The oil change isn't anything magical, so $100 or less if you go to Pep Boys and get their synthetic specials.
'Replace transmission' is not maintenance. That's no different than saying "replace engine." If this is the case, then this is a "disposable car." I would stay away from GT-R. Porsches, as long as you don't hammer them, won't fall apart like this. Ditto for Corvettes.

Replacing the transmission isn't normal, but it is something to consider with early GTRs. Even if you don't have to replace it, the annual tranny fluid swap costs a lot. It needs 10 quarts of fluid at $85 a quart.
Going from what I've seen on gtrlife, if you diy you can get the brake costs down to only $3-4k.
