you need to:
1. remove the oil feed on the union bolt to the vvti sprocket. (some oil will come out so be prepared).
2. remove the nut cover on the vvti gear via 14mm hex socket
3. remove intake side valve cover, and hold the camshaft w/ a wrench
4. while you hold the wrench, remove the vvti gear via 10mm hex socket
5. DO NOT TOUCH THE 5 HEX BOLTS AROUND THE VVTI GEAR. IF YOU DO TOUCH IT, YOU'RE GOING TO NEED A NEW VVTI GEAR.
