Tansmission rebuild cost

[nucleara]

Just as the title states, how many of you peoples have had your manual transmissions rebuild, I need to just replace the syncros. so prices and places please.

Pertaining to 90-93 Accord automatic tranny rebuilds based on 2 family sources, they have ranged $1300-1500. That's all the info I have. Manual should be easier for tranny shops.

[JunyAccord]

the shop i asked said $250 each syncro. Thats without removing the trans from the car itself.

[turbo90accord]

just get a good manual and do it yourself, its only a 1 day job and its pretty easy to do.

If you get on ebay you can find carbon synchros for the H tranny which should be the same exact thing. I think there whole set for 1-5 is 250-300 bucks. I will try and find the seller.

*edit*
There name is synchrotech.gearspeed on ebay
and here is an auction for h22 synchros Here

[nucleara]

yeah I looked at the carbon syncros on ebay, I was trying to see if a shop could do it under $400, o well looks like I need to get a manual to read

[turbo90accord]

carbon synchros are great but not worth the cost if you are always thrashing gears and eventually going to have to replaced them again.

do they wear out easier?

[h22sparkle]

No its slighty harder to thrash em up depending on your driving style ,how much power is being thrown at it etc. Only time will tell on that.

[CB7Man]

From what I read, the Carbon is just a coating which would just wear off pretty quickly....
Doesnt sound like something to throw $400 on

[H23CB7]

Well i dont see them wearing out any faster than OEM ones. Besides they are cheaper than oem replacement and i am sure they would last longer and handle more power better.

[cb9wagon]

you would be suprised how much better the composite/carbon syncros work. as for wear it depends how good the particular one is you purchase.

brass syncros work great though. i can buy a bearing kit with honda brass syncros for around 300 at the local tranmsission wholesale warehouse.
i wouldnt' mess with the expensive syncros if it was mine, just personal opinion though

when i rebuilt my tranny i used ones from honda.they ran me about 600.they are really easy to install....there was a civic form just like this that had a diy sec that showed u how to change the gears and misc parts in the tranny thats how i learned how to do it.although i cant remeber the site.if any one else knows it they will post it.

it was on honda-tech I have seen it. I have access to a press and a machine shop (my work) so I'm thinking about getting the ones from syncrotech because I have good reviews about them. I need to clean my spare tranny I have laying around (gotta love picknpull's low prices) and I'll rebuild that after I finish my turbo rebuild. thanks for the help guys.
