Default Gear box

What up fellas? I don't if you guys had this problem, but if I come to a stop for a light of parking the whip, when I go into first gear, it takes a few times to go into the gear. I have a Neuspeed short shifter on it and the clutch is factory. Someone told me there was a bolt if I lifted the console, but I haven't checked that yet. What do you guys think? It's pissin me off.

No, it's been happening for a little over a month. I've had that checked a couple of times when I was lazy and had my oil changed and they said the color is chill and so is the level.

ya happened to me a couple times too. I think its basically becuz theres no syncro for 1st gear or reverse so the gear sometimes doesnt go in. Easiest way to fix it is just pop it into neutral and rev it a lil, then it should go into gear. :thumbup:

if its like going into 2nd fine but not sliding into first, try double clutching it then slide it into first. if that doesnt work then start pushing it into first and let the clutch out just enough to engage and spin your gears a bit, it will slide in.

like xprincox said since your not moving your gears wont sync and it may be that they are barely off set.
