        Make sure clutch is fully disengaging, change to a good fluid. That is about all you can do, less than getting tranny rebuilt.

          ALWAYS depress the clutch when shifting! Typical that someone doesnt know how to shift properly, about half of manual drivers cant drive one for shit. Powershifting manuals is only to be done with one that is desgned for it, i.e. a clutchless manual, dogbox, Liberty, Lenco, etc. If you do it in a DSM, you will fail at life and deserve the repair bills

            um, ok so ? dumb ass, smart ass, smart ass, smart ass, smart ass, and know it all. and yet, no one has offered up any real solutions or diagnosis. imagine that! man, you guys are sooooo knowledgeable. and any vehicle can be power shifted! any! evry vehicle i drive that has a clutch, i drive that way. you make no sense. not using the clutch increases your life span of the clutch. i shouldve known better than to ask for advise here.

              wtf you talking about

              jeremy just said make sure the clutch fully disengages the flywheel when the pedal is fully depressed

              sounds like it is dragging some, ....

              I highly doubt it is an actual tranny problem, if it were syncros it would shift for shit while at speed ... you say it shifts fine then..... well that is what i got out of it, you weren't too elaborate on a description

                Then your a fuckin retard, just like i said. If you have ever been inside a manual trans and saw the synchros you would not powershift it. Dumbfuck

                  Maybe

                  evry vehicle i drive that has a clutch, i drive that way.
                  Your vehicles, you drive how you want

                  you make no sense. not using the clutch increases your life span of the clutch.
                  And decreases the life of the trans

                  Sad, but true. Some people go on their whole life thinking how you do, the others learn from their mistakes or others mistakes.

                      Agreed.... Your getting replies from people who have dealt w/ DSM's for 10 years, the comments are not smart ass or BS, its just the true facts of the matter.

                            The tech is the slave cyl, master cyl, synchros or trans are more then likely shot and need replacing. Its the DSM game start checking and replacing until its fixed.

                              Let's see.....Grr is one of the more knowledgable people on this site. 91nbtsi was the first DSM in town in the 10's. SLS (psi2hi) has built more DSM's that go fast than ANYONE in the area (9 second car fast enough for you???). Everyone knows that DSM tranny's are the weak point in their setup and placing any unneeded strain on them (clutchless shifting for example) is going to only cause problems.

                              No bullying, no bullshit, just straight up answers. Sorry if they weren't what you wanted to hear, but they are the truth.

                                you are the jackass that wasn't even smart enough to know the help when it was given to you.

                                      actually the make sure the pedal was fully depressed was very DSM specific advice because when an aftermarket clutch is installed in a DSM, alot of the time you need a longer clutch slave cylinder rod, and if you dont have one, the car would act exactly like you said your friends car was.... So yea, we were trying to help...

                                        I told you to make sure the clutch was disengaging fully; meaning the actual clutch, not the clutch pedal.

                                        PSI2HI gave you possible causes of the clutch not disengaging, same difference.

                                        Changing to a good fluid is important in these transmissions. GM synchromesh is a decent fluid that is commonly used to help the synchros out a bit.

                                        But, apparently I am just a know it all and wasn't trying to help you out.

                                          I've had more 2G DSM experience than I wish. 2Gs don't have issues w/ the clutch not fully disengaging like the 1Gs did. They all use cables from the shifter to the trans, which is gay and sloppy. Like Nate said, switch to GM syncromesh, or Penzoil syncromesh, which is the same stuff, but cheaper. This should all be done and can all be found on the DSM VFAQ site: B&M short shifter, metal shifter plate bushings, Greddy counterweight shift knob, SS braided clutch fluid line and get rid of the fluid collection unit w/ that, remove the clutch fluid restricter inside of the slave cylinder. Of course if your slave or master cylinder are leaking, replace them. Make sure that there isn't a floor mat or something getting underneath the clutch pedal. When all this is done, it still won't shift that good because its a Mitsubishi transmission. Compared to other cars, their trannies are garbage, this has been proven time and time again. Like I said before, spend the money with Shep or TRE, thats your best bet.
