make sure you pop the clutch arm out matey and mark the shafts before you take them out because you can get them 180 degrees out other than that its not that bad of a job and check flywheel

Read carefully and think hard, this is a dangerous job without the correct equpment or enough manpower. Nobody wants to get hurt in order to save a few quid.......

Cheers for that, I did see that thread it has a good guide & also got the impreza mag 9 with the guide so will follow them closely, I do have a few helpers when I get to the box
, I did notice the draper transmission jack has been alot of help for some people maybe worth 90 quid

managed to get quite a few bits done today. heres a tip of my own for anyone struggling to get the pivot pin out- use a bolt off the cambelt cover & put a few washers on it slightly bigger than the pivot pin hole & when you tighten the nut it pulls the pivot out also upon removing the speedo cable it came apart it looks like its been taped together could this cause problems? ,cheers
