Hmm, I'm liking this theory of using the wrong lube on the input shaft. It explains the hard shifting when cold. It wouldn't have been an intentional mistake or even an error by the tech. It could simply be that when Subaru assembled the engine and transmission, the lube it used in there did not match what Toyota has on its shelf for its cars.

Of course, I'm not likely to remove the transmission to find out - or demand the dealership do it. Well, not yet anyway. If I can find that there is some support for this from BRZ experience versus FRS experience after clutch changes, I might just push it.
