If you can't tell, I have had some bad luck with this myself. It started the, screw it, I will do it myself mode. This acutally turned into a full time job for me while I went back to school. I was a dealer technician for several years.
I once took my car in to a Z only modified shop for an issue. I had an intercooler installed at the same time. I then had the car retuned. While the tuning was going on the tranny blew. It suxed. I paid for the parts, they rebuilt it for me. Needless to say, several months later I was passing another car in 5th gear. I started to hear a knocking sound. I downshifted to 4th and it went away. Come to find out, I tore 3 teeth of the 5th gear counter gear. LOL At that time a search for a T-5 manual 280zx turbo tranny insued. I still have the car today running 11 psi of boost (1975 Datsun 280zt). Needs paint and a bunch of new parts installed that I have hoarded up. Working on that.
