looks like a pice of your transmission gears?...

[rico05]

No clue wtf that is man.

Pull the shifter and fill through that hole.

[JdrifterCA]

just pull it out? like literally pull?just pull the stick up>?

[Steady_One_S13]

pull the shifter out and pour oil into the opening.

[Justin35ll]

Theres a big c clip on the bottom prob under the boot. take it out then pull the shifter out. You just wont be able to tell how much fluid is in your trans.

I did the same thing cause my fill plug was stuck on, but I got a square socket and breaker bar and then kicked it and it broke loose

[JdrifterCA]

the lil hole at the end?

[EnjoiNismo]

yeah take OFF the shifter, and u can refill from top.

[JdrifterCA]

cant take it off >_< im so fking stupid.

[AZ89two4Tsx]

Is it stuck?

[JdrifterCA]

no. i dont know how. dont see anything to screw or unbolt..

[Razi]

Look under the boot, you should see a c clip.Take out the c-clip and pull out the shifter.

[tonis56]

Can you take a clearer picture of the broken parts? I might be able to identify them.

[Didderson]

Looks like you might be in for a transmission rebuild. I may have a gear or two for you if u need. Not sure which ones are in good shape yet.

[Steady_One_S13]

no. i dont know how. dont see anything to screw or unbolt..

^exampleUse the c-clip pliers to remove the c-cilp

[xX RB Xx]

or you could

put the car in second gear, pull up the rubber boot and put the transmission fluid in like that.

ive done it a quite a few, its a long process but you dont have to do any special.

[JdrifterCA]

ok.. fluid is refilled with 2.5 liters. goona go test drive. and a clear hd picture of the piece of metal will be posted in a hour or so. thanks for all the help guys. apperciated.

[slow40]

synchro

[Steady_One_S13]

^ could be. That's a big metal peice. I hope it isn't major.

[JdrifterCA]

is been hard for me to shift into first or reverse from stop. omg.. synchro?? lolz time to double clutch and rev match... it willbe just like driving my granpas very very very very old jeep hahaha. anyone else have any guess? the peice is about 1 inch long.

[Automato]

those pictures do not help much. try to get better pictures. but from what i can see, that is not a synchro. it looks more like a sheet of thin sheet metal that probably when through some of the gears, that's why its gear shaped in some places. i just took my transmission off last weekend and i noticed one piece in there that was as thin as that piece and pretty fragile.

here are some pics from my transmission, i think its the piece that is circled in red. if it is, you will probably want to check the gears out in case of damage to the teeth.

[Justin35ll]

The first pic it looks like a piece of a gear. Second it looks as thin as tin.

No idea what that is. Doesn't look like a "syncro"

[lilpiton]

I took my transmission apart and i found the same loose part and it was what you see in the picture above...

[hai1206vn]

nice jdm calender

nope, it's all chinese

[verticalstyle]

damn man, that's crazy

[JdrifterCA]

alright, im goona take my transmission out just to check the gears. Gotta be sure everything will be fine before i go race my friends g35 ^^ and pwn him with my 189lbs of torque hahaa.

[SullivanRacing06]

why not undo the 1/2 drive fill hole like your supposed to? when the trannys full the fluid will start coming out the fill hole.

[slow40]

do transmission's use shims or spacers of any sort?

[JdrifterCA]

no tool to get that thing.. lolz i know is sad. I put 2.5 liters, that enough?

Yea it look like the piece u circled in ur pic.

Is been very hard to shift to 1st from stop. Scares me sometimes.
