Part of the appeal of getting my ti was that I'd get a chance to learn to do these things. I've found for the most part it's not terribly complicated just time consuming the first time around.
When I first removed the rear end of a ti, it took me ~20 hours. When I did it about a month ago at Rendoll's it took ~7 hours. I spend time beforehand reading the Bentley manual and looking up writeups online (especially for pictures) and even while I'm doing the work I reference the manual or any writeups that I found.
I'm one of those people who when it's crunch time can sit and work for 12+ hours at a time. So, I can handle the long working hours just to get one or two parts off the car
