I did have one Honda gearbox go out, on an '82 Accord. Nearing 300,000 miles. I put in a used one from a junk yard and kept driving.

Rob's certainly right about the experience not included. Well, I do know how to use the output flange removal tool. Which is what you need when a two dollar spring breaks in your gear box.

Is that what you have? Hopefully a spare.
