I am considering buying an AU2 in auto and was wondering if anyone has experience in converting them to manual or knows anyone in Adelaide that would do it.

DONT LISTEN TO THEM!!
Once youve put the manual in you will love it. Olympic motor wreckers did mine. There was allot of grief, but that wasnt thier fualt it was compatibility issues between series and some hybrid wiring on my car, but they sorted it all out for me and were fantastic about it, didnt charge me any extra but anywhere else deffiniteley would have as they almost spent as much paying the auto electrician as I paid them!!.... I paid $3k, for a VCT motor + manual gearbox + full install, so I dare say just the gearbox side of things would be under $1500 if they have one in stock?? Thier in londsdale, look for them in the yellow pages, or I think Ive got a card somewhere if you cant find it.
