So a mate came around today for me to weld up a suspension bracket on his Landcruiser, and while he was sorting out the suspension i was just pottering about in the garage. After cleaning up I turned to the car and decided to start getting it ready for the engine to be pulled, thinking it was going to be next weekend.
Nek minnit, engine ready to come out:

But wait, no engine crane available. Never fear, high lift jack is here:

Voila, one engine and subframe out under the bumper reinforcement:

Old B6 engine out, ready for being torn down with my 5yo:

Nice empty engine bay with the NB8B subframe temporarily in place so that the car could be dropped down to level again:

Thats a few weeks ahead of schedule, so now its time to tidy up a few bits in the bay and start thinking about getting the BP back together to go in.
