Well, I'd like to get to a junk yard, but there is nothing really near me.
So I ordered a new one for $37 (including shipping) on ebay.

Possible only in a cold climate ( for which SM4 is optimised ), needs to
be modified for a warm ( let alone hot ) climate, or every component (
esp injectors / alternator ) below bonnet will be too hot, e.g. resistors'
heat ( 19.86 watt ) will flow toward injectors which when idle & hot
will evaporate petrol, then petrol's wax content will clog nozzles, then
[i] engine will be hard to start [ii] detergent added by user can't
dissolve all of this wax ( accumulate too fast ) in city use.
Thermostat opens @78ºC i.e. this is ideal tmprtre, but tmprtre gauge
has no calibration, to hide overheating in a warm/ hot climate.
2.2 litre has longer branch exhaust*manifold, 2 litre has cheapo short
branch *. Results [i] lower though adequate torque @ low rpm ( as
during buyers' test drives ), but very low ( <½ as much ) torque & mpg
@ high ( >3000 ) rpm : inadequacy increases with rpm. [ii] on highway
when >3000 rpm is needed, user cannot change gear from neutral to
drive w-o a jerk ; crank shaft etc. cannot spin fast enough from idle to >
3000 rpm [iii] cooling is worse. This is why expensive cars have long
branch *. http://circletrack.com/techarticles/73598
Many car makers ( incl Nissan in Sunny 130Y, Hyundai in Sonata 2.4,
Proton in Waja 1.8 ) save on *, because 99.9% buyers have no chance
to test drive on highways, or know / experienced a difference between
short & long branch *. Honda fits only short branch ( 4 into 1 pipe ),
cheap & heavy cast iron * for its engines <2.2 litre.
Toe-in prescribed for rear wheels is stupid ; rolling resistance is not
minimised ( & fuel consumption maximised ) unless toe-in is 0.
Disc brake calipers' mounting bolts must not be overtightened, or pads
when idle will bind discs : I had to add a spring washer to avoid over
tightening.
| 200k miles, going for 300k...
Gearbox lacks a ATF filter, torque convertor's lock up clutch won't lock
, before 100k miles unless a filter is fitted. Changing ATF can't remove
all dirt : my 2nd g-box was noisy in neutral despite ATF change, before
a filter was fitted & used for 3000 km.
