I recently had a post up about my transmission problem but didn't get much advice so once again can someone on here kindly help me, thankss. Ok so I was driving went I went to downshift my tyranny wouldn't take the gear. I can go threw 1st 2nd and reverse but it wont go into 3rd 4th or 5th. What's my problem? Do I need a new transmission? Please help its a 86 rx7 all stock. Thanks god bless

It sounds as though you have a bent or broken shift rod.
You may be able to get them back into place by removing the shifter and manually wiggling the shift selector around. However more than likely, the transmission will need to be removed so that the tail housing can come off to access the shift forks.

is the shifter loose a bit?
then it may be that a bushing has busted and is preventing you from shifting.
Pop the top of the shifter surround off( put screwdriver in edge and pry up,it snaps in.) then move the rubber boots up on the shifter and you will see 3 10mm bolts on the steel collar surrounding the shifter.
take those 3 bolts out and pull straight up and your shifter pops out of the transmission..just like that!
