Thanks guys

@chard88 + @koevi I know this thread is years on, any luck with a resolution? Same thing is happening to my DC2R.

3rd gear is crunching at 5,000 RPM + from 2nd to 3rd gear shift. Doesnt make any crunch or grind noises with shifts below 5,000 RPM. Im thinking the reverse and 3rd gear issues are related?

Experiencing a lot of heat coming from the shift area as well. I read on an MX5 forum could be lower shift bushings / shift boots.

Thoughts?

I had the same issue with my DC2R gearbox, I changed to Honda MTF and the 5k RPM crunching went away. I recommend saving coins for new Synchro;s they make a lot of difference
