    lotsa labor.. major bitch.. Id say only do it if you have impact tools.. Its too easy to break bolts on the subframe without the impact..

    just picture disassembling the entire suspension system of your car.. including dropping the subframe.

    I was lucky enough to have the full kit for the rear already installed on my 2g. It might be a bch to install, but I can honestly tell you it's definetly worth it. DSM's usually handle like a dirty as$hole, but with just the rear done, I have loads of turn-in (for a gst). Instead of washing out and coming wide, the nose actually points in. The only downside is I don't have LSD yet, so on hard lefts, the inner wheel looses traction. It handles much better then most gsx's I've driven though, thats for sure.

    Just take it to napa, or anywhere else with a press. Color code everything and tell'em to press dem bitches out. Otherwise dedicate a weekend of your life to you suspension.
