The standard gearbox doesn't handle much in the way of abuse or power. I'm amazed that I never had to replace mine. (due to abuse not power
ops: )

It depends on your ultimate goal.
If you want GT-X power then do the swap and sell off your old engine :|
If you want GT-R power then a re-build would be a good start, forged low comp pistons, custom exhaust manifold, turbo, exhaust, intercooler and plumbing, large capacity fuel pump, programmable ECU, labour, dyno time, etc.......
Have a look around the forum for facts figures and opinions, that way you can geet an idea of costs. Personaly when I was playing with my Cosmo I had heaps of fun, made plenty of mistakes, spent too much money and after $15,000 I stopped counting (LA, LA, LA, LA, LA, not listening, not listening, not listening). Beyond that I would get very defensive when I was asked about costs.
