Transmision?????
 
I need to rebuild my tranny and I am having some trobles.
I dont know how to remove the tranny. Everything is out of the way and the bolts that hold the tranny on are off but the thing wont come off. I was told it was a pull type pressure plate and I have never worked on one of these so any help would great. By the way its a 93' and its a 5 sp.

I just went through this. I was never able to get the clutch cover to separate...I had to unbolt it.

Here is an excerpt from

http://www.scuderiaciriani.com/rx7/clutch_install.html

"Separate the clutch cover from the throw-out bearing [release collar].
With one hand, pull the release fork toward the back of the car (through the upper-left service hole). It should stay there.
The collar should be seated all the way inside the pressure plate. Pry them apart with your big-ass screwdriver.
The collar will snap right out. See the illustration below, as the only trick is getting the screwdriver in EXACTLY the right place.
If this doesn't work, you have to unbolt the pressure plate from the flywheel through the lower service hole. This is a pain in the ass. You have to do it criss-cross, which means slowly rotating the pressure plate back and forth, etc. "
