urgent question
 
I recently bought a 88rx7 and when i shift into second in high rpm like 4-5 rpms it seems like when i shift into the second gear it seems like it grinds but its not making a really loud noise and i shift smoothly into that gear but is a weird sensation when i shift it into it but i do shift until it all the way down so should i just put it in that gear and not pull it down all the way let me know i dont want to replace tranny anytime soon.

It sounds like the second gear sychronizer is starting to go - a common problem with FC trannsmissions. Some fresh fluid may alleviate the problem. The popular fluid on these boards is Redline MT90. It's helped a lot of people's problems.

yeah, try redline.. if that doesn’t work, you’re screwed buddy:D

hate to be so blunt, but it's happend to me twice so far. i'm in the procces of swaping in a TII tranny. should work WAY better... i'm sick of dealing with these whimpy n/a trannies...

do you have a TII?
