first I KNOW THIS IS NOT A 240SX FORUM. but i feel this question/ problem could be a "universal" car question. pluse there are a ton of intelligent people on this forum so i need everyones opinions.



ok...so i know most you guys dont know i broke the tranny in my rb25det about a month ago. well i just finished puttin a "new" one in this weekend, along with a 6 puck act clutch. when i took it out for a drive there were several extremely weird things going on.
first thing i noticed was that the gear box was a little difficult to go through(found this out will we we installing the shifter. I could go through all 5 gears and reverse but it was a little difficult at first. 2nd thing was when i was driving, 2nd gear was hard to put in gear. when i tried it seemed like i was missing the gear..made that horrid griding sound. after awhile i could get it into 2nd though. the 3rd weird thing is when i put the car in reverse...it went forward, as in i dont have a reverse gear. Now during this little test run of the car that lasted less then a mile ever once and awhile we would hear a grinding sound coming from the tranny...clutch, not sure where, we just heard a grinding sound.
we get the car back in the shop and jack the rear end up. while the car was in neutral, the rear wheels were spinning at a somewhat slow speed. when we pulled the ebrake to stop them, the car stalled.
Some noteable things. We did not use the throwout bearing that came with the clutch kit. when the car is off, it is difficult to go throw the gears unless the clutch is engaged, and even then its still a little bit challegeing. we bleed the clutch so we know its not that. Also, when driving the car...it "felt" like ever gear was first gear, if that make sense.
Anyways, can anyone tell me what the hell is wrong with my car now, i have a feeling its prob the clutch/pressure plate/throw out bearing not being installed correctly, but my buddy is telling me it is the syncro's in the "new" tranny.

PLEASE IF ANY ONE CAN HELP EVEN THE SLIGHTEST BIT I WILL HAVE 6 POUND BABY JESUS BLESS YOU FOREVER SINCE ME AND HIM ARE TIGHT LIKE THAT

I agree with cheeco. It is deffinately not your throwout bearing. If you cannot shift smoothly when the car engine is off it indicates something in the trans or the linkage. It sounds to me like you have the ability to shift into more than one gear or are really close to being that way. That means that the forks are bent or that you have bad syncro sleeves either way it should be inspected and possibly rebuilt.
