Yeah, mine grinds when I try to put it in at high RPMs, even with the clutch fully engaged. It's fine if I let the RPMs drop really low though. I'm not sure how much it will cost to fix, it's been doing it for months, I'm not too worried about it though, I'll keep driving it. :)

Yeah dealer cost on the third gear set is a little bit <$270,I ve already bought it. As far as cost to get it installed better ask ,because I havent had it done yet :grinno:

it's not always the gear that is going out. it could be that the sincro is going out in that perticullar gear. my friend has a accord that we switched the auto tranny to a 5 speed it ran really good for a while then 2nd 4th and 5th started to grind in racing conditions. we had it checked out and all it was is the sincro's

interesting, i have a 88 corolla 5spd and it does that on 3rd gear too. also on reverse. normal rpms are okay but under race conditions its always 3rd gear, pisses me off lol. the reverse is just screwed up lol. it grinds A LITTLE everytime.
