I have a problem with my H pattern?
Ok, I have a problem getting into 5th gear. The problem is it feels like 5th gear is like half and inch to the left of wear it should be. If I were to push my shift **** all the way to the left, then push up it will not go in 5th. Instead it will go into this little pocket type thing.
Here is a little pic to give you a better idea.
P.s I really hate the synchros on the 03's. They are a peice of crap. 3rd,4th both grind when shifted into at high rmp's
Btw, I got the car this way.

I know what you mean though. If it's still under waranty sounds like it's time for a new tranny on Nissan. If not then either deal w/ the grinding and 5th gear probs until your tranny is shot, then replace it, or go ahead and fork out the $1700 or so (plus install) and get a 009 series tranny (used in the 05 and up models)

If it's still under warranty, get it replaced for the 3rd and 4th grind. The 5th gear issue is probably just a misaligned shifter guide plate.
I had my tranny replaced under warranty for 3rd gear grind. the new tranny had a similar problem engaging 5th gear. it just needed an adjustment.

I would like to be able to shift into any gear I want with out hearing that annoying sound. Especially when I grind in front of other cars, that's just embarrassing.

Ok, I have just talked to a guy at Nissan and he said, my warranty is good for 60,000 miles( I have 41,000 so far ), or till mid of 2007. My question now is weather or not any of my mods in my sig will interfere with my warranty?
I'm scheduled for 7 a.m tomorrow. I really hope he doesn't call me and tell me that my warranty was avoided for my mods!
Do you guys think it will???

there is a white piece of plastic down under the shift boot that guides it into 5th, sometimes when you mess with the shifter (new shift ****, clutch install, etc) this white piece will turn a bit and not let it shift smoothly up into 5th...
i would have that looked at, its really easy to fix...
ALSO, a lot of peoples grinding gears are due to driving incorrectly, try pushing the clutch in jsut a little bit before you normally would on your shifts. this helps most people...

Ya my momo is basically half way off right now on the account of it's broken. But do you think this will really be an issue at the dealer? I mean I guess if it's a big deal I could get my brothers stock shift **** off and use it, I'm just scared I might mess something up.
How do I get the boot off?

stock **** is a pain to unscrew without messing it off, but it does unscrew, right when you unscrew off the ****, then put your hand in the back part of the plastic around the shift boot, pull up on it, it just pops right up, then unplug the AC controls and you are good to go...
