When I first start the car up the trans is at its worst. It feels as if it had a clutch and it is riding it. In the morning it also doesn't want to shift out of 1st for a while. After driving around for a little bit (give or take 5-10 miles) the issue clears up some but not all the way. I thought that it might be the TC or maybe it needs to be shimmed. Anybody have any ideas. I plan to do a swap to 5spd but I don't have all the parts yet.

I would say hold out until the 5 speed but if your willing to try something..

Whens the last time you flushed the old fluid out and put new transmission fluid in the system?
