I had 2nd and 5th grind when I got the car too, sometimes I couldn't even shift into 2nd in the morning. If you look into other Subaru forums some STI have this problem too. Since our shift linkage is very similar to STI, it is not a surprise that we have similar issue.

For me all I did was change the fluid to motul & the grind pretty much disappears. Thou it's coming back slowly after 20k mile... So I'm probably gonna change the fluid again.
