Skilled Mechanic Help?

Anyone have any decent experience on working with the insides of a RX8?! I need help replacing a SSV ACTUATOR. The dealerships are overpricing me by to much

Rotary engines, making mechanics out of ordinary men for over 30 years. Just bit the bullet and do it. Its not too hard.

Doesn't look too difficult, couple-three hours.
I'm putting together an install party in Vancouver on Sunday. This is the kind of project could take center stage if you want to come up.
