Lots of parts needed to change to the 6spd. I'm still going through some teething problems with clutches that keep letting go. Get it back tonight and hopefully that's the end of it.

Basically in Aus, you'll be looking at around $10-$12k for the 6sp conversion, or maybe $8k for a 5sp Getrag conversion (cause you can reuse some parts like the starter motor). But guaranteed the Getrag boxes are bigger, beefier, stronger, smoother, lighter throw, etc etc.

All parts are OEM and bolt on. No mods necessary.
