Default New member Tranny Grind Question

Hi my name is Nick,

I just joined and i have 2 questions.
I just bought a 2000 Honda Civic HX Coupe w/ 5 Speed Tranny
this is my gas saver car.

When i shift UP to 3rd Gear, i almsot always get a grind, except when i am going slow. I am not shifting at 7K or anything just normal 4K shifts, it will also grind when i DOWNshift into first. but those 2 gears are the only ones, otherthan that is does not grind in anyother gear. down or up... I am not driving hard and the car only has 92000 Miles, what could be the reason for this.

Thank you.

and my second question is, my car came with Altezza Taillights, I just want stock tail lights that will fit a 2000 HX coupe, any links or help were i could buy them would be great.

Here is a pic

since it is only on specific gears, i would say your syncros are worn, its a big job fixin those, if its not toobad then leave it, or if it is then rebuild the tranny or drop a new one in
