They don't manufacture transmissions, they make performance upgrade kits that replace many of the internal components.

I believe it was in the $4000 - $5000 range for a performance transmission upgrade.

Trying to put a 6-speed tranny in the car would cost a ridiculous amount of money.

Well is not just a swap nor easy bolt on, but yes it duable. It will cost you a good amount of money.

you are going to need:

New 6-speed tranny......cost $4k-$5k
New ECU-PCM....cost over $1k
New center console, shifter, etc.....cost over $500.
New gauges.....cost over $400. not just the plate
If you have a type S.....removing VSA.....TLP.....removing TCS.
Labor $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

probably new axles/CV joint, since they might not be the same lenght.

that is all I could think of at the moment.
