You're going to need a heated garage, spring compressor, and make sure you have all the tools. Specifically some mechanism to tighten down the front struts.
We did mine in about 8 hours but this was also the first time I had worked on a car. Depending on when you're doing it I'll be glad to help out.
What set did you pick up anyways?
