5th gear synchro

hey, i posted awhile back about possible tranny problem and ive come to the conclusion that it is the 5th gear synchro (plus when i took the car into mazda to have the seatbelt fixed i asked them to check, and they said it was deff the synchro) im gunna have a second oppinion by a friend of mine who works on trannys, but i need to know where i can find a 5th gear synchro, and i dont want the dogear gear box (although being able to clutchless upshift would be awsome)
please and thank you

PEACEa

I do believe that clutchless shifting is possibly the hardest shifting style to master. I wouldn't even consider it since one good screwup and you've ground your gears so bad you need a new tranny.

Hell I have people in my family who can drive older cars without the clutch at all. Just start the car in first when at a stop Hard on the starter, but you don't need the clutch.

13,14,15, and 18 spd trannies FTW.
