Hello I recently just put a b16 swap in my eg. 500 miles later my third gear craps out. AT first thrd was kinda hard to put in. but then when it broke i coulndt shift into any gear until i let go of the clutch pedal. could it be my clutch? or is my tranny just craped? any help would be great thanx!

its ur synchros, you would knoe if it was ur clutch because if it wont let you go in gear you would take like 10mins just to move from a stop

Is it just third gear that you're locked out of? All other gears working properly?

wont go in=synchros, popping out=input shaft. basicaly the tranny is trash.

yeah! all other gears work in the meantime.

Synchros are shot then.

Does it grind or does it not go in at all? By the way you make it sound, it's not only your synchros but the gear itself. Can you put it in 3rd while not moving?
