Being a US spec' 9000, any turbo transaxle from '98 down to the '94 will work - they all have the tallest final gearing (83:23). 'Tall' means a smaller fraction or ratio of the gears.
83 divided by 23 is aproximately 3.61 or 3.61:1. A shorter ratio means a larger fraction, like 4.05:1. That being said, the better transaxles were the later ones - a '98 or '97 would be ideal. Here in MA, a relatively low mileage '97 go for about $650-800 at the salvage yards. I'm presently using a salvaged '97 transaxle and have had no problems in 50k miles.
It's about a 6-8 hour job and should include a new clutch kit, master, slave, t.o. bearing and hydraulic line.
