Just did mine this past weekend.

I don't know how much of a help I could be to ya, especially considering I have a day job

I followed Timzcat's instructions on here under the "clutch fix" thread and didn't have any problems - other than dropping one of the screws down on the plastic air deflector under the car (that sucked getting that out, btw!).

Took me and my brother a couple hours, mainly because I spent an extra 30 getting the damn screw out.

One tip I can offer - the banjo bolt up by the master cylinder is easiest to get to if you lean over the car from the front - lean your left elbow just under the windshield wipers, and screw it in with your left hand. I got it the first try like this. It is, however, a ***** to get a 17mm closed-end wrench in there to tighten and loosen that bolt. I found that removing the top of the hose from the master cylinder's plastic reservoir over to the little thingamajobby on the firewall where the banjo bolt is, makes it a helluva-lot easier to get a wrench in there.

Rest of the stuff is on the website already. Some good info on here
