Default Syncronizers

Ive been through 3 or 4, I cant remember, 2nd and 3rd gears. anyone else have a problem with losing the 2nd gear or 3rd gear syncronizers? I rarely powershift, only a few times at the track, and not every run...so idk if I just got a lemon tranny, or what, but its going back into the shop for the 4th time. I just had to wait for my centerforce dual friction to come in

never had a problem.

Maybe you are shifting wayyy to hard, or are trying to downshift when you shouldnt

I really dont shift hard, the 2nd gear is my hardest shift. My friends think I shift easily, even when powershifting...thats what I dont understand!!! Could it just be a bad tranny?
I know the last dealership didnt put it together right, so this one told me...

My third gear had a funny thunking feeling to it when I first got my car. As I learned to drive the car and shift more smoothly it went away.
