lol if u need a new box convert to manual. its much cheaper than rebuilding ur auto box which will eventually die again. manual is more fun and more powerfull and it will also put up the resale value of ur car

lol, a manual box is "much cheaper"...hmm, no.
but anyway, i know a guy in sydney that does rebuilt performance boxes on an exchange basis at a killer price dmitch, if you want his details gimme a pm.
i wont post them up here cos i dont want any fool emailing him asking heaps of questions and stuff when they're not even in the market for a box.

sounds like ur bias towards manuals cos thats what u got.
500 horses....a manual is not gonna do as well as a tricked up and stalled auto....and i'm saying that with manual and auto experience.
unfortunately, if we want power/performance we've gotta spend the cash, whether its manual or auto.
