Thank you, I was staring at the slave cylinder to the clutch fork scratching my head. Engage it more is what I gather you're referring too, so tightening it up just a little more. My engagement is already tighter than I'd prefer. I hit the TOB with only about 1/8" free travel to spare on the clutch pedal as it is. And the shop checked it the other day when I had my bushings and motor mounts put in.

Different topic with the bushings, but it did clean up this shifting issue a little bit. It's less frequent now, but I'm also more aware and putting my new TOB through more than my normal driving style of late.

This issue dead stop still, in neutral, clutch out sitting at a light. Light green, press in clutch, won't engage. If I'm moving, at all, it engages fine. I didn't suddenly wear out 1,2 syncros. I got a SC, enjoyed the power, ~4000miles now, and now I have this issue. I don't hit second much in my dedicated twisty drives that now would be a problem versus pre SC thrashing. But as stated, there is a lot of movement in the system with the added power and torque.
