I've tried JoeyO's subtitles which NEARLY sync retimed from 25 to 23.976. I found a couple others that NEARLY sync retimed from 29.97 to 23.976.
I'm starting to think the old transfers had different cuts on reel changes or something because this new one will not relent.
If we're going to have subs, someone ambitious is going to have to sit down and retime chunks of it until it's right.
And that's just time consuming.
