I have a turbo mr2 and my 2nd gear has a grind in it and I was wondering if it is possible to replace the gear itself or does the whole tranny have to be replaced? If I can just replace the gear where can I possible got one from? Thanks

read the post on 1st to 2nd grinding...
it's more likely your synchros.
I'm going to do the same though just cause my synchros have been crap for a while. i THINK we can do just the second gear... otherwise its not so bad cause the e153 gearbox in the MR2 T is the same as the v6 camry! (except shifter assembly on other side) so parts aren't too bad.
But i still think its just your synchro playing up

that would have been a REALLY good time to replace the synchros... the things are like 50 bucks but getting the box out to do it is like 500...or a grand here!
