i've changed my clutch one week ago and i've changed my gear-box oil as well and put a full synthetic and from that time i have proplem shifting the gears especialy when the car is cold
 i'm pretty sure that is the oil wich oil do you use in your gear-box?

it should say in your car manual,
it is usually red in colour (so it can be easily identified) It will even say on it gear or transmission oil/lubricantation. it allso comes in for manual or automatic. |

Try to get some Pennzoil Synchromesh. That stuff works wonders in the cold and should eliminate all grinding.

make sure you guys are using gear oil in manual tranny's and not tranny fluid.

both the US ST and GT use 75W-90, GL-4 or GL-5 rating. i'm not sure about the SS-III though.
