Unhappy '90 z32 automatic transmission

Last summer I traded my 95 Eclipse for a 300zx, and in my mind it is still the smartest deal I've ever made. However, the car had some tranny trouble, its automatic transmission seems to skip second gear. I've heard this is a common problem in early z32s, as they used a very soft metal to fabricate the gears, I have also heard that the swap to 5-speed is too cost prohibitive? Lastly i have heard that nissan used the z's tranny in some infinitis, true or false? I would appreciate any knowledge on where I might acquire a dirt cheap tranny to get my white z terrorizing the Massachusetts highways again, as a college student's bankroll doesn't support a $2500 rebuild.
