Bro ... u know how much cost for changing synchros for gear 1 & 2 n oso labour charge ? I dunno whether to change new synchros or just bought 2nd gbox w/o lsd and take back good parts inside ... Some friend say not worth it to change new synchros coz too expensive ..

My plan to change clutch set, release bearing n LSD kits oso ... but damn expensive ler aftermarket one ... Btw ... I notice just 2 of us always in this thread .. other 4 door members active at other website or what?:hmmmm:

i think if u got the budget, its best to open up ur gearbox and change the synchro's cuz if u get h/c gb, u dunno how's the condition like also, probably in 6 months time, 3rd gear again synchro problem.. haha very very common in vtec. i hardly redline my car also synchro sudah problem. but urs is 1 and 2? i think 1 and 2 is using the same synchro, so u only need 1 set.

aftermarket maaa.. semua pun mahal...

yeala, only u and me... the rest dunno fly where
