Select reverse and disconnect the linkages at the gearbox. If that stops it popping out then its between the linkages and shifter. If its the same its internal.
yeah did that, jumped out. have a spare RS box that was of "unknown" condition just pulled that apart and checked reverse idler lever against the original one, yep its bent!
spare box looked like its just had a rebuild! still had assembly lube on the gears/bearings etc reassembled it and its going back in the car. Old box has had a hard life and due for rebuild. wouldn't mind giving it to somebody that can convert it to EVO 3 specs (double synchros etc) whos the best??
