the only maker i know of is gearspeed.

and they dont do anything anyways, not worth it. stock syncros are fine.

i had them once and all they did was make me grind gears.

So as you are stopping you can't put it into first? Or when you are stopped, you can't put it into first?

First of all, synchros for first only come in copper. You can't get those carbon coated. If you get them from gearspeed, they're going to cost you about $30 for first, and $50 for fifth. Then, you have to find someone who knows transmissions to put them in. And no, Nik doesn't know transmissions.

1. Check Tranny Fluid
2. Check Clutch Cylinder Fluid
3. How old is your clutch?

sounds like you may have a bent/broken shift fork as well.
