I am going to start work on the S this weekend, mouting i/c and what not.

I am going to pull the front bumper, and perhaps the fenders as well.

Any secrets/tips/hints to getting them off.

I know on my 99 Si, the bumper was held on by 2 screws and 6 pushpins that pulled off in 30 secs.

 

for the bumper
there are 6 screws up top... 2 at the fenders (one on each side), then 8 on the bottom connecting the skid plate piece

 

Cool, thanks.

How bout the fenders?

 

sounds like you want instructions on how to remove panels, not "tips, secrets or hints". just sayin...

do you have a shop manual for the car? If not, you really should get one.

 

buy the helms manual. then goto the store and photocopy it and mail it to me

 

You already picked up the turbo setup? Wasting no time huh... Congrats!

 

lol...any little bit of info helps. Of course I can fumble around and find them, I was just curious if anyone would be nice enough to help a fellow s2k'r out and say, "look under xyz to find said screws/etc."


Smoke:
I didn't buy a kit, but already picked up the injectors/pump/manifold/wastegate/intercooler.

I am going tonight after work to look @ a used 30r to see if it is fact what I need.

Not planning to do the full install until sometime late February, but I can get started on hanging the i/c and moving the battery, stuff like that.

I do things in steps, to minimize the amount of work I have to do.

Work smart, not hard.

I have fender covers when working, but learned my lesson when I worked on the Si, it ended up with a few small dents/ripples..so I figure I will just pull the fenders off completely to keep from dinging them up.

 

Freakin bumper was a P.I.T.A to get off...
