damn, i accidently grinded third gear for like half a second when i was tryin to be a badass, how bad is that for the tranny? anyone else ever accidently grind thier gears?

 

oh man...that is bad. Seriously bad.

Now you are going to have to change all your transmission gears, your transmission fluid, your gear box, your brake fluid, your front passenger seat and your glove compartment.

That really sux man.

What are you gonna do?

 

Nah man, that's only necessary if you do it in a Honda...

OK but seriously, grinding the gears only once doesn't do much of anything; now if you constantly do it, that's a different story.

 

Yup, no big deal *L*...just don't make a habit of it

 

 

You didn't grind the gears, you grinded the dog teeth against the collar. It's no big deal. It would take some heavy grinding (couple minutes of constant) to wreck the dog teeth. You know if they are wrecked, the car doesn't go into gear.

 

Happens to me once in a while... Nothing big, just don't let it become a habit. I'm getting the SS Clutchline, which will hopefully allow for me to actually be able to tell where my clutch releases and catches, for 60$ from RRM, it's one of the best mods for it's price.

 

Huh? What? *looks back and forth* Did someone call me?
.....sorry, bad joke.

But on a serious note, mine does it 90% of the time going into 2nd but only from first... never from 3rd. The weird thing is though, that it never grinds when I drive the car moderatly hard. Only when I keep the RPM's below 3000ish does it do it. I'm taking it in to Mitsu in the new year.

 

My dad's Porsche '72 does this quite alot into 1st or 2nd from a higher gear... *death to porsche*

 

funny, nice to have a Honduh owner on here being an a$$ in all his posts. Typical.

 

hahahahaha...hey I couldn't help myself.

And soon enough I hope to be back as a WRX owner who makes fun of how slow all you RAs are.... mwaaaaaahahahahahahaa..aa..a....aaaa.....a....?

My honda needs too much work. I give up on it.

And Im going to miss almost buying a Ralliart. It was such a fun car to testdrive.

See you guys later.... in my REAR VIEW MIRROR!

burp.

 

Just saw your other post....think I would go w/ the WRX also. But dam the payments!
AWD would help alot in the snow, too.

Anyway......what was this thread about again?? Oh yeah---stop grinding gears dude, it hurts my ears. Like fingernails on a chalkboard.
