Sources for T-50s?

Ok, so I'm loving my ae86 but the tranny sucks at times. Second gear engages fine for upshifting but downshifting you have to be in third, then drop it in neutral and blip the throttle pretty high to engage second. If you try for fourth or fifth it just refuses to go in. Luckily I have not gotten into any predicaments where I needed a sudden second gear downshift but dont want to chance it, plus would enjoy having a fine shifting tranny. Anyone know of any vendors or suppliers I can get one from and does anyone make them rebuilt better than oe? The plans for the car are to keep it NA with a wicked 16v build, so not gonna be making massive torque, just rpms.

ok, looked em up, but it just indicates they rebuild all trannies. Not bad but if I was to spend that much on a rebuild rather they be closer or special with Toyotas.
