Hey guys, I’m going to try to change the starter on the car, I was just wondering if anyone knew the procedure? Will I be able to remove and replace through the wheel well?

Thanks in advance guys, any help would be greatly appreciated.

You dont have to do all that.  
Step 1. Unplug battery  
Step 2. jack up car, remove passenger side wheel(not required but gives u more room to move around)  
Step 3. Go underneath and remove plug from harness and wire from front of starter.  
Step 4. Remove the 2 bolts pictured in S14\_240sx post.  
Step 5. Install, then put everythignback the way it was before, really easy  
-Edit- forgot that it helps to have a low profile socket wrench when removeing the top bolt
