I've heard that with the B13 Sentra SE-R's they have a problem with the 5th gear when they get higher in miles. Does the 200SX SE-R have these problems?

This is really making me consider not getting a B13. How often does it really happen on a B13? How much on a B14 do you think? Also, if it does pop out, is the only way to fix it to replace the entire trans?

my 91 se-r has 130k on it and i dont have 5th gear popout. i remember seeing a list a while back where all the people signed and you could see how many had pop out and their mileage. dont know where it was though, maybe on se-r.net
I've had 3 B13s that never had 5th gear popout and probably about 6 that have had it.
If you have 5th gear popout, you can usually get away with replacing 5th gear and the 5th gear shift collar. Those 2 pieces basically lock into each other. If you've ever heard of chinese finger cuffs, they kinda work like that.
Yeah I got my fifth gear fixed, with the tranny already pulled, for about 590 parts and labor, had to wait 3 months for the parts to come in. It sucked, but its working great now.

That's a good price. I spent almost $300 on parts, did the work with the help of friends.

What we already know:
There is some seperation of the input and main shafts under WOT that occurs in B13/B14 trannys. This puts a great deal of stress on the ends of the gear teeth (at its worst in 3rd) leading to shearing in high HP scenarios. The B15 tranny does not seem to have this problem and thus holds up much better to high HP applications.
The problem was NOT fixed until the B15/P11 tranny re-design. The B13 tranny and B14 tranny BOTH suffer from this problem.
That ^^^ is how to swap in a re-designed, better, stronger, P11/B15 tranny into your B13/B14.
BTW, make sure you use Redline Shockproof in your tranny, and invest in some Prothane motor mounts. Those will both help with longevity of a B13/B14 tranny.
