i used fobz' diy when i did mine.... follow the links from here http://www.perth-wrx.com/vb/diy-mechanical-modifications/8420-diy-exhaust-replacement-my99.html

use a 22mm ring spanner on the O2 sensor, if its a bit sticky, tap the spanner with a mallet or something to loosen, i'd avoid soaking it in CRC or anything as that could damage the sensor.

good luck mate

Can always double up spanners by using another of similar length to make the 22mm one longer or pipe over the spanner
