And then get up and soak again before breakfast. Make sure you use a good 1/2" drive socket set preferably a 6 point instead of 12 point.
I had a pig of a job taking my TD04 off MY06 Hawk. But they do come you just have to be a little brave.
Hope it goes well :-)

There is a small alloy lug on the gearbox housing that can sometimes get in the way and might need filing off. Mine needed a little attention but some people put a TD05 into the Bug WRX without any hitches.......a bit hit and miss but not sure why.
Otherwise it's a physically straight swap ............

It should be dead easy if you already had an engine build done, the nuts should come off quite easily. Wd40 can work sometimes but when it has not worked , I have found there is less chance of you snapping a stud if you run the engine for 15 mins and then try taking the bolt off. The heat produced. Allows the stud to come off alot easier than trying to free it from cold.
