Depends on your mechanical experience, Im 17, I did it with my uncle, took a weekend of working on and off. We replaced the clutch disc/pressure plate/reman flywheel/pilot bearing/throwout bearing/slave cylinder and rebuilt the Clutch master cylinder. Its not an easy task, but just be sure you have the right tools and arent rushed to do it. Im lucky my uncle has all the things you need, pilot bearing puller, torque wrenches, taps(for those damn stripped holes) ring pliers, a nice shop and adequite time. The hardest part would be getting the damn transmission out and back in, we actually had 3 people including myself twisting and coaxing it into its spot. Well good luck, and dont go to a dealership for them to do it! I called and got an estimate for 600 dollars!!

if you have tools and jacks and some common sense( and a manual) it souldn't be that hard. i wouldn't go to a dealership IMO they charge to much. call up some performance shops and get price quotes if you want someone else to do it
