gianttomato: Will check with magnet tonight. Someone else had a look at my gears yesterday (from one of the old boxes) and said it looks like some of the layshaft gears are getting a hell of a lot of load on them, they're really really worn.

Gearshift has always been very notchy (in all my boxes, especially the two AE86 ones). Have tried running auto fluid in one of the Celica box and it did make shifting easier, but I wonder if that would be too thin and make the box die early? Have also tried that "uber goo thick stuff" that's meant for like... umm... helping with older engines and gearboxes and stuff, and it made shifting very very hard while it was still cold.

drift86levin: I got my engine from Anthony Kellam, was told that the spigot bearing had been put in. Doesn't it not work if you don't have one of these? I think I remember seeing a bearing-like thing in there when I last took the box out...
