That Japanese transmission has to be cheaper than a 915 transmission from a 911. I paid almost 800 for a couple of bearings in my 915 transmission. Plus a bit or remove and replace time needed.
What is insane expensive is a modern car's automatic transmission. One of my friend of a friend's car had a transmission quit, and fixing the transmission was going to be almost 3 grand, just the repair it, not replace it.
They just junked the car.
