Update on the gearbox issues...
Phoning around and getting a few quotes I've found it uneconomical to rip the box out and replace 1/2 Syncros with the hope that the others with 140xxx kms will be fine.
I have sourced a low km tall ratio STI liberty 6 speed - also the same as the JDM Foz that has done 3xxx kms.
This along with a matching 3.54 rear diff will be installed by the Guru Doug and his team as it needs some minor modifications to fit correctly with the 02 running gear.
Works out a bit more expensive, but I'll be getting a gearbox and Diff with 3xxx kms opposed to just the 2 new Syncros.
Will post pics when it's done and see how it drives.
