This is a car related thread even though the title is what it is....

My sr20det 5 speed tranny is having a problem. I'm guessing the mileage is the same as my engine which is around 70k. I put fresh fluids in about 2 months ago and the tranny was doing amazing until today. Every gear seems to grind if I try to switch gears. If I double clutch it or take like 2-3 seconds with the clutch pressed in then shift, then it goes into gear fine. Also when I'm down shifting it shifts smooth no grinds. My TOB is bad and needs to be changed. I was just wondering if its the TOB causing my problem or something else. I plan on changing out everything with a clutch kit but I'm just curious about whats causing this problem.
