Well you have 2 choices.

Or you can rebuild it yourself. It really isn't all that hard. I've done a bunch of them and have found it rather simple. If you go to a shop, whichever you choose, BM or TRE or Shepracing.com, you can't go wrong.

Whatever route you choose, I definitely suggest upgrading the front diff.

when you screw stuff up when you install a k&n, rebuilding a transmission is DEFINATELY hard

Please tell me you're not talking about yourself.

Yeah, you might want to stay away from transmission work for a while

my thoughts exactly

DSM trannys are really not that complicated to put together, getting them to shift good and stay together is a different ball game...

Hahahaa!! I wouldn't touch the tranny if I was you then. Then again, I was a real sped with these cars a year ago. You only learn by doing. If there is anyone knowledgeable by you, see if they can help you. If not, then BM or TRE are excellent.

Great sites John !! This is a good future reference once I start getting extra money to modify my car.
