If you are DIY and buy a donor car....

...it will be the price of a rebuilt tranny ($1200 by Erikkson with trade in), new clutch ($200), rebuilt clutch master cylinder (DIY for $50), new clutch slave ($40?), (and of course brake fluid as the clutch and the brakes operate off of the same reservoir).
The best way is to strip down the car you are keeping, only then remove parts from the donor. I would strongly suggest buying a donor car rather than trusting someone at a junkyard to send you all the right pieces. Take pictures with a digital camera every step of the way, and then immediately swap the parts into the keeper car using the digital pictures to remind you as to how things go. Finally, bring the car to your indy to do the fine clutch adjustments, etc...
Somewhere on this site are instructions on how to do the swap. I would read them 3 times before beginning. I would also purchase a Bentley's Manual if you don't already have one. That manual is more or less our bible ,and it will have pictures and instructions on removal and replacement of many of these items.
