Maxima Transmission

It looks like I may need a new transmission. Where is a good place to get one? The car is a 1995 maxima gxe 5 speed. How much would something like that cost? Does anyone know any good websites?

isnt rebuilding going to cost more, and isnt it worth more to just get a used tranny ?

I paid $850 shipped for my 00 5spd with 35K on it; also came with a 100 day guarantee. I highly suggest checking out car-parts.com for a salvage yard trans rather than rebuilding.

Rebuilding usually does cost more. If you can find a low-mileage tranny for a decent price then do it.
