ok so my car went into the shop about 9 days ago for a trans rebuild and clutch upgrade. throughout the process they have had to take it apart and put it back together 3 times due to little sh*t fu**in up upon test drive. so i get a call from them saying my car is good to go and i go there and fire it up and shes got this click in the transcase. i tell the guy and he starts cussin about "how the hell did his guy not here that click and we gotta take it back apart" he says hes gonna check to see if the input shafting is moving around or if the gears have a chip or burr of some sort. so i call him today and my shaft is spinning and seated perfect and the gears are perfect and he (the professional) cant figure it out go figure it would be my car that has a trans mechanic confused but what the hell is wrong with my baby?

ok so clicking when in neutral and idling, goes away when the clutch is depressed or engine revs, but its not the slave or anything in the bell housing area. the shaft can be wiggled and the synchro hubs are making the clicking but the synchros are fine?

he is going to call a guy on the east coast in the morning that he goes to sometimes for answers so i might have this issue resolved sooner than responses from you guys but i know some of the guys on here are very knowledgable on this car and i told him that i would research on my end.

and keep in mind that once this car is back to me i should be posting high 13s so its in the families interest to help me out hehe

ok gear rollover and the spec clutch. got it. and yes i have the stage3 with upgraded trans internals so i will contact spec in the morning and call the trans guy today with the rollover possibilty.

in response to roz...i have a sh*tload done to my baby in the way of 3L hybrid swap with most available boltons and a clean suspension set up etc etc etc. i have a full list on cardomain with some pics although the site is in preperation for more pics...once the trans gets fixed (if it will ever be fixed ) i will be installing a custom stereo setup. i have posted mid 14s as of now with a junk clutch, bad tires and i [censored] 3rd gear and thats on top of hawaii times which are on average .3-.6 slower than mainland. shes quick and im tired of damn rentacars and bummin rides. well i take that back about the rentacars, there tires seem to dissapear so quickly

heres the cardomain link
