Default AU3XR8 manual conversion

Hi all.

The auto in my XR8 is stuffed and needs a rebuild......Planetary gears are noisy as hell......

I've always preferred manuals......I can't afford a 6spd conversion....I was possibly thinking of the Tremec BA 5spd instead of the regular AU T5.....Is it a better box??? Does it bolt up the same????

I got a quote for an AU conversion kit with a reco AU T5.....Nearly 5k??? Parts only.

Alternatively, I may just reco the auto and beef it up.....Any one recommend someone near Liverpool, NSW????

Thanks.....
Doug....
