First off, let me just state right now that I am just learning to drive stick so I'm still a bit of a newbie (I know, I know, how couldn't I have learned how to drive stick while learning to drive...I've heard it all). Anyway, the reason I say that it doesn't appear to have a synchro is that, unlike 2nd and 3rd, I cannot downshift into 1st if the car is moving at any appreciable speed. Perhaps mine is simply broken in my transmission? We recently had the transmission out, however, and everything looked really good inside...nothing appeared obviously chewed up or broken.
