whats up everyone, im new to this forum and the main reason i decided to join was the fact that im gonna try and replace my clutch on my 91 non-turbo. im goin to school to work on cars and im pretty confident that i can do this myself, but i havent taken any transmission classes yet and im not exactly sure what im gettin myself into. so if anyone has done this before if they have any advice/ info i should know about first that would help me out a ton.

I've never torn out my mr-2 tranny, but I've replaced many in my rx-7 and one in my 912...both of which are absolutely nothing like an mr2's design.
from what I've heard around this forum, the clutch replacement is a pretty large task.. and given the design and layout of the engine and tranny... it's almost exactly like changing a front-wheel drive clutch.... if not the same process.. I've attached a link to give you a little more info than what my rambling can.

thanks for the links i already found those and have them printed out and ready for me to get to work. yea ive been told by one guy its easy cause once you get the tranny unbolted its light and easy to maneuver, but one of my friends taking summer autotech courses just got done takin a tranny off a 01 carolla, and said fwd cars take a ton of work...
