    Default Auto to manual Conversion shops?

    hello i have a auto vh sle 5litre wondering if there's a place in Victoria that will do the conversion putting in a supra 5spd and doing a good job?
    as i don't have the equipment to do and it would just be easier that way

    I thought the supra boxes went ok behind the eights, but the celica boxes weren't so good.

    best bet would be just taking it to a transmission shop, eg, weve got SA trans down her in adelaide, maybe you got something like that up there?
