So after some frustrating conversations with Ming... and a long wait... He was unable to find any OEM syncros for the car... I found a E-51 transmission rebuild kit recommended by Matrix garage from Cobra Transmissions in Florida... just under $700 for the kit... Still waiting to hear back from Ming with an estimate for the tranny rebuild, installing new clutch, LSD, flywheel and replacing the steering rack... I have an appointment for the 24th to bring the car in... he's supposed to call me today with a quote...

Now that Brant is no longer working looks like he has started working on the engine again slowly... Looks amazing... No Idea how I'm going to afford to get this installed :)

 Its come to the realization I never thought would ever happen... I cant believe I'm writing this... Im going to have to sell Yoshida... financially it makes the most sense and since it looks like Im retired at this point :) and moving to Japan, with no smog setup on the car... forget about it... I'll probably drive her a few more months to the cafe... wow... I REALLY thought I would never sell her... I imagined just staring at her in the garage when I was too old to drive her... Oh well... I can just focus on my wetplate and SIM racing... life is crazy... I never got to finish the turbo upgrade with alcohol water injection...
