Most of us just use the OEM one as it came. My motorset came with an SR tranny. I installed the motorset and found out the tranny was a no go. So I took it out and swapped bellhousings with the KA one from the old motor.
KA trannys are relatively cheap and easy to find, so I don't really see a reason to go rebuilding it. I'm not sure how expensive it can be, but I suppose you could go that route and get it done.

FYI: I did an OEM rebuild as well for reliability, Replacing the tranny/bellhousing will only take a day if it were to crap out on you. I also daily this car.

So the KA tranny is compatible with the S14 SR? I never knew that. I was also told by another friend consider going 350Z. Yeah I got a quote in Houston for $680 on the repair of the stock SR bell housing.
