Sasha, excellent present!!! Proper hints dropped in proper places usually produce salutary results.

Simple question, the answer to which I've not seen elsewhere. Would you be kind enought to provide torque specs (lbs-ft or newton-meters, I don't care) for the front and rear strut tower bolts. My first job will be front and rear braces since TOMs now has a bar for both (or will be when Steve gets back from vacation).

Thanks in advance, and Merry Christmas!!!

I predict that you will shortly be deluged with requests and as a result thereof, be the first poster above 5000!!!

That is awsome! I would love to get a copy as well. Do you know where your grand parent got it?

Please help me find where the ecu for the S-AFC is located.

BTW, thanks for all your help at the past, have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Do us, and probably yourself, a favor and tell us how your Grandparents got it...

Online somewhere? The dealer?

What is the exact title on the front?

TIA

Each volume is like 2 inch thick with very detail of everything.
Shipping is around $8-10

The thing I'm really interested in are cross-sections of the car itself. Are there any such diagrams? If so, could you please scan then if it wouldn't be much trouble and if it wouldn't infringe on copyright laws? Thanks, Merry Christmas!

wow that's some pretty detailed info! thanks!

Is step 2's trim the wood trim? If I only want to take out the wood piece, I can stop at 2?

Or what do I have to do to get the wood only out?

thanks!
