LF/WTB: SR20DET RWD Transmission

Just bought a 91 180sx about a month ago, transmission is rough. doesnt want to downshift from 3-2 or 2-1 even with revmatching unless im going like 15km/h or slower. have to shift like im driving a semi from 1-2 and 4-5 is getting a bit rough... sooo yeah, basically all the synchros are toasty.. got a quote from monkeynutz for 900 for a rebuild.. but i have a feeling it would be more because the tranny is like REALLY rough. found a guy through an aquantance that is selling an sr tranny for 500, says its good with less than 100,000 kms, but i dont personally know the guy, so kind of sketchy about it. anyone know any reputable vendors??

Yeah, the oil seems fine, the car has 160k and used to be drift car. The tranny has been bagged hard . Pretty sure its the synchros. Can feel the shifter relatively loose/looser than it should be.

I have a SR tranny guts in a KA bellhousing for sale....you can swap the guts into your SR bellhousing.

third gear grinds a bit though, which is why i took it out of my car.
