No you can leave the gearbox where it is and pull the motor out instead

The wealth of information i am constantly learning from SAU is invaluable. I will take my engine out tomorrow and check my clutch, Thank you.

Those marks look way more like defects in the pressure plate.

It has been specifically rubbing at those points.

Has someone machined that pressure plate previously?

I've got a Jim Berry pressure plate that is totally munted from heat and ready to explode, it's got cracks EVERY WHERE through it, but doesn't have the rub marks like you have.

You seriously look to have had some high spots in your pressure plate.

And who ever machined it appears to have machine not just the pressure plate, but the whole damn thing... WTF?

Okay so I just got a engine hoist for real cheap from the for sale section.

Should be here on Thursday.

Any walkthroughs on how to get the engine out to get to the gearbox?

Best to start by removing the rear cradle and diff assembly. Let us know when you have done this and we can give you the next step :)

      Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...

      WGNC34 Rear springs

      It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
