Tranny prob? pl. hlp

[goin180ina30]

Alright, here's my prob I just bought a 90 integra it's in great condition, but I dont exactly know whats up with the tranny. It grinds when I gear down into first, and when I shift from 2nd to 3rd and from fourth to fifth, but shifts down alright from 4th to to 3rd it will go into those gears a lot easier if I wait for the revs to come down between shifts. Going into 2nd and fourth either way slides great. Its drivable and all the gears dont slip, it just takes babying to get into said gears. From what I've read on the threads I'm gonna change my tranny fluid. Being new to Integras I'm an instant convert and only really know that its a b18 engine but would sure love some feedback pl.

i think you need a tranny my friend!

i agree

your synchros seem to be going bad, but there is a simple test to find out.
With integra off and e brake on, run through every gear. if it slides in with no problem, your clutch is bad. if it has trouble or will not go into gear, your tranny or synchros are bad.

yea, i have the same problem with my tranny in my 92 integra, ive been told numerous times that the syncros are messed but ive fixed it sometimes when im doin stupid shit in my car and im throwin it into gears really hard and itll move shit around(so it seems) and itll be all good, but hard to get into another gear... but it dosnt grind!! ahha.. but neways, ur syncros!

do the check with the engine off, if it goes smooth you need a throw out bearing more than likely. If it is still hard even with the engine off then it may be your synchros.

I would say that it is a throw out bearing only because that would be more likely than synchros.
