drop the passenger side of the subby not all of it, then slide the box across then lift it out the top.

for a newbie it'l be about 7-8 hours to get it out.

Just for contrast i'd drop the subframe and take it out the bottom, gives you a load of room. No better way its what you want to do really.
Its nothing special compared to other cars theres just plenty of stuff in the way.

each to their own tbh, Ive always preferred top route, means you dont have to f**k bout with the steering pinch bolt and other shite.

Thats very true actually, you'd have to have it tracked after if you drop the subframe too. Although i'd bet you'd need to anyway if your pissing about moving the subframe.

ive just taken the box out of my 172 cup this morning started at 9 and it was out at 12.30 i dropped the passenger side subby and brought it through the bottom. its quite an easy job to be honest.
