It wouldn't cost that much. To replace them all would be about $1000 thats including labor. The 3/4 synchro will cost about $250 and labor should be about $300-350.

I rebuilt my tranny myself. It's not hard when you have a Helms book. If you know someone or have a friend at that works at Honda or Acura, they can just order the syncro for just that gear.
