About $1300 if you're getting a full reco done at the same time. I can recommend you a place that does this, but PM me if you're interested cause I don't want it to be seen as advertising/plugging

Depending on how bad it is, (mine was fine until the box was up to temp and then it was as though it was 90% not there), you may find that some Pro-Ma MBL8 will fix your problem.

I put about 75mL in my box with new oil (Penrite transaxle 75) and after a few hundred km, i noticed it started to come back to life. 2000km later and you'd not know it was a problem on the street. However, on-track and it starts to misbehave again at higher operating temperatures. I've added some more, but I may have reached its limits of 'repair' in this case. I have an R32 GTR

Its about $35-40 for a 200mL bottle. Give it a go nothing to lose. Just dont put it in an LSD or an auto box because it'll destroy it.

If you have trouble tracking it down, shoot me a PM and i can put you in touch with the guy i get it from here in Perth.

It works as a bit of a bandaid solution that one...good in the short term, particularly if you don't have the cash to repair it now...but the problem can/will get worse down the track and may start to grind away at teeth. Not as bad as masking up and ignoring a bearing noise/rumble, but it's the same idea.

Might work out cheaper to get a replacement Nissan 5 Speed as I believe you can't get R32 GTR synchros anymore and the R33 GTR synchros are so different they need to be changed as a whole set (this is all from vague memory).
