^ When i had my prelude, i went to like 3 or 4 shops and they refused to use the synchromesh because it was not oem. Always wanted to try it though.

http://www.hardtopguy.com is the only place I could find it.

I heard longterm its bad for the transmission but I think grinding the gears all the time has got to be worse than whatever syncromesh might do!

I went back to Honda MTF from syncrhomesh because I thougth it was "fixed".. a few weeks later and it started to grind again.. I'm back to synchromesh now for good.

I've had the horse for a little over a year. The vet says I'll never be able to ride him though. He's too small, the vet said no riders over 200 lbs...

Yeah, I got him from a shelter when he was only a couple months old. You can't really tell how big they are going to get til they're older. Now he's just the family pet

It has been my experience that Chevy dealers charge exorbitant prices for GM Syncromesh.

Cool, I think I'll give it a try if for some reason my new tranny falls through.
