you mean triple cone synros ? First and second gear usually get pounded pretty hard and the USDM synros are pretty low in quality based on comparison. My cousin' s rsx type S had his synros replaced three times under warranty before Acura called it "user abuse". Type R can take alot more punishment under heavy and heavier driving behavior than the rsx's syncros.
