I would suggest you have someone else do it.

Pick you up some ARP headstuds for a D16Y8 and a new OEM gasket or Cometic HP one. Get a helms manual and have at it. It's really not that hard. Remove timing belt, downpipe and move turbo out of the way (mine I just dropped down a bit), remove the intake, then take the head off by loosing the bolts in sequence specified in the manual. Get the head resurfaced and checked over just to be safe. Next put the new ARP studs in, put the new hg on and put everything else back in sequence. Done.
