    I dunno, I think the VX is pretty easy to work on. I've done my timing belt, and while it's a slightly complex process, it can be done by a non-professional mechanic. Cars are complex machines and I really don't expect them to be simple to fix. That said, I have seen under the hood of my brother's 350Z and I have seen the 911's engine bay and I want nothing to do with either!!!

    ya, im gonna have to agree that this is a fairly easy motor to work on for a japanese car...my integra is at least twice as bad.... there are SO MANY damn wires and hoses in that motor that it could drive a man crazy. (its not as bad as CR's 300zx)

    on all three of those pics...

    While some buried components on the VX are definitely worthy of a head-scratch or two, things could be worse. I've heard the same joke from workers on a couple of different vehicle assembly lines that goes something like this.

    "At the end of the line, if we pour a bucket of water on top of the engine and any of it hits the floor, we know we've forgotten to install something."
