2013 LS, barely 6k miles on it, bought brand new and never tracked. I have had issues with high rpm lockouts mainly, but occasional grinding, too, at high rpm (usually going into 4th). In chronological order of installation, here is the list of things I have done to resolve the issues:
1) MGW shifter (bought back in 2013 so not the newest spec)
2) removed clutch assist spring
3) Whiteline transmission bushing
4) Blowfish bracket
5) Spec Stage 1 clutch and alloy flywheel
I almost feel like the issues are even more pronounced now than when new, like something is misaligned somewhere because even with the car off, trying to do a fast 2-3 shift is not as easy as I think it should be.
What have I done wrong? I know that people are going to say "Take it to the dealer" and I may do that, but if someone has an idea that maybe I did something wrong, please let me know. I am almost tempted to take the MGW, WL bushing, and BR bracket off to see what difference it might make.
Thank you in advance.
