Default 5Mt Gearbox Broken! Opinions Please Urgent.

Hey all,
Lastnight I was giving the wrx some curry and busted 2nd year. I don't know weather its worthwhile doing a 5mt JDM STI upgrade which needs a rear diff to suit or just stick a stocker back in.

My car is a MY99 Aus spec with GD STI TMIC, tinake mods, exhaust, apexi PFC and a tune, pushing 162awkw before TMIC upgrade. Im going to put a TD05 Big16g onto her when I have the money (will be longer wait now :/) to hit my goal of 200awkw.

So 6mt STI box are too expensive for me atm and this is my daily so it comes down to weather the 5mtSTI box is actually stronger then a STD box and worth the extra money?

OPINIONS PLEASEEE!Also any info relating to rear diff ratios I would need would be good. Dont want straight cut gears or dogbox!

Thanks,
Zack.
