(1) you're in the wrong forum, as this is for the FRS/86, not the BRZ, but
(2) forget point (1), it actually doesn't matter what version of the car you have; the transmission is the same.
But yes, 2nd can be clunky when cold. Try delaying your 1>2 shift a little when it's cold to let the synchro do its work. I don't mean shift at higher RPM; I mean let the rpms hover for a moment before you shift 1>2.
You could also swap your fluid to something like motul gear 300 75w90; lots of people claim that helps.
Either way, it will improve with time.
