hmm, that may be it. all of them are missing lol. going to order some from Nissan.

Yeah, I was kicking myself in the behind when I sold my first on. I got it for $350 shipped to my door and it had like 40k miles. sold it locally with the whole Hydro pedal stuff and B15 shifter rods, from what I've herd everything worked great!

as for the price, I'm not going to lie, I got 2 of these for $200 each

^I believe my first and second gear syncro's have some wear on them. I usually skip second in the morning times until my car gets warmed up good, then it's not crunchy going into second.

Crack open your FSM. Whole section on checking bearing preloads/synchros/synchro/bearing clearances (MT section). That way you can be 100% sure that your trans is gonna be good to go.
