take front wheels off. unscrew axle nut on both sides. unscrew ball joint bolt underneath hub on both sides. (you will have to hit the arm with a hammer. thier is a little bump above the stud. hit that very hard on both sides. never hit the stud itself. This can be a pain in the ass.) Hitting it will make the joint come loose so you can lift the hub and take it out of the joint. Take both axles out. drain all fluids(tranny,oil,coolent). I usually disconnect all the plugs on the motor instead of just leaving it on the motor. Id just unplug everything that is connected to the motor. Underneath the car take off the shifft linkage and the stabilizer. above that you will see the rear motor mount. unbolt the 2 big bolts that are vertical. 17mm or 19mm i forget. Take intake off. Take Header off. Take all hoses connected to the motor off. Take injector clips off also. remove radiator fan. disconnect AC bracket. and Power steering bracket if you have it. Disconnect O2 sensor on exhaust. disconnect clutch cable. unbolt rear mount. unbolt 3 side mounts. take motor out.

I'm still stuck on the halfshaft though... So far I took out a bolt that went through a balljoint, and another castle nut that was on the bottom of something else at the end of the bar that has the ball joint and goes to the tire... I'm fucking lost now... I can read the damn manual but the problem is I don't know what the hell the manual is referring to about half of that shit. Like a d(something) fork and some other things. Anyone wanna take bets on whether or not I'll get this thing out successfully? How bout back in!?!? LoL Oh well.... definitely a learning expierence. Thanks for the help everyone and hopefully it'll keep comming! If anyone knows of a site that already has a detailed guide that would be a help!

Yeah, see my uncle is a mechanical engineer and would have no problem doing this. He's there as my support if I get stuck and can't move foward so he'll just drop by and help me past whatever I'm stuck on. The other help is comming from friends around here that know a bit about it but I can't find anyone that has done it enough to know exactly what to do.
