Default Re: D16 Gearbox

An EX tranny (can't remember tranny codename) Makes the first few gears a bit more exciting. And they should be very common.

It depends on exactly whats wrong and if you're paying for labour. If its just the snycro and sleeve that are bad its probably worth fixing, if the dog teeth on the gear are worn its probably cheaper to just pick up another tranny. D-series EX/Si tranny (which should be what you have now) is what you want.
