Default 6 speed into a UK 2000 Turbo MY98 ... is it possible?

i'm having gearbox issues and so am considdering a transplant of a 6 speed into my classic.

What gearbox will suit?
Is it a fairly straight forward swap?

Where can i get one ASAP ????

I thought about this some time ago and spoke with API, they said that I would also need a rear diff to suit.

You need the 6 speed box, full gear linkage and propshaft and it will fit straight on, u can even use your existing 5 speed clutch and flywheel.

As for the rear diff this only needs changing if ur fitting a Jap box on a UK car or vice verser.
If u buy a 6 speed out of a UK STI u won't need to change the rear diff

Any of the well know Tuners (API, Scoobyclinic etc) and Breakers (Grade A, Glenburgie etc) normally stock them.
