Default 97 Civic Clutch Help

My clutch is going out in my 97 civic hatch. Im 16 and havent changed one before, but im willing to do it. Ive installed my full coilovers, exhaust and done my brakes. I have most of the tools and can get whatever I need. Im thinking of an excedy oem replacement clutch and pp with a lightweight flywheel. My question to you all is how hard is it? Do you think it would be possible for me to do? Ive done my research, but everyone gives a mixed answer.

You need to drop the transmission. After that, the job is straightforward.

@RonJ@HT how hard is that to do? from an inexperienced person's point of view.

You can definitely do it. Not a difficult job, just a lot of steps. A ball joint separator is probably the only tool you might not have already. A second pair of hands is good for tranny install and removal.
