Gear Box Or Clutch Problem.

[poobah]

hey all.

i've got a rb20det, and i always thought that my 2nd gear syncro was on its way out, coz its hard to down gear into it from 3rd or 4th without it crunching. and it would only change when going under 40km or when the box was warm. so it was always on the cards to get a new box when i could afford it.

but just recently my mate had a drive of my car and noticed that my clutch pedal was sticky, and didn't return to its proper postion.

and he said that the reason its not returning is that the clutch is getting worn and that it hasn't got enough pressure to push the pedal back up.

and this is the reason i havn't been ab;e to shift gears properly and crunching gears..

so i'm not sure if i need to replace clutch or gear box?

i'd just like to hear any other thoughts from anyone.

cheers.

could be both now, sounds like the the thrust bearing is sticking to the snorkel of the gearbox causing the clutch to "drag" wich in turn has caused your sycoros to die, all bad news there,

thats no good!lol might have to save up to do both at the same time.

thanks for your input.
