. Looks like most will just be doing a retension or inspection so we will have plenty of time for others to do a full belt job. Anyone else coming out?

Can you guys let me know whether you need to replace belts or just tension/inspect and also when you plan to arrive so we can try to organize the shuffle of cars in the garage?
thanks

Thanks alot!, I ordered the parts today so I should get them next week, I will show up around 10 am but I'm free all day so any time is good for me. Also does anyone attending have any use for some stock S2 sway bars or front springs? I'll donate them to whoever needs them in appreciation for your help.
Thanks again
Alex

Well, it depends on when they were last done. Most people just change them at the same time as the belts. It's best to just get the rollers also so when you have it all apart and realize you need to replace the rollers, you already have them right there. You can alway opt to not change them and save the parts for next time.
It's one of those things that costs you a bit more up front but ends up saving time and hassle in the long run.

Then you can do mine also

bump for those that may have missed this thread.
And a norcal FYI, IRL is testing at Sears Point Tues (from 12:30) and Wed (from 9) and admission to the track is free. I might head up for an afternoon. Anyone interested in going up?
