Can anyone tell me how hard or easy it is to change a sti gearbox.

 

Doy:

If you are not a seasoned spanner man then the job can be very hard.
There are several specialists who can do the job depending on where you are.

As an insurance you might want to change the clutch too.

If you are in the West Midlands, try David at www.apiengines.com
