Im in the same situation mate. Ive been told it could take up to 6-7hrs to do, but my mate reckons he did his himself in 4 hours. Don't know of an actual price though suppose it depends where you take it and labour rates
im going to phone scoobyworks in loughborough on tuesday,
they list the job as £479 but not sure if thats for a 5 or 6 speed.
they say the job takes 3-4 hours
Think im looking about that sort of price too. My mechanic charges £35 an hour labour plus VAT, so Im probably looking at £170 with me supplying clutch if its a four hour job. Happy with that.
I watched Scoobyteknix fit my old car (5 speed) on a ramp, and without going into too much detail he did the gearbox removal method and it took 3 hours with a brew break and ciggy in between.
At the same time a Classic STI turned up for the clutch install, but also a new water pump and cam belt. He did this on the floor (engine out obviously) in the same time as mine give or take 15mins
Excedy 6 speed - pink box(up to 400bhp) clutch kit about £300-£350 for clutch kit alone, Then £150-£200 for fitting, Dont bother with the silver box one as it will probably start slipping with 360/360 IMHO
