Problem with type R trany from japan

Here's the deal. I have a type R trany in my car and my 3rd gear is going bad. I need a 3rd gear synchronizer for a japan spec trany, NOT USDM. Won't work. If anybody knows where i can get one please post one up. I got to have one.
Thanks

USDM part should work, only 4/5 gears and the FD are different. so being that the case, your 1/2/and 3rd gears are identical to the USDM type r tranny! hit this link for reference:
