question is ..
new synchro or 2nd hand box?
and what should i expect regarding cost?

I would go for a 2nd hand box probably pick one up 2nd hand for 200-300 quid and I would expect it to cost about 200 quid labour. Shouldnt be a bad job for a qualified mechanic think the book time is 6 hours.

this may be worth a go... when I first bought my mr2 the car would crunch going into third sometimes (2nd>3rd).
I figured the clutch pedal wasnt being pushed down far enough, so I removed my floor mat and problem was gone
