Depends on the year of your G20.
I've got a P11, which would equate to probably 1999 onwards for a G20. If so, here's how to do it:
The starter is located in the worst possible place - to the rh rear of the engine block, about mid-way down.
To remove the bolts, you'll need to remove all the air intake ducts and plasticwork to gain access. You should then be able to find two bolts sticking out the flywheel casing (both are within 4" of each other). There a bitch to get to, so expect blood and tears...
Once the bolts are undone, you'll need to climb right underneath the car and get your hands up the back of the block.
First, remove the supporting strut which runs from the inlet manifold down to the deck. Two bolts - one at either end. Again, almost impossible to get to. You'll need to remove this stut to actually have enough room to get the starter out.
Secondly, unbolt the terminals from the back of the starter/solenoid.
Finally, pull the start out and spend the next 10 minutes trying to man-handle it out from under the car.
Voila! Easy job. When I did it, it took about 2.5hours to remove and about 3 hours to replace!
