I have a 94 b18c and about a month ago my third started grinding. I put some synchromesh in along with a new stage one exedy clutch and it reduced the grinding and now there is not grinding whats so ever. I wanna go turbo as soon as spring hits. Should I replace my synchros if im gonna go turbo? Should I just keep em in till they start grinding again and change them then. What kinda of effects can bad synchros have on my tranny? Thanks.

Just boosting isnt going to put any more stress on the synchros.

Theyre not exactly a cheap fix, but check out gear-speed's rather than oem (its whats in my gsr tranny).
Basically, youre getting flakes of brass floating around from damaged synchros, but noting thats going to cause a huge problem.
If youve got the cash and the time, might as well at least think about it - once the fluid bandaid stops working (which it does)

Wait till they start grinding again then put some aftermarket moly coated ones in.

They are if you do them yourself.

If you can do it yourself, sure. If you're gonna pay someone to do it, then might as well get another one.

one of the beauties of working in a dealership.

You can always take it to a machine shop and have them press it in...thats how I got the bushings on my LCA's done. They dont charge that much
