i'm guessing your running a pretty much stock y8. You basically wasted money on i/h/e. Dont know why your running a stage 2 clutch....anyways back to the your question. The reason for your grinding is your synchro's are wearing down. Your synchros wear down by miss shifting too much and not pressing the clutch all the way through shifts. What to do??? At the moment by some GM synchromesh tranny oil and see what that does. If it fixes it then your good, if it doesn't then deal with it until you can afford a new/used tranny.

Because you enjoy shifting like Paul Walker. Don't worry about it, if you're lucky you could possibly just have some walked bearings or something. Enjoy trying to fix that, or just buy another Y8 tranny for next to nothing.

 

...u don't necesarily have to buy a new/used tranny if you don't want to...i had the same problem and just got some synchros from gear-speed for 75 bucks shipped and dropped them in my tranny...good as new, and i'm loving it...

Yeah, like I said. Enjoy the repairs, or just get a comparable tranny for a low few hundred.

Yeah, you just need to look around. Good prices present themselves to those who are patient.

yes you dont have to buy a new/used tranny, its the cost of the synchro's and esp. the labor. If you know what your doing go ahead and get a replacment synchro. If not your better off buying a new/used tranny.

X infinity

 

maybe if you add halo lights, youll gain about 10 horses...then next time you can pull up to a mustang and spank HIS ***...

 

Its the karma gremlins attacking your tranny.

STOP RACING ON THE STREET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

okay guys haha give the op a break, i think he's had enough compliments haha.

OP GL with the grinding problem.

 

just looking at your mod list I would like to throw up all over your car. like, are you ******* kidding me? racing harness for a 127hp car? what is this world coming to?

 

why dont you sale your spaceship and buy a normal honda.
you make the rest of us look bad

 

AEM Cold Air intake,Front Strut bar,DC sports header (Wrapped it),Full Ractive Exhaust,Stage 2 clutch from Advance clutch tech,Blitz body kit,Carbon Fibre hood,APC short shift,Big R-1 racing spoiler (i hate it),Euro style altezza lights,
Tuner FX racing seats with summit racing harness's,

 

Unfortunatly its going to eventually turn from grinds, to popping out of gear, and eventually not go into gear at all. Its a slippery slope of progressivly worse problems. Save the trouble and get it either rebuilt or replaced asap.

o0o ractive exhaust. ? that made my stomach turn. some of ur mods r unneccesary for the hp u have. but that exhaust sounds like a fart can on crack. id just assume put a stock exhaust set up if u agree with my previous statement.

 

Alright alright, we get it, enough ripping on this newb.

To the OP: Replace your tranny, and take your list car mods out of your signature so you wont get ripped on.

someone /thread.

 

This is going nowhere....
