I guess I should hop under the car and inspect the shift linkage bushings...they're still stock rubber. As for the too high an rpm downshifting...nah, this is just around town, nothing to prove, A to B driving.

As for Pro Long, I wouldn't mind using it, but the guy at the dealer was saying to use HONDA MTF because it had just the right amount of friction to it. Normal 10W30 yielded too much gear noise, but synthetic 10W30 didn't allow the Syncros to fully engage and do their job...hence Honda MTF was just right. It could have been the right amount of BS from the right person, cuz I bought the fluids, 4.50 a quart, bleh! Oh, my point about Pro Long...wouldn't that be like synthetic and decrease friction within the tranny too much for the syncros...or would it just improve shift feel? I'll check the site out and see what's up.

If I go to a short shifter kit, wouldn't that decrease my leverage...making shifting slightly harder for me? I agree on the Poly-U bushings, but not for the short shifter.

But thank you guys, I appreciate the answers and advice. I was beginning to think no one gave a Shite!

Good weekend to all.
