so i recently got my ka24de and 5 spd installed into my 95 zenki. I originally put lucas 80w90 in it and i never even moved the car or shifted it because i was waiting on my driveshaft from DSS. I drained it out and refilled with redline mt90.
Here is my problemo... When i first drive it in the morning it grinds going into second, until i drive about 3 miles. 3rd will grind regardless above 6k rpms shifting from 2nd to 3rd. 4th always feels notchy.
As of yesterday i drove the car almost 40 miles at around 60mph so i am guessing my trans was nice and warm and hotter than it had ever been since my swap and at that time all my notchy and grinding went away.
So what i am wondering is why does my transmission have to be driven for so damn long before it shifts properly?? any ideas??
