Dr.TuB Posted September 2, 2010 Author Share Posted September 2, 2010 so.... whats the fix on these? rebuild the transmission? new synchromesh? how much would something like this cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 i had exactly the same problem, only got worse with time. if you leave it too long it will be unrepairable and on top of that probably take your clutch and fly with it (speaking from experience). You may be able to get your box repaired but if the damage is too far gone it will be a new box the same as i had to have. no idea on the cost of refurb of your box im afraid a box will cost you up to ~2.5k depending on age/condition contact falcon performace http://www.falconperformance.co.uk/inde ... &Itemid=30 if you are anywhere near them as they have dealt with a fair number of 350z boxes now and the service and quality is first class. I travelled up from coventry and they swapped mine out and i am 110% happy, well worth it. in the mean time really take your time with those gears, the worn synchros mean the shafts wont match speeds properly so you have to be patient and wait for them to spin down themselves so they don't crunch.

Ekona Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Don't go from 6th to 5th? Go straight to 4th, do not pass go, do not collect £200 etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
