I have the same clutch/csc and the same issues, 1st gear can sometimes be extremely difficult to get into, other times its like stock. Do you happen to know what transmission oil you are using?

I have also noticed that trying to shift too fast makes the gear grind, it's not that I am shifting improperly but sometimes I have to almost granny shift it.
our synchros kind of suck, I usually pause from 1st to 2nd as well. Trying to shift as fast as id like usually results in a loud grind and me looking like I can't drive.
