What kind of comment would you like? I have a 02' Mini with a Midlands 5 spd. and the 2nd gear syncro went out. Im using parts from Minimania to repair it. New syncros for each gear, specific bearings, new forks. And im saving a good amount of money instead of buying a rebuilt. I dont know if that helps you. Although i think they should have gone with the Getrag, Maybe the Mini has to much power for a small little tranny?
