So just ordered my Stillen SC

mikey1600 · 06-16-2014, 02:53 AM

While I'm getting everything organised guys, is there any specialist tools I'll need to do the install? basically anything to make the job a lot easier/faster, don't mind spending some $ on tools. I've got all the basic socket sets/jacks/jack stands/torque wrenches etc.

Any clip tools to remove the fuel pump?
just a generic spark plug removal tool or is there a specific tool for the Z?

what's a good A/F ratio gauge, anything to make use of the main screen to display this?

As far as tools maybe some ac disconnects if you have to pop any of those lines, after that it is all pretty basic, maybe a dremel or body saw for widening the hole in the core support for the intake tube. dremel makes a nice diamond wheel that makes plastic it's bitch, its for ceramics. the only other thing i can think of is a compressor and air tools to make everything faster.

sweet, cheers man! I've got a dremel, don't have ac disconnects, will wait and see if we have to take this off before buying the stuff for it.

you are going to need a thin walled deep 14mm spark plug socket if the install involves spark plug swap.

I run the innovate afr gauge and like it
