Thumbs up Need help installing some parts...

Hey how's it hanging guys?

I got some parts sent to me this week and would like to put them on before school starts (monday)... and i don't want to get buttraped by the labor...so is there anybody in/near OC, specifically the Irvine/Newport/Santa Ana area, who know their stuff and free this weekend and can help me put them in? I am living in an apartment and doesn't have any tool/space to do the jobs... I really appreciate it and will take u to lunch/dinner/drink.... possibly some money for gas (brokeass student here...)

The stuff that's gonna get installed are:
SSautochrome Headers for 3.0
Full set of Brakes and Pads (we can just do the rear, i'll take the front to a mech if needed...)
eBay intake w/ K&N filter (if it gets here in time...)

I'm willing to drive to someone's place/gargage to have them installed...

Anyone?

I'm just starting out to mod so i don't have that much confident in working with my car's brake system... I can probly install the intake, but the headers and brake sys is kinda out there 4 me...

and also about exhaust: someone told me Tanabe exhaust is good, others told me to get a Magnaflow and do custom piping... Can someone give me some info on this? What do i need if i wanna get the Mag? I know that i need the muffler from magnaflow, and custom piping from a shop, but what do i need in the middle/the end??? some help please

Do you have a large C Clamp. Cuz if you dont then telling you how to do it would be pointless... Or at least access to one?

Come out to Corona and we'll do it all for you. PM me if you are interested. And let me ask my friend if we can borrow his garage.

Quick question, are the headers already made to fit? Or do they have to be bent like the ones in the past did?

SSAutoChromes are supposed to not need bent, just have to loosen the cat

From the looks of your pics and the way you hesitated to askfor help for the front rotors I can only assume you have a 97 CL with the hub over rotor design. That wont be a problem either.
