if im going 70mph+ and try to downshift to 4th or upshift to 4th it grinds before it goes in, it just started happening tonight, i don't know why..
earlier today i let my friend drive the car and he scratched 2nd, that couldnt have caused it could it?

same... i don't let other people drive my car either
revmatching still uses synchros.
you have to double clutch now
spend 100 bucks and get a used tranny

just play around with it
you'll know you got it right when the gear slides into place with a very gentle push
it'll feel smooth as silk
