Well... I was wrong! The drivers side was easier as you can see a lot more once you've got the wheel liner out and the airbox+alternator out of the way. But after all that I managed to get both bolts out with multigrips after a good bit of marination in CRC, as you can see she was leaking well and truely and each part of the exhaust I've separated is very black.
The passengers side is a *beast* I'm now up to the following out:
- Battery + battery tray
- Unbolted fuse box and fuse box holder (cant get it free just yet)
- Front drive shaft
- Mid pipes
- Oxygen sensors connectors x4 (damn that front passenger side one is hard)
All that and I am still dealing with some bolts totally by feel, glad I can get this done at my own pace, while I think I could get some of this stuff out without the mass removal I do want to see if I can get some SRT8 headers to fit, but my hope is shrinking daily.
As I've removed so much now I'm wondering what I should replace while its out, the CV boot on the driveshaft is intact but it does have some cracking, got wiring looms crumbling everywhere (conduit seems to have a shorter lifespan than the car).
