Crunching in to gears is likely to be the syncro's same things gone in my starlet, best of trying to rule other things out etc like bleeding the clutch system, make sure its got the right amount of oil, linkages and ofcourse check the clutch is okay, head springs have popped out before...

no she not crunching into gear cos its not going into gear when running, its whining like mad when you build up the revs?
