WTB: 1JZ Chaser auto transmission (JZX81 type A341E)

Hi guys, the transmission on my 1JZ cressy is on the way out due to me slipping it into reverse accidentally at 80kph (amusing story  ), so I'm looking for a spare for when I have time to change it out. It still shifts fine, but slightly rough into reverse now, and slips a tiny bit between gears.
I'm after a replacement that is not slipping and in good condition, ready for a healthy diet of Type IV 
A normal MX83 cressida transmission housing for this would be useful too, as apparently it has the sensor on it that my ECU needs, to stop the O/D light flashing.
How much would one of these boxes cost to put in? Is it an engine-out job? Any other things I should get done to it while I am at it? Shift kit, stallie etc? The car is just a daily driver, needs to stay practical and *cough* economic.
Thanks in advance!

What is it doing that makes you think it is playing up?
What does a shift kit actually do (pardon my ignorance)
Does it just let you change gears manually in it if you want, or just let you do that more reliably/quickly?
Depending on what it wrong with it I may be interested

i dont really know
someone said it might be my torque converter, it just changes very slow, lost of power in car, dont know if its the gear box or not.
i putting in a 5 speed manual
the shift kit i was talking about i think it changes quicker and a few other upgrades which is only stage 1
i was going to do stage 2 $2600 which is used on 10 sec drag cars, stage 3 is fully manualised, mean you change when you want to, forget the price.
i'll try to chase up the guys name and number and send to you if you want

Will a soarer unit fit/work? I've been told there is a difference in the speed sensors or something. Or that it won't change gears. But need to know what will and won't work before I go and buy one. Need a box ASAP now, blown reverse entirely

What sort of box do those ones take? Is it the A340E? Not sure if it will work, I think they are designed for the 1GGTE engine

Looks like I need a chaser box. My tranny is an A341E not an A340E. Needs to have a slipyoke connection, and plugs rather than a loom. A V8 soarer/celsior/crown box might fit, just dunno about electrics (could always swap the casing for those).
Really prefer a JZX81 Chaser A341E box as I know it will fit and work.

Just checked with MV Automatics, looks like a V8 box won't fit (different # of splines etc). Found a Chaser box at a wrecker in Melb for $375 but need to compare the type of plugs it has with mine (I never knew there was more than 1 type!)

Can you change the outputs on the boxes? - chasers have a slip yoke, soarers dont.. can you swap these between boxes?

I think it was more an issue with the input spline or something.
I think you can swap them around though yeah.
In any case I just ordered a Chaser replacement box for $330 from a wrecker in melbourne this morning
