Go to search and type in clutch, if you have the search look in the last 3 months at my threads, all the info you need is one there.
If you need any up to the minute info mail me....

anybody know where this guide is as I can't seem to find it? when I type searcg I get 50 hits and none of them have the info I need.

Can't belive how hard it is to get this info from a scooby group!! I've spend hours on the internet doing this thinking it would save me some time!!! but keep coming up blank!!

cheers

John

You did get an answer in the other thingy you posted the same message.
Its simple... remove gearbox, remove clutch, fit new clutch, refit gearbox.
A std clutch kit can vary from £220 upwards. Subaru OE clutch kit is about £300

If it was really that urgent, and thought he was cpapble of doing it himself, then just do it...and stop crying about it here. If not get someone else to do it.
