The first thing you will need is tools and a car.

Secondly you will want diagrams a wide variety on your specific car. It makes everything much easier in the longer run I promise.

Third you need Torque Specifications for anything and everything. It's just to insure that you don't wind up with problems down the road.

Lastly you'll want a Pen and a notebook. This is so you can keep track of when you did something and when you are due for another oil change.

If you can think of anything I missed post it below.
