Yeah no problem this might sound a bit drastic but it was quick and a lot easier than removing front end etc,obviously I had to put car on axle stands but I moved them further back so they was off the front sub frame.I then unbolted the subframe completely off the passangers side and partially off the drivers side with a big bar and a tyre leaver pull the sub frame away from base of car(on passangers side) and it gives the gear box a bit more space for you to pull it out hope this is usefull to anyone
