Transmission synchro kit?

02SuperX

Test Drive
I can't seem to find a rebuild kit for my transmission anywhere. my '02 S/C has an FS5R30A 5spd manual trans in it, and the 2nd gear synchro is wearing out big time. Everywhere I look, I see rebuild kits for the FS5R30A, but they all say they are NOT for the supercharged Xterra. Am I missing something here? Did Nissan really put a different transmission into the S/C version? I've heard its because there are a different number of teeth on some of the synchro rings, but I haven't heard anything concrete and I'm really struggling to find a kit! Please help!!

First Fill-Up (of many)
Little bit of a late reply but just to help out anyone with the same question this is the only site I have found that has the X listed as an option. I think we could use the 300zx kit too but I'm not sure. Also the 2003 FSM does show a different synchro setup for the SC and NA X's. I haven't had one apart so can't speak if these kits could interchange.
