just curious...
i swear i think i've only seen like a total of 5 stick shift accords in my life other than mine

 

does.

5 speeds LX and DX Accords are relatively common, but EX manuals are far and few between.

 

I do I do... and so do a couple of my friends

 

mine wasn't..........

but it is now

 

i have one

 

Liar.

 

yeah i was madskillz shifting the auto when i gave yu0 a ride

 

 

 

Got one here.

Got two busted synchros too. Want 'em?

 

manual

 

me.

oh, I don't count.

 

I do.

 

Sounds familiar.

 

hey my synchro in 5th is terrible... do our trannies suck???

 

YES!!

 

yes, try some redline mtl or bg synchroshift in the gearbox, removed my 5th gear grinds

except i cant shift the damn forks as fast as i want to 1-2 and 2-3 or i grind

 

me too!
5th is gettin really bad and 3rd is gettin there......
i just had my tranny rebuilt a couple months ago too...

 

NOOOOO!!! REDLINE MTL!
Personally I have lost trannies (3 of them) due to red line. This is syncro failure and bearing failure.

 

yeah our synchros suck ****

 

I DO i think i will toast myself

 

2point6, what do you use?

 

I have used a lot of different fluids in the tranny.

I am using Swepco 20wt ATF currently. ATF has more shock absorbing additives that help in cases like hard launches. In other words, it doesn't squeeze out from between the syncros during hard shifts (creating metal to metal contact) I have used Swepco 30wt ATF as well, but the 20wt feels smoother. There have been several posts in the type r forum about using ATF instead of MTF for track use. Swepco is a non synthetic.

Honda MTF or ATF works great as well. I just prefer the Swepco products.

 

I'm thinking of going back to Honda MTL... I haven't been impressed with Redline thus far...

 

Try the Honda ATF. See how it does for you.
