Default transmission exploded??

driving home the other day my trans gave out on me, hoping it was something minor i took it in.
1st place i took it in too doesnt do trans but said it'd probably cost me up to 1500$
2nd place i took it to was an actual trans shop, they said the best they could do was 1150 who qoute said my trans exploded
3rd is my cuzin who does car **** and he said 900$

considering that my parents will be paying really for anything that goes wrong with it because 99% of my funds are taking care of college expenses for next year.

question is to you is it worth it to get it fixed, mind you i dont know jack about transmissions. Though they are already having it fixed with a used one with some 51,000 miles on it.
its a 95 civic ex 1.6l with about 123,000miles on the engine..

plan on getting a 2nd job over the summer...should i A get a new engine and or rebuilt the one i have now? or 2 look into a lease.. which my parents already thought over..

question to anyone who knows..are there any B series engines that work with my P.O.S auto?

^ I saw that last night. If they had dropped all 12k on the motor it would be pretty cool. I could prolly make a civic go in the 12s with a 12k.
