My Mkiv is a TT, so I have no idea about your 5spd. On the 6spd, the input shaft bearing generally doesn't go bad but I do know of one case where it did need to be replaced.

Snap rings are consumables - never reuse them. (see the TSRM for details)

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
