Default AP/UP/DP/Springs Install Help?

Well while I'm at school (and my friends are as well) I do not have the resources to do this stuff on my own. AND I don't have the knowledge to do it by myself (the UP, I can figure out the AP + DP and the springs I'm good with) but like I said, I don't have ANY of the tools I will need NOR a place to do it. SO I was wondering if there is any installfests coming up before winter, or anyone who has the place, knowledge and tools!?!?!?!?

Don't really have the money to bring it to a shop, but I can pay with food and drink! LOL

If I have to bring it in to a shop, can anyone recommend a good shop that's a little closer to the NY/NJ border than prescision? (No offense to Prescision, just don't have time to drive the way down there.)

Thanks a lot,
Andy

BTW, This is for an 05 Legacy GT. And I haven't ordered the parts, waiting til I have the install set up before ordering.

You can do it in my driveway. I have ramps, cordless impact gun and some tools. Have done all of the above before, so I could be of some help. I'm 12586, about 45 mins from Po-town. Bring some gatorade and you buy the pizza and we'll knock it out in an afternoon.

ps-driveway is big enough for 4 cars, so we could get a couple of things going at once. Only caveat is that it probably has to happen in the next couple of weeks, Columbus day being the last possible time.

I always thought install meets are allowed as long as money is not involved.

If its a problem, then just delete this thread, I didnt mean to break any rules or anything, just asking for help. I was joking about the meet idea, because its not even my driveway. I cant invite people to someone else's house!

You can get spring compressors from autozone for the day. They actually work pretty well.

its easier in an LGT than a WRX... tons more working room. the only difference i saw was that the front 02 sensor is now a different size.. a 7/8 wrench is too large, 3/4 is too small, 19, 20, 21mm all dont work either.. channel-locks or adjustable pliers are your friend

actually with the proper tools, the 02 sensor doesnt even have to come out, the lower heat shield is now able to be removed with the O2 sensor in place.
