yeah my gearbox had an unfortunate turn of events this week.

6.5k of cogs and labour, (only 18 months old and well maintained) possibly completely gone.

Seems the synchro ring got pulled into the teeth somehow?!?! and then shredded thru the whole box.

its still drivable but makes a horrendous noise, so at the moment it is sitting idle. drained the tranny oil, which was a nice shiny silver, and removed portions of metal which cna only be from the synchro ring. it doesnt seem like a bearing or teeth.

atm box hasnt been opened so hoping its an easy and relatively cheap fix. if the cogs are damaged, well... nuff said, ill be getting rid of the whining straight cuts in favour of a sti 6 speed.
