Default Missing Gears

Ok. All of you that have manuals do it. The question is: How bad is it for your tranny to hear that aweful grind shifting from 6,000 rpms? I probably do it once a day [:@]

Let's just say it doesn't do the synchro's any good.[:@] If you want a definate fix for that issue, get yourself a CHE K-Member brace with torque limiters. $165, half an hours work, and problem solved.

No, not at all! I put mine in a few months ago and LOVE them. I let a couple of others with sticks drive mine and they couldn't order them fast enough!

Yes! Please link! What kind of drivability issues does it help with? Do you still grind gears but not hurt the syncros? Details!

I still cannot shift third as fast as I want to. BUT, I have not missed it in months. I guess I have just gotten used to the problem.

I would like to be able to slam third home like I do in other cars though.

The 1-2 and 3-4 is no problem for me.

When you put those on, does your car not tilt when you rev it? I would miss that
