Default Slave cylinder leaking

I found that my slave cylinder is leaking and did some research and found out that there was a recall. After doing a little more research, I saw that it isn't worth looking into, even if I I qualify because they only replace it with the oem part and will eventually give out again.
I need my car up and running soon.
Is it possible that I can swap my transmission with an '03 G35 transmission?

Cheapest solution would be getting the slav3 changed where you need to swap nothing but the fluid


Makes sense to me unlike the question

anyway, tired and don't want to wait for answer . if HR motor, i would do this

http://www.zspeedperformance.com/ZSP...ZSPSTG1-QD.htm

it take the internal slave out of the pic and essentially gives you an external like the older ones.

if you have 03-06 then just replace the external slave

I'm on a tight on money at the moment and saw how much money people were spending for the labor for the swap, so thought I'd ask if it was possible just to swap the tranny for my other one. But found a friend who's going to hook it up for the slave swap, thanks guys.

If you can swing it, replace the clutch while in there. Not sure how many miles you have on it, but i know i hate doing things twice
