as far as i can tell while i was looking through my car following the writup, the most difficult parts seem to be getting a drill up behind the dash to make the openings for the clutch master cylinder, and bolting up the pedal and cylinder from the inside, engine bay side is right up top and seems relatively easy to get to... taking out the tcu first before pulling old, and installing new shift cables may be a good idea too. anyone have good methods on getting the car high enough to drop out the tranny w/o a lift? i can't even get a jack under my car without driving it onto a phonebook or something first. anyone ever lift out the tranny from the top?

in case anyones interested in seeing, heres my car when it was in its prime: http://byakko.onlineshowoff.com
