i was wondering if its OK to use plain unleaded in this instead of premium

and also the car dosent shfit into 4th the guy said its out of sync how hard would this be to fix?
 
Its not good to run cheapo gas in a turbo car, the reason is the risk of detonation with a low octane fuel. Best case scenario, the ECU turns your timing down and you lose a bunch of power. Worst case, you start knocking and break something serious. As in park the car serious.

Speaking of serious, if you have a broken synchro, that is. I say leave it to the pros. Take it to a tranny shop, let em drop the tranny, and diagnose/fix it.
 
do not use regular 85 octane gas or whatever it is. use premium so you prevent detonation in your engine. also with the tranny, some thing is probably broken. i don't know a whole lot about transmissions themselves but if you search you could probable figure it out. or hopefully someone on here can give you more insight. good luck.
