3rd gear crunch - advice

[EG30]

Thanks for the explanation and the pictures! After your comments I am thinking I might just take it apart and have a look, and if it isn't salvageable without changing a heap of parts then I will just continue to double clutch it into fourth and see how far I get. Not too keen on wasting much more money on this B series driveline than I already have. If it was just a matter of replacing the basic stuff along with the 3-4 sleeve/hub then I might rebuild but from the sounds of things it could be a lot worse.

Good luck with the refresh dude, hope it's just the 3-4 sleeve/hub set and synchros rings set you need, plus a few seals and bearings ( which most of them can be sourced cheaply from bearing shops ).

remember the bearing prices on top of your head? oem honda is $40+ from US.
if local suppliers selling for $50+ its better to buy local as long as they're good bearings (koyo, ntn etc)

I got mine thru a fren who bought in some other Honda geniune parts from Jp and cost me about $60 for the pair of diff side bearings. Local bearings shops about the same also about $65 for the pair for NTN bearings same as honda ones.

so im going to get the following :
Xtreme Flywheel + 3.9kg flywheel for around the 500 mark. ( my cousin owns AutoPro Homebush so i got looked after with that)

repairs on the gbox:1300 mark

includes removing and installin the clutch n flywheel, the 3/4synchro replaced along with all the sleeves. He is also changed the gears, synchro hub master, bearings and fluids.

so all up should be under 2k and ill have a near new box with new clutch n flywheel.

opinions?

thanks fellas
