That looks very sick! I'm surprised HKS has v-band cast manifolds. Did this kit come from Japan since the HKS U.S. facility has not closed it's doors?

20k in the transmission alone is a tough cost of entry.

do you have to drop the whole engine/front suspension assembly to do this type of install?

Yes, as you can see in the photos in the original post, the motor and front suspension MUST be removed. The installation on this kit is quite lengthy.
