As long as the demon bolt isnt seized up on the cat then those shouldn't be too bad. me and a buddy did my oil cooler in about 2 hours a few weekends ago. don't be afraid to hop in there and take her all apart

If that happened on a Sat I would totally be down. Problem for me is I have no garage or tools to do stuff. Back when I lived with my parents I had access to all the good stuff and did everything myself on my Acura except the ECU tune

I have a collection of all tools needed for anything we're trying. Tho only have single driveway. Making it tough to work on more than two at a time. ( tho my street is very safe as far as parking, might even be able to convince neighbor to let us borrow her driveway.

He was thinking bout coming to my house Saturday @noon.

I'm open, but if someone has better set up let me know....

I'm open at my house as well got a 3 car wide driveway plus a garage, but probably only have half the amount of tools that jackson does as my Z is the first car ive started to work on. On the downside i live all the way up north KC which i know might be far for you guys. But id def be down to join up on a DIY day anywhere, throwing on my intakes was fun and would love to help out others.

I need to still throw on my swifts this weekend as well.

Sounds like it might be a good time. Nothing better than shooting the sh!t while working on a car. I watched the bumper process and it is pretty easy. You just have a lot of screws and pins to pop out. Worse car for replacing headlights I've owned. The Volvo C30 was extremely easy on the other end of the spectrum.

That sounds good. you could install your springs. my intakes seems to have the same install as the SG 3 intakes. Looks like 3 cars are in the mix. So lets come up with a final time and place for who is down? I'm open and down for whatever. right now me and Jackson are aiming for 12:30ish at his place tomorrow. don't wanna leave anyone out that wants to join so lets us know what works for you guys. its gonna rain sat night and sunday fyi
