HOw much power/tq are you making?

 

^ this....
and.....

Just because you have barely 14k on the clock doesnt mean that nothing should be wrong.

You said it yourself that you track the car and launch it etc... doing that kind of stuff will cause problems eventually, if your clutch was installed incorrectly then that could be the initial culprit and eventually over time and constantly catching the grinds your talking about gets worse and worse....

What are your mods? If you dont have an aftermarket clutch put it back to stock and bring it in for warranty.

 

I don't really launch the car when at the track and i only have about 320whp. The clutch is stock

 

It doesn't matter how much HP you have, sounds like you have a syncro issue, since the clutch is stock I would immediately put everything back to stock if possible including the tune and bring it to the dealer while you still have a chance being that it is a 2006 and pray that they cover you.

Besides that your just going to waste more time and money trying to fix something that can only be fixed by a rebuild or warranty replacement. Put it back to stock, bring it in to the dealer and let them tell you what it is and go from there...

I had the exact same problem at 16,000 miles. I dealt with it for a long time and finally had a new clutch put in while Shep built the tranny. It is definitely your synchro's bud....sorry. But you'll love a Shep trans! If I were to ever buy another stock EVO that would be my first mods...new clutch and tranny.

 

i dont even want to bother with dealing with a damn dealer. Im just going to deal with it and save for a shep rebuild lol.

 

Yeah, if double clutching it (rev matching it) is allowing you to go into gear easier without grinding than it most certainly is your synchro thats toast just like you said save up for the shep rebuild. I would definitely still try the dealership who knows maybe they will be a mod friendly or just plain out don't give a crap dealer ship and get you back on the road it's worth a shot whats the worse thats going to happen.

 

^+1

 

yeah i will try this weekend

 

same exact problem. its going to be bushwacked soon tho

 

good luck on that man

 

im expecting the worst so i dont get let down lol. i know how these mitsu dealers are and i know this is just going to be a pain. Hopefully they dont care about the aftermarket parts to much.

 

you should get ss clutch lines and shifter base bushings... finally got rid of my 5th grind!
