I'm having a real problem with grinding gear and mis-shifting from 1st to 2nd (only when shifting at redline) Does the B&M help in this area?? or is there a problem with my tranny? This really takes the enjoyment out of driving the car
On a side note I installed the Nismo shift knob which is lighter then stock, I'm sure this isn't helping, so I just ordered a TWM counterweighted shift knob, hoping this will help get it in gear better. Trying to decide if a short shifter will help or make it worse I've had short shifters before in 2 of my mustangs and in my GTI, and they all seam to work pretty good.

As far as my experience with MT cars, let put it this way, I've never owned an Auto. In the last 16 years I've had 9 cars, Z being the 10th, all MT cars. The 1st to 2nd shift in this car really sucks
