Well..when i throw my transmission into reverse, i hear a loud knocking and a shudder going through the car. The other thing is, sometimes the shifter will refuse to go into 1st gear. I have a 92 coupe i just bought(1st 240 :) ), it just had a tune up, and new clutch put in. Maybe its just me? But ive never felt the shuddering in my friends S14. One last thing.. is it normal to be able to shift gears without the clutch being pressed in if the engines not running when my cars just standing?

i get the clunk sometimes when i slam into gear real fast into first. My friend drove it and he SLAMS the shifter into first with the clutch down and it grinds / thumps

the solution? be more gentle.

as for shifting gears when the car is off thats fine too

Any idea when i get a big ole' shudder throwing it into reverse from a stand still? *phew* this has taken a lot off my shoulders, i dont think i could afford a transmission job at this point.. now to fix the connection from my headers to my exhaust =) any idea what that piece is cold? from headers till the cat?
*sigh* i hate being a :newbie:
