    Its really easy, I did mine in about 3 hours with just a socket set, a few wrenches, razor blade for scraping the old gaskets off...

    The gaskets will cost you though.... I think about 45 for the UIM gasket, and depending on which option you choose - 20 to 75 for the LIM gasket...

    What "option" are you referring to on the LIM gaskets? There is only one option that I'm aware of- the aluminum ones. Don't install the same plastic junk that came in the car or you will be doing this all over again. And since he has a GTP he won't need the same UIM gasket as the N/A cars, so the price there may be lower.

    And the "service traction" light may just be a bad wheel speed sensor. Try cleaning the harness at each wheel where they connect and see if it clears.

    You will also need a torque wrench for the bolts, and some sealer for the LIM bolts to keep the coolant from wicking up the threads.
