to those of you who did your own 3sgte swaps Options

[brianforster]

what were your car experiences when taking on the project..

lets say 1 is you didnt even change your own oil, 5 is being able to change your timing belt and 10 is doctor tweak (<3)

what would you rate yourself? how long did it take? what was the most frustrating part? (besides wiring, because my harness is already complete)

PS. doc if you read this, i still wann have the swap done by you, because of your crudentials, i trust you, and i know everything would be done right.. but my friends have some good points and are really trying to make me do this myself!

thanks all

also: i thought you needed new couplers, those look like the ebay ad ones? if so whered you get your new/better couplers

no the silicone couplers i got from the kit are great...its the clamps i had problem with...they SUCKED. the silicone couplers were nice and thick...very good quality for the clamps all i did was buy IDEAL (this is the name brand) clamps from home depot. these guys (IDEAL) are the same people who make some of the clamps u see in auto stores and theyre very good clamps. i'll eventually buy some real good t-bolt clamps but these IDEAL ones are just as good imo
