I have a 91 mr2 n/a and need to pull the tranny. How hard is it, (the car is getting ready for a JDM swap). Should i just pull the tranny/motor? Which ever is easier and quicker because im sortof in a hurry to pull the tranny because its sold and the guy is comming tomm. Is there a write up or anything on how to drop it? How long does it take?

Thanks

it doesn't take that long. i helped my friend change out the engine and transaxle in his 89(?) mr2, and it didn't take that long, a few hours to disconnect and drop the engine and tranny together. and a little longer to put the new one back in. he had access to his dad's shop and lift though, so that really helped. if you have any mechanical skill you can probably drop the engine in a little while. if you find you need help, friends+beer=free labor.
