second gear problem

Second gear is grinding when i try to shift out of first at a high rpm[anything higher than 4 and a half]. If u shift out of first at a low rpm it is smooth. Everyother gear is smooth to. Is my transmision shot. Any other ideas what it could be.

synchro

How much is it to replace and is it a painful job

The part is only like $80 at kormex, however, some tranny shops wont do the work because they don't want to warranty it. So just search around until you find someone who will swap individual synchros. If you do a search or PM youngvr4 you will get plenty of information.
