Hello, basically yes, take out door and door liner (this is the frame which is flush with the plaster) if your preference is stud work then you need to buy the thickness of timber required i.e. allowing for plaster board thickness etc... usually four by two , i would use 12.5 mm plasterboard, then build your frame, sole plate , head plate, then studs, one on each side then a central stud, couple of noggins in centre, insulation for sound proof, then tack on your plasterboard, i'd recommend screwing on , you can buy drywall screws at any builders merchants. you're now ready to finish, if you can't plaster i would suggest having a go at taping and jointing, then skirtings and your done! Hope this helps!
