Does anybody know a good shop in the Pittsburgh area that will do a tranny swap? I really don't have the time/skill/resources to do it myself.

Along this topic, does the tranny swap make a difference? It's so damn boring to drive with the auto. I'm hoping that if I swap to a 5spd, it'll keep me from having to buy an STi.

PS I have NO idea how to even start getting all the required parts...I found trannies on eBay for reasonable prices. I would like to get upgraded clutch and flywheel too. Then I guess I need the OEM cables/wiring? Help:confused:

Have you read the 5spd threads on here? They have alot of helpful information that should fill in some of the holes for you. Try to get a lightly used flywheel if you can, they are expensive new.
