Is this just a matter of adjusting the threaded rod between the clutch pedal and master cylinder? The DIY I found
here suggests moving the release point closer to the floor... I just took the FR-S for a quick spin and it felt like I was blocked out of 2nd on a poorly rev-matched (low RPM so you wouldn't think it would matter...) down shift and upshifting into 2nd was generally notchy as well (particularly relative to 3rd and 4th). If anything, I would prefer the release point being further from the floor to ensure the clutch isn't dragging. I'm sensitive to this stuff given all the synchros I've trashed drag racing my VR-4, haha.
I remember reading about synchro issues and replacing the factory transmission fluid. Was a consensus reached on the best fluid to use?
