I got a local quote for around $1000 for an N/A. That doesn't mean it'd be that much, but there's a general idea. What kinda lube are you running in the tranny? Redline and other high grade synthetics seem to help synchro's sucking ***.

ur best bet would be to get a jdm transmission and install it your self, any shop that actaully knows what they are doing is gonna charge an arm and a leg to rebuild 1.

u should try the redline gear oil first tho it might make it last a lil longer.

I spent $900 to get my s5 n/a trans. rebuilt after parts and labor, putting it in and taking it out.

P.S. don't get any parts from Drivetrain Specialists of Las Vegas, they sent me the wrong kit twice both times with different parts. Both kits together gave me an almost full kit (never did get the right 3rd & 4th gear synchro's)
