I'm at like 4k, we go 4500 2nd turbo 10psi i take a car 8.5k go to **** to 3rd, ******* grinds on me, i'm done. He comes back at a light and asked to go again from a stop ok. 1st 1 car, 2nd 3 cars, 3rd same **** i'm done again. . I give him the thumbs up. I start playing with my car, so hi rev 2nd under load it will not go into 3rd yaaaa for me.

Sorry about your trans!!! What about 5th? does it go into 3rd a low rpms???

Did you keep grinding 3rd??? I'm having a bitch of a time getting used to my short shifter and 3rd sometimes gives me a hard time...
Good luck!

Once i made the slitest felling of grinding i let off. 5th is messed up to i have to rev match it on the freeway so i don't grind. And yes low rpms 3rd works find. I really need to get it rebuilt or get a new used one or something.

I'll keep that in mind next time.
You can order 1 from http://www.fc3s.org/engines/used_j_spec_engines.html
I also have another lead for 1 for 995 + 55 shipping. I want to see how much its going to coast to rebuild and see whats the better deal.
