I recently bought my evo 9 with a few mods already on it. stage 2 clutch, 2 step, manual boost controller, and a few more goodies... first gear is kind of tough to get into and my reverse grinds alot! any idea what could be wrong there?

 

Look up the thread from Jacks transmission that has the video showing how to adjust your clutch pedal properly first. Then go from there.

Sounds like your clutch is dragging. Stage 2 clutch is a pretty generic description. What brand?

 

ok cool.. do you kno his username?

 

not to sure what kind all the work was done by the previous owner..

 

I agree, it does sound like clutch drag, may just simply be a clutch pedal issue.

This is Jack's forum account (you could have searched it but nvm):

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ja...smissions-351/

Read his clutch drag thread and start from there.

 

I did search it i couldnt find anything tho

 

thanks alot guys that post was extremely helpful!!
