What kind of tools do you have? Socket metric set?
Do you have a floor jack or ramps? Wheel chocks?
Do you have oil drain pan?
Do you have a torque wrench and an oil filter wrench?
And a flat hard surface to lift car on?

Lifting a car to get underneath is the most important and dangerous task. Ramps may need to be specialized to work on a performance car with low approach height.
