Request for help in CT

Well, CT, Mass, RI and NY within reason...

Just rec'vd a new set of motor mounts. I have neither the space, tools, nor experience to do this myself.

Looking for someone who can lend their experience and help me get these installed.

I understand everyones time is valuable. More than willing to compen$ate for the help.

Well, I've never done them myself, but tell me when you and your more-experienced helper are doing it and I will try to come down to lend a hand.

Thanks CJ & Juve for the offer and the help..

The problem, aside from having proper tools (which is really just a trip to sears hardware) is having the space to work. Townhouse parking lot and the management is pretty strict on the "no auto repairs on their property" issue. So thats the biggest issue at the moment.

Im happy to help, I also have alot of tools. Only problem is at the moment my 924S is taking up my half of the garage and my dad will kill me if I leave the 350Z outside. So if you find a place then I will come with tools and help. Plus now that I dont have a girlfriend to take up all my time I dont have much to do so Im there.

I'd watch or turn a wrench but I don't have the space/equipment/knowledge for motor mounts

Well, if I come up with someplace solid I'd just as soon wait till after new years as the holiday season gets kinda hectic. If i don't find a spot by after new years I'll just send her up to my mechanic and miss the experience

The same offer is extended to any of you guys. If you can benefit from an extra set of hands let me know, am more that willing.
