I don't think any rental spots are around here. 4 stands would be your best bet to keep the car level. I'm near you if you want to see how I go about the lifting process safely. I did a whole clutch job and turbo install like this, works fine.

You the white BRZ/FRS?

I was under the impression that most headers were a pita to install on jack stands for these cars. Is this not true? At the very least, is the FT86SF unit installable from jack stands?

Thanks! I am still waiting to hear how difficult it would be to install this header on jack stands to make my decision on weather to make the drive up to yourdreamgarage or not.

Suppose I should take things right from the horse's mouth and PM FT86SF. I'll let ya know what I find out.
