Probably go the recommendations section and put 'Someone in Sydney to fit a manual box?' or something.

Sencond hand gearbox $650 Machine the flt wheel $55 Clutch kit around $450 Labour $850 Think your getting slightly butt-raped there hahaha Machining and clutch price are reasonable......but labour....  Ask them when the Jet engine is being fitted for that price  Give Penrith Brake & Clutch a ring, they did mine a few months back, and are pretty good price-wise

Of course you can remove the gearbox without the engine!!!
I would say about $400 in labour would be on the money.
A std clutch kit costs approx $225
And a 2nd hand box should be under $500.

The guys at penrith brake and clutch are f**k nuckles! Give western clutch service a ring they are cheaper and do a better job! Free plug for them because I'm sitting in the carpark waiting while they machine a flywheel for me

I worked out some prices
To get it all done by suzifour $2055
Buy the box off the member and get it fitted $ 1255 (saving $800)
Or look at getting my one fixed if its only something like a bearing
