I think my 3rd gear synchro is gone, when I downshift without blipping it grinds. If I do blip i usually have to get it over 4000 before it stops. Anybody else have this problem.

It's a racing term, blipping means to tap the throttle enough to get the RPM higher than the lower gear. i.e. in fith gear at 3000 RPM I would blip to 4000 RPM and downshift into 4th.
