the one over at Audizine with all the missing pics (rats) as I'm contemplating doing the swap myself.

I've done suspension swaps in the past but want to know some of the 'tricks' to the install, like dropping the rear subframe rather than having to compress the rear springs.

Also, I don't have the Bentley manual and therefore all the torque settings etc... can somebody help me out or should I just pull the trigger on the manual?
