You bought a sports car, now go buy tools and gloves and get under this thing already, if you wanted something hard to work on go buy a porsche, drop the motor and talk about the grief of tight spaces and not owning a lift. or try working on a v8 in a s4. thats tight. I dont see the same amount of waaa waaa on the audi and 911 forums I hang out in

plug swaps on 911s are not fun either

on subarus
accessing the plugs is NOT hard, just a challenge
lifting the motor is NOT hard, its SO light

its scary if you have not done it, but if you can change your oil, and get the car on stands, you can change plugs, and then some, its a very easy engine to access and get to

the problem most will run into is not having the correct tools, hoists, jacks etc
yes there are easy ways an hard way to do things
you know lifting a motor is impossible if you dont have a motor lift like me. I live in a apartment and its impossible to store it without a garage. The only thing i was feeling bad when i bought this car was having to change the plugs one day because i know it will be a dam impossible task for me. When i owned my evo it took 2 mins to change the plugs.
