Just wondering for those who know or have rebuilt there M5R2 where I should go to locate new parts for my tranny as we are going to rebuild it. I did a few searches and found a place called southern gear. Is this a preferred place?
We opened mine up today and found that it had brass syncros for all the gears, and I presume from what I have read, that that didnt' come from the factory like that? The car only has about 86k on it so I am kind of baffled. 2nd gear was grinding like crazy, and it was difficult shifting into the others.
Also, will I need to buy all the specialty tools to complete this job, or is there somewhere I can get a kit to perform the rebuild. What have others on the board done?
Any other info that might be helpful will be appreciated!
Thanks, Mark.
