Re: same problem!

I also have a third gear problem in my 85 FB. Is this also normal in first gens? Third is driving me nuts and I will have to change trannies since I plan to compete in a very twisty road course and for the life of my rexy that third is getting annoying and downshifts are impossible without heel-toe.
This problem goes for all the Rx7 trannys..

I pretty much solved my 3rd-gear problem by shifting gentler (you need a calm frame of mind, so spend lots of time relaxing between rounds!) and a $2 torque brace (1/8" cable between engine and left strut tower with about 1/2 to 1 inche of pre-load).
