Didn't have any good runs today... if it wasn't one thing it was another ... pretty sure my 2nd gear syncro is on it's way out. But I solved my launching issue by disabling the speed shift function -- might need to switch back to the OEM clutch pedal assembly because the RJM is causing false triggers on the upper switch on hard launches.
If anyone has a lead on a good CD009 transmission let me know!
It was crowded and people kept breaking so we only got 1 run in
It was alright until about 7:00. That was the first big break down I saw. Someone broke his rear end on the tree. they had to put dollies under the rear tires and it took forever to get the POS off the track. I got about 6 runs before that. Best 60ft 1.70 but grinded 1-2 on almost every run and let off. I've always had issues with 1-2 but it's way worse now. Need to upgrade to CD009 asap.
Whats the cost of someone going in and replacing the syncro?
From everything I've heard/read it's a major PITA and cheaper to get a used one from the market place. The only thing that sucks about CD009 is they switched to the CSC (concentric slave) and early ones had major problems and to replace the CSC you have to drop the whole trans. On CD008 and earlier the slave is on the outside.
Probably going one more time this coming Friday and will try to get there early. Anyone going? I really want to run the WRX but am worried since I had a strong smell of clutch the last time. I could always line up against a Z...
