Search the threads here. Also buy a Chiltons or Haynes or some other manual that gives a break down of your car. It is not very hard, as long as you have the right equipment and tools. Good luck

It's pretty straight forward, you will just need to use the Intake Mani off of your old S13 so that all of the Vac. lines still connect. If you need any help or have any questions drop me a line, I'm right next door in Compton.
