Car doesn't want to shift into any gear when stopped
 
I'm new to this platform and this is the first problem I have run into. My car won't shift into any gear when it is standing still and on, but if I turn the car off it will shift into any gear with ease. To get the car to move I have to shut the car off put it into first then start it and it will run through the gears. Then it has the same problem when I come to a stop again. When I'm trying to shift into first gear with the clutch fully depressed the car drops slightly in rpm but doesn't move.
Thanks,
Matt

Have you tried to let go of the brake slightly to let the car move a bit so that it gives the internals some slack and enables you to shift into 1st? Sometimes I do d that when it's difficult to shift into 1st when stopped, that has helped.

are you pushing the clutch all the way to the floor? sounds like the clutch isn't fully disengaging.

The car is warm and the clutch is all the way to the floor. I filled the clutch reservoir and bled the system with no results. Tomorrow I'm going to check and make sure that the trans is full.

Clutch not releasing completely, if it's bled properly, confirm the pedal linkage is working correctly, check for a fluid leak at the master cylinder rod under the dash, if everything checks out your issue will be in the bell housing, either a worn clutch, bad slave or damaged fork.

Stock clutch? Flywheel?
Has the TOB been changed?

+1 sounds like a clutch issue

Have you tried slowly coming off the clutch pedal while trying to get into gear? Sometimes as I have to let it out a bit to get it to engage. It mostly happens to me when going into reverse, but I have felt it a few other times too.

If this is happening every time it is not a user error issue, some part of the system is not working correctly. Either you have a bad seal in the master or slave cylinder and fluid is getting past and therefore the clutch fork is not fully moving, or the clutch fork is bent, or there is air in the system unlikely since you said you bled it) or there is a pressure plate issue (worn spring diaphragm, bent clutch fork, etc). I would chase master/slave faults first.

Any bets on another ACT clutch? Anyone?

Hello BRZBoosted and welcome to our forum - :clap:

Have you tried adjusting the clutch?

This is why I asked if stock. The car is boosted so probably a safe bet the clutch is changed.
Everybody is trying to diagnose something when we don't even know what parts are in there.

After the threads that have been popping up the past few weeks, we almost need a sticky on "how to ask a question."
