Just did mine. Kit cost $176 + $50 for engine mount. Pulled motor and box out, took about two and a half hours over four days.

Experience is something you don't get, until just after you need it.

Just get a mate to help you lift the whole engine out, probably easier then doing it with the engine in. Yes you will need a throwout bearing, check the cable condition as well while you're there.

Got it all back together. Everything is running ok.

Had a look under the car today and there appears to be a little bit of oil near the thin plate that bolts to the gearbox (near the flywheel).
Any ideas?

Cheers

Yer think it is.
Funny thing is it wasn't leaking previously. Coincedence?
Not that it's much oil, just that I know its there.
