Ever since I got a heavy clutch and didn't replace the hydrolics mine wont shift into gear above 5.5k or so. It's as if there is something blocking the way, I mainly notice it from 1st-2nd and 2nd-3rd shifts. Now my syncros are toast. Jaberwaki had a great write up above(https://ls1tech.com/forums/manual-transmission/156608-clutch-prob-post.html), but it named tons of possibilties, but no way of deciding what to change first, any ideas?

I thought it was clutch related too, I just got my car back today with a spec stage 3, still does it. I guess I'll try bleeding the brakes, then the pedal travel length, then buy a master.. peace.

you where right to look at your hydrolics as the source of your woes....
the prob is caused from swaping a soft stocker clutch for a hard one... it takes more pressure(more fluid) to push it... you will only have probs in wot high rpms ...
3 types of fixes...
1. the drill mod.. this one is a hit or miss but has been known to fix the prob in several cars..(mine is one) it is also the cheapest..(check out www.installuniversity.com for the write up on how)
2. slave shim.... when you got your clutch package it should have come with one..
it is the hardest one to do as it requires removing your slave in order to shim it.. (ask spec about it they might have just forgot to send it)
3. adjustable master ... easy to instal but you have to by one... mcloed makes a good one
hope this helps

You bumped a 10 year old thread lol. It's very hard to understand your post. Please Make a new thread and with detail describe the problem. 4th gear not working doesn't tell anyone anything. It could be blocking you out,grinding or hell even jerking you off when you try it.... Detailssss
