where to work

[mecevans]

Im probably in one of the worst situations a supra owner could be in. I have a mountain of parts to turbo swap my car but no workspace to actually do any good with. The parts have been there for nearly 10 months. My father wont. Let me work on it at home or his shop which there is plenty of workspace for and I don't know anyone else with space. I even asked my instructor at my community college and all they work on are school vehicles.

Its a tease to see the parts every day when I know its enough supporting nods for 350 hp easy. What can I do?

Rent out a bay at a track for a month?

 

[mecevans]

Never thought of that ill look into it. Thanks!

Edit: tracks in my area don't do this.

Rent a storage space big enough to hold your car that has power.

Agreed, I'd rent a storage unit. I rent one, but only use it for storage even though I can easily get power in it. I just put my M3 away for the winter.

With a little ingenuity you could have a pretty sweet setup if you find a decent sized one for the right amount of money.

Make some local friends with space.

If I was in your shoes I would kiss ass and do whatever to take advantage of being able to work on it.

i pull the whole i work on all your cars for free. and i have pulled the you built a car when you was younger and now i am which only worked for a little bit.

Many storage units have a policy against it being used as a "work space", so watch out getting suckered into a contract only to find out they'll give you the boot everytime you show up to work on the car.

You can try renting a garage from a private owner, but be clear what you intend to do; lots of owners won't like the floor stained with oil.
