A good transmission fluid like Castrol Synchromesh will truly do wonders for the gearbox. It could also just be that your transmission is just worn out, but comparing to other cars isn't the right way to figure yours is bad. My subaru trans feels like a slushbox compared to my old Celicas. I miss the notchy feeling.

I test drove an 89 civic with a 5 speed... it was "smooth" sure, but it felt like I was shifting spagetthi.... I'll try to swap the fluid and check those cables... see what happens
