5th gear trouble
OK, so I got my 87 rx7 a few weeks ago, it had an n/a 88 engine dropped in with 33k miles on it and a new tranny put it because my friend blew 1st gear before he sold it to me.
Everything was running fine, but now all of a sudden my 5th gear is messed up, it wont go passed 60 mph floored. I usually put it into 5th at around 55, and I just cant get it to go past 60. So i decided to test it, I ran her to 110mph in 4th gear and put it into 5th and with my foot floored I stay at whatever speed I was at in 4th and the speed will SLOWLY climb, im talking incredibly slow, can anyone PLEASE help me =[

i dont think so, all the other gears its fine, just 5th. But if the clutch was slipping wouldnt the rpms go up when i stepped on the gas, when im on the gas in 5th is just slowly climbs, rpms dont jump at all.
