If you wait a couple of months, I'd come around and give you a hand/drink your beer/make disparaging remarks/go home when it gets difficult.





HAHAHA the beer part :-)

Hahaha that's what often happens when I hang out with Richard, Dan and Ken.

Disparaging remarks and sitting round eating whilst others do work is always funny

layton.
easiest way to get the motor out;
take the box with it,Undo allthe wiring off the ECU and poke it back through the fire wall and place it ontop of the engine .
Before you do the wiring undo every thing that you can see that is bolted to the engine from the engine bay.
you should be able to run your hand right around the engine and not feel or see anything going from the engine bay to the engine.
clamp off ya fuel lines thay may not leak when ya take them off BUT around 2 hrs later if you have fuel in ya take as sure as bears in the woods there will be fuel on the floor.take the radiator right out as that will be the first thing to get in the road.
NOW:
don't be scared of the engine loom ever plug is differnt except for the coil and injectors (mark these ones if you need to)
ones every thing is undone place the harness from the ECU on top of the engine and pull the sucker out.(motor and gearbox as one item).
It is easier to seperate them when thay are on the ground.
Like Dan said above if the motor isn't using oil or blowing it leave the rings alone.
Bearings at this stage of its life may not be a bad idea BUT there is a little bit more to it than just throwing in some bearings.
As you know these motors a a very well balanced item and i do suggest you read up on how the japs assembled these motors every journal (were the bearings site)have been sized up so a spacific size bearing is fitted. read up a little bit mate before you start pulling the head and cranks apart.
"O" yer you can do the valve stem seals with the head still on and in the car
and you can do the rear main and front main with out pulling the motor out.
to get the single turbo engineered it is going to take around $5000.
I have been looking into it cause there are a lot of guys in the same boat as you mate (defected for single turbos)
good luck mate do some reading first before getting inside the motor.
cheers

I used this tutorial to remove the engine written by Cameron James:
