Sounds like you need to reco your gearbox if all the other gears are fine.
Have you tried putting it into say 4th....then tried reverse again?
Also try movingt the car (in 1st) a bit and try again.
If still no luck......you might have a problem with your rever selector = $$$
with the engine not running will it go in ?????
Just pump the clutch, happens all the time

Thumbs up It happens to me all the time. Just like Ironfist said just keep pumping the clutch and it will go in. I've also noticed that my 1st gear sometimes doesnt want to go in as well. I sometimes need to put it into 2nd gear then first just to get in it. Does this happen to other teg vtir owners as well? It annoys the hell out of me when I'm in neutral at the lights with cars behind me and the damn thing wont pop into 1st. Does anyone what's the real cause of the problem?
cheers
worn gearbox. How much is a rebuild anyways?
must be expensive, but i would like to know "how much" 2, bcos i might need to rebuild mine soon .
how long is a peice of string
well you dont know until you measure it. same for your gearbox, you can pay top dollar or fixed price for a rebuild but your paying for things it probably didnt need, until its been dismantled and examined you dont know what is at fault. may not even be the gearbox at the end of the day, could be your hydraulic clutch mech.
me too. gbox has been a bit smoother since pornstar serviced it though ;)
*shoutout*
well back when i had a suby...price for a gear box was around 4k mark. Would it be stand to believe that to have the gear box rebuilt/replaced on a honda integra be in the same ball park?
I don't think you have to go to the extreme of gearbox rebuilding.
I've had my car for near 3 years and it does it in reverse and sometimes in first (hardly), but besides that it works always
This is similar to my situation, First of all, When i start the car and i wanna go into 1st or reverse.. It seems that i can't jam it in the gear. Supposing i reverse then i wanna go to 1st, IT GETS STUCK. I try to budge it out but the only thing i can do it stall the car. When i do that, it pops out of gear and i'm all good to goto first!
Don't know if its the gearbox or the Synchro.?? Don't know about the clutch?what u think??
got a quote some time ago to rebuild: $1200 :o
my synchros were dieing, took a cheaper alternative to fix it, $113 for redline gearoil :)
1200 to rebuild....thats not bad. Was that a straight up rebuild? or was there aftermarket gears involved?
would it be cheaper to get new gearbox ?, maybe not cheaper in the sense of recon is $1500 and new box is $2000 or woteva but if you are fixing a problem then it is more likely to happen again, where as with a new one it is fine and has warranty...hmm up to you...but if its stuffed cos you thrash it you might need stronger box
I wouldn't bother rebuilding a VTiR box, i'd hunt for a TypeR box (if it's not too far above budget)

hmmm any companies that build aftermarket gear boxes for the type R?
Spoke to a friend this arvo/evening and he said that 1200 is way too high. He then went into this detailed description of how to get the box out and replace the bearings and etc etc ....totally lost me but then again this same guy does most of the work on his car. Anyways back to the point of the gear box...in the context of replacing the synchro's....he reckoned 400 bucks for the parts themselves. I think im going to try and convince him to rebuild my box :D...hahaha. First of all though....the dry carbon fiber bonnet!!!
