So the number 7 set is the whole synchro assembly? I would need all of it just to fix the 3rd gear?

you do not need all of it, you only need the syncho gear itself. but you aren't not gonna be able to buy it alone. it only comes in the set like that.

depends on where you go ...this is something that i personally would not try alone without someone that knows how to do it...if i had a manal then maybe...dealer charges about a grand to do it...i only got mine done there because i have a warranty

Honda put out a technical service bulletin on this a while back. Take it to the dealer and complain - see if they'll fix it for free or with a big discount.

It's TSB #01-082 (October 2001). I used to have a PDF file of the actual document somewhere, but I seem to have misplaced it.

Great, thanks for the info. I am not sure they would care though since the engine is in a different car. I wonder if that voids technical service bulletins.

I started driving the car regularly, and I found an easy solution until I can afford all my driveline parts. I just double clutch between 2nd and 3rd. Easy as that.

Hope that helps you guys with transmission woes.
