Getrag 6Speed R34 Gtr Help

[nomnomv8]

Before you roll your eyes, no this is not another oil question lol..

Basically I am having trouble selecting 2nd gear in my R34 GTR and it feels like there is something blocking it from going entirely in if that makes sense? It doesnt always occur and mainly happens at low RPM's. At higher RPM's and if im giving it abit of throw when putting it into 2nd it goes in fine.

With the car turned off and playing around with the shifter it does exactly the same thing also. Once in gear however it holds through boost fine, doesnt come back out into neutral and makes 0 crunching noise or any other noise for that matter - pretty much drives 100% like it should. The only problem is actually getting the bloody thing in gear !

Obv my first step is going to be to flush the fluid however I am worried that there is a deeper issue at hand. Any help/tips/suggestions ??

Cheers

Sounds like the syncro is stuffed

Go for a drive to award gearbox and diff and get terry to have a look

Cheers mate will give them him a call and try get some answers

Edit: called him up and confirmed that the synchro is most probably stuffed.. Yay more money spent on the car

Lol its a never ending process - I literally picked my gearbox/tc up from Terry yesterday after a rebuild. he was very well priced - much cheaper for a rebuild then getting a questionable 2nd hand box.

Lol tell me about it from forged rebuild, to turbos, to wheels, to body work.. Its the reason why I will develop grey hairs in my late 20's !
