VE Omega 3.6
I have a 4 speed 2007 VE Omega Commodore with a broken transmission.

I don't know what transmission is inside it, it's a 4 speed. Was wondering if it's possible to replace the 4 speed with a 5/6 speed? The car is a run around, and I don't mind spending the cash on a second hand 6 speed transmission. Will it fit onto the car and work? If so, what transmission will I need?

TLDR; Can I upgrade from 4 speed to 6 speed transmission, and if so what would I need?

Thanks

Wasting your money.
Change over 4 speed box is what you need to do, and nothing wrong with them.
Don't abuse it and it will last 100s of thousand of kilometers. Mechanical sympathy is the name of the game.
What actually do you think you will achieve by going 6 speed?.....Serous question.

You can't do it. If you want a six speed go and buy a car with a six speed in it

You would need to transplant an entirely different wiring loom, PCM, matching bcm, that would then need matching ECU and the rabbit hole gets deeper...
