Also right now im trying to get the engine out and I cant get the damn CV shafts out. Damn things are rusted. Taking the headlights off ant to to hard. just take the bumper off. 4 bolts hold it in and then its easy as hell. But the fact that you have to do that is stupid.
I forgot about the fuel filter project. I did that about 2 years ago when i had my GS-T. I was cussing so much that my landlords kid next door said something to me something on the lines of settling down. I can't remember now which was the hardest the top or the bottom on the fuel filter. It was a bitch because you got wire, hoses, brackets, throttle body and all kinds of other shit preventing from any kind of decent 'throw' on the wrenches.

Oh yeah- the fogs on a 1g. I had an old '90 1gen that i parted out on the trader and a guy wanted the fogs. This was a few years back and i can't remember it all but bottom line was i ended up cutting the front bumper cover pretty much off with a cut off wheel to get at the fog mounts. The car was somewhat smashed but dammit when you're parting a car out, you don't make shit for your time so anything sometimes is better and faster than figuring out the right way to do it.
