oh and this stuff stinks, almost made me sick to my stomach after a little while.

How bad was the grind?? was it just noticable, or was it a HARSH grind?

*AzCivic* · 03-17-2004, 03:08 AM

it was pretty noticable, not REAL bad, but bad enough that i couldnt shift even somewhat hard into 3rd.

still havent tried it eh cash?
Ive been wanting to try it also...I have a slight grind in my 3rd gear synchro as well.

everyone who has driven a honda hard for a while has bad 3rd gear synchros. The third gear ones just seem to be the weakest for some reason. My 3rd gear ones were trashed too in my D16Z hatch b4 I sold it.

*AzCivic* · 03-17-2004, 12:00 PM

oddly enough my old tranny only had a slight grind into 2nd, and that tranny had 110,000miles.

pdigg/cash get this stuff you'll be happy you did.

Hmm.... I seem to have a slight grind going into 2nd... is this good in any Honda tranny?

*pdiggitydogg* · 03-17-2004, 07:08 PM
