Hard to shift EVO MR into reverse

I was talking to some people and I heard that after a twin plate Exedy clutch install on the MR's that they are a little harder to get into reverse.

Has anyone experienced this problem with an aftermarket clutch install on their MR or even stock?

Thanks!

I've never had any problems shifting my MR into reverse. In fact i have more problems shifting into 2nd and 3rd. I'm actually going into the dealership on Saturday for my 5k/5 Month scheduled maintenance. Hopefully they'll be able to check it out.

I've had this trouble with manuals. I'll usually leave the clutch depressed and shift into 1st, then 2nd, then try reverse again. I've had to try to put a vehicle in reverse and, while pressing let the clutch out just slightly and she'd drop in.

That being said, I might re-bleed the slave cylinder. It should have been done when installed but I find this isn't done well all the time it seems.

Good luck!
