watch the clutch lines when removing and install the tranny. don't want to snag or bend those suckers.

Do a search, someone made a pretty decent write up w/ pics and commentary about a 5th gen clutch job not too long ago.

Your lucky its a base , im currently helping a friend with a 00 Sh , the atts unit has to come off and some of the connectors are hard to get to if you have large hands. Yours should be pretty easy. Good luck.

Have someone help you with the tranny. A little wiggle here, a tweak there, and the tranny has to do a little dance; then it'll go in or out.
