LOL. Jack stand under the motor 2 jack stands to hold the car up nice and high, unbolt the axles, unbolt the slave, unclip the wires, drop the exhaust (2 15mm and 4 13mm) Unbolt the bell housing and use either my motor cycle jack that I used to put the motor in, I put a piece of 3/4" wood on top to make a nice little shelf and drop it with that or just my big jack from sears. Oh yea and undo the 10mm that holds the linkage and pop the cables out and get them off to the side..
Oh forgot step one. As for all my projects. Start with a beer of the season. This season pumpkin ale.

clutch info
Thanks to all who replied and for the great bit of info on the clutch instal.
Yesterday, the same local car repairer told me that the instal for the clutch and r.m.s. was closer to 30 hours work.
I've now decided to look else-where

Jaay, in the directions you give you said the car is on two jack stands. Are you saying you block the front tires and raise the car only from the rear onto two stands?

Come on Jaay, dont mislead some people into thinking they could do it at home in 3 hours lol... You left out all the bracing and stress plate, rear bumper and spoiler removal, not to mention that the exhaust nuts are probably going to break or snap off studs. Also, you have to count the time it takes to jack the car up and the time. Trust me, at the shop it can range between 8-11 hours long depending on the rusty bolt situation... 3 hours, not possible for the average human, and im sure you have a aftermarket exhaust so its probably a breeze to remove. Sorry if i sound like im attacking, not my intention, i just have a hangover and dont want to take the time to clean up my post.
