Default turbo gsr transmission problems.

okay well lets start from the beginning. around aug. the when the car was compeletly stock (gsr in ek) i took the car to the track and made a first run. from oklahoma city to tulsa (1hr 30 mins) and before since i owned the car the tranny was perfectly fine. when i got to the track and i made my first run 1st to 2nd was perfect and as i threw into 3rd it felt as if i hit a brick wall w/ no grinds. this happened for the rest of the day. a week later i put a competition stage 4 clutch in and turbo'd the car. i forgot to grease up the throwout bearing. now when i go to the track second gear grinds and locks me out and third just holds me out like before. when im on the street and floor it up to redline in 1st gear and hold down the clutch the car seems to stay in gear for 2 seconds then the clutch activates. i would take it to a shop but shops in oklahoma city dont seem to do to well. anyone help?

and also will a hydro throwout bearing work with a cable throw out bearing? my friend gave me a brand new honda throwout bearing but he said he ordered it for a cable transmission

thanks in advance

1.) do you have any codes?

2.) is your clutch master or slave cylinder leaking?

3.) why the hell would you rev your car to redline with the clutch pushed in?

1 no codes

2 no thier not leaking

3 i was testing to see how accurate my tach and my shiftlight are. and when im driving and i take 1st gear to redline then step on the clutch the car stays in gear untill it drops below 7k then it disengauges. so its the same concept. clutch stays engauged at high rpm.


so i replaced my throwout bearing today. greased it up and replaced with a new oem honda one. refilled tranny with penzoil syncromesh. still the same problems. does a master and slave cylinder always leak when thier bad? i flushed my clutch fluid maybe 4 months ago and its already dirty and has some milky black stuff in it..

i was thinking that maybe since my clutch engauges at high rpms it might be the reason i get locked out of gears. but i cannot figure out why its engauging

sounds like maybe some air in the clutch line... bleed her down good, brake fluid is cheap.
