You know what really grinds my gears?

[Kai]

As with anything i never buy the shinest thing on the shelf when it first comes out. Had i done that with my computer, i'd have ended up with sub par stuff. In the midrange as far as parts go, you're fairly safe - like i was with a GeForce 7600GT, but when you go high end, like i just did, it gets a lot more complicated. I was looking at getting a Radeon X1950GT, but because i did some reading and waited, i ended up with a Radeon X1950Pro, essentially the same, but cooler running, a little bit faster, and £30 cheaper.

You're like the sort of person that goes out and buys the GeForce 7800GT on release and it all impressed, but mega pissed when 9 months later, the 7900GT replaces it.

I had mine till my brother dropped it 3 feet face first onto the ground.

That was 3 weeks ago, Still worked flawlessly till then

Owned.

I dropped mine more than once from at least 5 feet.

But don't you see the irony here?

The prominent WOMEN of this forum are bitching about YOU bitching... you're a guy right? man the hell up already, or emo up and get an online journal :icon_razz

I just thought there would be some members here who might be able to share my anger.

All your cars have lazy 2nd gear syncros.


It makes me look like an idiot when coming to a stop sometimes

Most of the Supras I've driven grinded into 2nd downshifting at higher RPM.

 

[Tanya]

R154s?

I thought it was only common with W58s..

 

[johnathan1]

My W58 was silky smooth...the R154 is a different story altogether.

ya

W58 would mean I was driving an NA.

and I would never do something crazy like that.:biglaugh:



Mine isn't really that bad... It's only when I'm down shifting from 3rd at high RPM. Rev matching helps though.

Epic fail.

Basically if I downshift above 20 I get some grind.

Oddly enough, if I rev it before downshift, none is present.

Your JDM transmission is backwards.

I wanted to be sure aboutt he R154 thing cause I didn't know if your cars had been NAs that were JZ swapped (still a newb to the scene here )

Ford trans additive might help out in this case Joe!

 

[Big Wang Bandit]

I was going to go with A full synthetic gear oil.
Could I add some ford magic to that Ian lol

 

[IJ.]

Full synthetic may actually make it worse Kyle!

Try the add pack first and see if it settles down!

My black car is NA-TT but that would be gay to use a W58 behind it.
