It's really no harder than, let's say, changing the oil pan gasket Dan.

Hahaha. The only things I have replaced on my own in this car - some with much needed instructions by phone from flash or from my mechanic -have been :

Replaced starter

Installed short shift kit

Replaced distributor cap

Replaced SC oil reservoir banjo fittings and hoses

Replaced spark plugs

Replaced exhaust tip

Installed strut tower brace

Replaced MAF

Replaced battery

Replaced transmission sych gears

Replaces pinion bearing


Ok, fine..I may have "exaggerated" the extent of the DIY on those last two..


But the above is just about the extent of my mechanical aptitude :-)

Ok, one time I found a loose vacuum hose, and I installed the SS door sills.

So we're way better than Waylander, who apparently has never had to perform that highly skilled feat of Porsche mechanicry.
