There are two ways to do it:

You can remove the manifolds (and turbochargers and all related shit), or you can lower the engine a bit and get your hand in there with a collection of flexible 3/8 ratchet joints, a shaved spark plug socket (if its too long it wont work), and lots of patience. The issue is that the upper head faces the frame rails.

By the way, I love the SC. Very nice car. I dropped a 930 engine into one, but it keeps breaking transmissions (600+ HP). :)

I've done the change =)


Reminds me of a friend who took the hole saw to the inner guards on his STi to make getting to the plugs easier.


Oh yeah, I own a Subaru. I know the pain of changing those spark plugs, too.
