Grinding going into third gear only may indicate a worn syncronizer ring. There are no adjustments on the shift cables, so I doubt highly that changing the cables will help you, since you are talking about 3rd gear only. Please note: This issue may be still under warranty, if your vehicle has less than 60,000 miles and is not 5 years old. Replacement of 6-speed internal parts is best left to a pro.

This is a code that is indicating you have a problem with the "bank 1, O2 sensor 1" heater circuit. Bank one is the side of the engine that has cylinder #1, and sensor #1 is the O2 sensor on that side that is before the catalytic converter. This code sets when the computer senses that it either takes too much or too little current to drive the heater inside the O2 sensor. Typically, most shops would simply put a new O2 sensor in this location as it is ten years old and there is a good chance that the O2 sensor has burnt out However, there is a possibility that the driver circuitry has a problem as well.

I would replace the sensor, I believe it is the one on the passenger side between the engine and the cat. After that, you will have to drive it a bit for the code to cancel, or you could have it reset with a scan tool.

When looking for a "faster" transmission you need to check the actual individual gear ratios of each gearbox and match anticipated rpm to available peak torque of the engine. This gets a bit complicated but likely if you speak with anyone who drag races a similar vehicle they can hook you up with charts & formulas. As far as top speed goes, that's all determined by your engine and differential/tire combination as all units are 1:1 in fourth gear (fifth gear is overdrive and may give you slightly more top end) For a street car, there are far easier ways of wringing out a bit more performance.
