You can look at any DIY spring install for a honda and it is basically the same. Except the fact that the driver's side read nuts on the top hat are about the hardest thing in the world to get to around the gas neck. :\

you dont have to remove the neck, some people with big hands loosen it up to gain more access room but removing it not require.

hell, the second time i put on my coilover, i dont even loosen anything, i just go around it, yes i got big **** hands

I did it w/o removing the 4 bolts for the neck the fist time I ever did an S2000. NEVER AGAIN!!! It's such a PITA to get to that bolt and I have all kinds of extensions, swivels, and swivel sockets. Trust me and do it right the first time, remove the 4 bolts and move the neck. I didn't mean completely take it off the tank, just take it off from the outside of the car.
