hey i dont know if this is normal but my gears seem to be quite notchy and when shifting in and down to 4th gear it seems like it clicks into place (you can also hear a clik but its not crunching)
a couple of people hav said there supra gearboxs were fairly notchy but werent enirelly sure..
it all engages.....
has anyone experianced or know of this problem?

A good transmission fluid like Castrol Synchromesh will truly do wonders for the gearbox. It could also just be that your transmission is just worn out, but comparing to other cars isn't the right way to figure yours is bad. My subaru trans feels like a slushbox compared to my old Celicas. I miss the notchy feeling.

When it shifts without any funny noises, I really like that I can feel it going into gear.

I test drove an 89 civic with a 5 speed... it was "smooth" sure, but it felt like I was shifting spagetthi....

I'll try to swap the fluid and check those cables... see what happens smile.gif
