Hey everyone one I hope someone can help me. I recently bought Rjb23's car and I beleive he has the 7th gen short shifter and mr2 tans w/o lsd. The shifter feels much stiffer than othe car but thats not the problem. The shifter will be reall stiff but then it will get really lose and if you go into a gear in will be in a completely different gear...You can be driving and when your in first its like ur in 3rd or you will wan to shift into 3rd but it will be a downshift...this only happens when the shifter gets really lose. The only thing I did was pick up the car in Kentucky and drive it to new jersey which it like a 12 hr drive and havent really driving it much...I am a lil worried becaue when this happens the clucth smokes a lil and you can smell it..Does anyone no what this could be and how bad it is or how hard it is to fix...Thank you. O he said the car also has a stage 2 clutch..Thanks again ~shannon

I can shift the car with it on but It seems that I need to downshift it first.
I took the shifter off but to be honest I was just trying to buy a car that was complete bc I dont no much about this kind of stuff so I have no idea what I am looking at. I think it is the shifter cables or linkage or something not the clutch but I am not real sure....What if I took pics of the shifter? -------------------- |
