I am glad I read this thread. This FRS is also my first manual car. I only tried driving stick couple times in a parking lot before. I totally agree that from 1-2 gear is difficult to get a grip on. I found that if I shift earlier (2500 rmp than 3K) it seems more smoother. I only have this car for 3 days, but I notice myself is getting better each day. From stalling a lot to no stall at all. Practice makes perfect!
