Definitely takes some getting used to over time, but also feel like there's little else I can do to improve my technique. It happens especially when running cold - low-rpm shifts, quick or slow - into second, with the clutch firmly depressed, just seems to clunk into gear, with an occasional grind. But not serious enough for me to take it to Nissan. And it doesn't seem to have gotten any worse in two years. I've just learned to live with it. Because Nissan, right?
