I didnt have a lift or air tools when I did the G. I just put in all the other bolts to seat the pan, then put a block of wood under the pan to distribute the force and jacked it up some. Didnt have the right extensions at home to actually loosen the mount, which would have made it that much easier. I did this after messing with trying to fit a 10mm end wrench in the tiny area that was there, I even cut a wrench in half to try making it work.

weiboy718: Unless the coupe subframe is different than the sedanX(wouldnt suprise me if it was the same as the Z) You'll probably have to lift the motor some. Theres barely enough room to squeeze a finger in between the subframe and pan.

If stillen would release the sedan charger kits so I could install it I would take a pic of how close it is.
