Nice work! Keep everything very organized especially the transmission bolts. There is a lot of wrenching and even more reassembly. An organized disassembly will payoff big time. If your like me and just ripped the thing apart you might be stuck buying transmission bolts at $15 bucks a piece!
Are your wheels white by the way?

WoW! Great work kashmir! I was going to suggest we do some of the work together but you are WAY TOO ORGANIZED! Not bad but I work like a "cave man" compared to laying out your tools - like a surgeon! Care to operate on an 02 S, doctor?

Looking really good. Did your flywheel pass the twist test or is it shot? I know its pricey but a good time to replace it now.
Going to be anxious to see how your bearing looks when you get it out. Take your time and triple check you have everything locked down, and for what its worth, loosen all three of your cam chain tensioners. It really does make a big deal.
Waiting to see your next installment!

Is it necessary to lock the crank at the rear of the engine if you've already pinned the crank at the front? Just wondering.

It is cheap insurance that nothing moves. I did it on mine and nothing moved.

Was your bearing filled with oil? If so, it was in the beginning of failure and you caught a problem.

Going to take the gasket off and check, the bearing has been leaking oil so I believe it was full.

Kashmir, it'd be a treat if you could stop by TopSpeed from 12-3 today. It'd be darned interesting since you just did your IMS, but if your schedule is booked, then the worm is hooked.
Sent you a PM.
