Re: Finally got my Evo

When does it grind? My 5th gear grinds any time I shift into it over 4000 RPM and it's been like this for a few years. Live with it until you can fix it the right way.

Pretty much what you described. I would really like to drag race it this summer though. I don't know, it just really sucks. Disappointing as this trans is already the 2nd one the car has had in it and it is only supposed to have ~30k miles on it by now. It's a real light grind, not like total gear chipping action yet, but I'd still like it taken care of before total destruction.
