Apparently my 914 needs new syncros...since I am a weekend mechanic at best
my thought is to just get a new tranny.... estimates are about 2 grand...wow!
I might not be able to sell the car for that..

Question..

Are there other trannys from other cars that might work?
Is replacing the syncros something a weekend hack could undertake?

Don't Volkswagon's have trans axles ...are there kits that could convert?

The car is fun to drive and all but is by no means a hot rod...
I just want to be able to shift smoothy through the gears...
I am not one to drive over 100 mph often...
Just looking for it to be a nice driver...the motor is new...


any advice appeciated ...
