So what I know is:
  1. The removal of slop inside the transmission.
  2. Some shiming of the detent pins for a firmer gear engagement
  3. Other little miscellaneous improvements.
Since my scynros are shot he is replacing all of them as well as my 5th/6th broken shift fork.

Now to under stand some more on the history of my trans, mine failed Soon after switching to Redline MT85. Not saying this was the cause, but before I swapped fluid I was running Motul Motylgear 75W90.

the Second Transmission I had put the same Redline MT85 in, and lasted 3 track day weekends. It's still in the car now, but has issue.
So we are looking in to fluids as well to help with scynro life as well.

We also noticed some wear on the 5th/6th shift fork,on the 5th gear movement side. This is most likely caused my the natural rotation of my shoulder when shifting to 5th. The rotation is a motion that when I shift, I am adding about 5 degrees of angle (to the right) to the upward movement when shifting to 5th. This is something I will have to correct when shifting.


Hope this helps
