noise wont bother me really justin, just curious like, have you gone close ratio or std? also have you uprated the selector forks? (guess this makes a difference to the change?) personally i dont change gear like im trying to pull the box out like dingy so wasnt going to uprate the forks and keep std

Ive had that problem before on road boxes with quickshifts fitted, you end up moving the selector forks so fast that you beat the synchros
