2nd gear grinding when brand new? Sounds defective
4th gear breaking, again w hen brand new? So unless you installed FI on a brand new car, this also sounds like you had crappy luck with a defective transmission.

I'm not trying to sound like an ass or anything, I just dont see how those 3 problems are caused by FI?
I actually said the syncro problem is not caused by FI and I've pulled bad syncros out of car that were not FI
I've said that multiple times. I even tried to take a dealer to court over it. (They said it was FI fault I said it was not) toyota agreed with me on it but it was not worth the lawyer costs when I found a few transmissions for 500$ each.

Shearing 4th gear is 100% FI. Me, @Synack, fullblown, evasive, element.....and a host of others have all sheared 4th gear around the 400whp mark.
