Re: Might be getting a 3kgt vr4 got some ?s

lol ik, im not selling drugs im a telemarketer and work at mci like i said im only 17, so i dont have any real bills to pay, so what better than cars? and the real reason i wont a 94+ is because of the non pop up headlights, and im getting a body kit, and the kits look alot better w/o the headlights

Kormex makes hardened synchros I belive?? Maybe just stronger ones.. You can buy all replacement synchros for just under $300 from CRS..

C46 1st/2nd Outer ring 31.13
C47 1st/2nd Blocking ring 15.03
C48 1st/2nd Inner ring 23.93
C45 1st/2nd Set of three rings 70.09 Times 2
C11 3rd/4th Synchro ring 22.95
C63 5th Synchro ring 65.40
C74 Reverse synchro ring 68.00
296.53

If you dont make huge HP most people say the above ones or stock ones are just fine. Mine lasted 100k miles so im sure these could last around that..

Where do u live?? There is one guy on 3si that does it pretty cheap.. I can find out wheres hes from, I have an idea where he is around anyway..

It really depends.. Some shops might quote $200 some may quote $1000, its really hard to say.. Ive never looked into replacing them.. I was about to but decided I could live with it because I did the clutch/flywheel the winter before and didnt feel like doing it again..

OH ok the guy is from NC so that wouldnt work.. Ive heard several people talk about driving to him cause it was fairly cheap to do.

Also if you are someone you know if good with instructions and/or working on cars. Check out vr4stealth.com There is a write up of how to do it with pics and that..

i am really not sure about the $200 figure, i kinda pulled that one outa my ass. come to think of it, just getting it in and out might cost $200 but i do not think the synchro work would be that much more. i would go to 3si.org and find a local group of enthusiests. i bet one of them could help you do it or tell you about someone in your area that will do it for cheap and is reliable.

the $300 is for all of them though right? i would suggest replacing all of them at once too (might as well) but wouldn't it be cheaper just to do one or two gears?

I found those #'s on 3si.. When I look at it.. I think its more then $300, it says $70 times 2, and I dont think they added that in there..

Personally I would take the tranny out yourself or they will charge you far more then $200 just for that.. Probably $200 for pullin, $200 for putting it back in.. Thats on the cheap side.. According to one site it takes about 8hrs to pull the tranny and put it back in.. 8hrs x (what)$70 is a lot of cash..

I pulled my tranny with the help of my brother and its a pain but doing it again wouldnt be as bad.. It took up probably 15hrs to do the whole thing(clutch/flywheel &tranny up/down)

I would personally buy all the synchros.. My car has 106k miles on the TT so I might as well do them all if I do it..

But you are right.. I would probably at least do 1st,2nd,3rd, and maybe even 4th.. Chances are the car hasnt been hammered into 5th that often.. Sometimes reverse wares out though as well..

My luck is bad so I would just change them all.. But u could take the figure I posted(not sure how up to date it is) but then just add up the gears you wanna change.. or subtract the ones you dont want..
