[QUOTE="shiroitenshi, post: 1335195, member: 27518"] I did mine in Wang Teng Guan, Jalan Pengkalan Chepa, Kota Bharu, Kelantan.. Still waiting for the car to be towed back from spraying the engine bay, the engine is still on the floor at the moment. I suggest you send for cleaning and spraying as well, since it's the only chance you'll get to get a clean engine bay for a long while. Stuff done already: CTR 5 lug arms and discs (these costs a tidy sum if you manage to locate one with all CTR upper arms intact, but for your purpose, the EG6/9 discs should be enough, and usually comes with the halfcut. I did mine in anticipation of more power down the road), install sports suspension, changed all gaskets, repainting the valve cover, changed all rubber seals, new battery, changed front suspension subframe (the old one rusted on places), chassis realignment, new bushes, new plugs. You can see the parts I'm putting on my car in my sig. Depending on the quality of the fluids, expect about 300-400 for engine oil, brake fluid, coolant additives, power steering fluid, etc. Trust me.. I initially thought 8K was enough.. big mistake! You should remember that some of these halfcuts been sitting around for YEARS! You'll lose a lot of money in workmanship costs if a rubber seal/gasket fails in parts where the engine needs to be taken out [/QUOTE]
