Well, since I started the whole Lucas suggestion I will comment on that. I have a '93 Celica (5th gen) and the transaxles are prove to synchonizer failure. The best thing that we have found is the synchromesh. We have used the Red Line and yes it is better then most, but still not better that Synchromesh. Also, the Lucas helps both out alot, we have noticed that too.

To each their own I guess, but we have tried just about everything in the Calicas.
