haha I saw a blue s2000 couple hours ago from nsw pulling out of maccas on ballarat to take it for a spin, the guy crunched his second gear and when he came back to park he rode the clutch soooo bad. must be very new to manual.

psychologist lol, im thinking he wants to boast that he got it so cheap, with ok kms on it. Or he ran into this thread and thought to ask.
a lot of AP1s have trouble with 2nd gear if the GB isnt warm and if the driver is not good with the clutch in.
take down the number plate if u see it again so we can warn other potential buyers
Not really, had two a 99 and 01. 99 crunched 1st to 2nd when it felt like it, warm or not (under heavy load only). Other one didn't.

I find mine (03) crunches 1st > 2nd when cold as well sometimes. Noticed an improvement, though not totally cured, after changing fluids last service.
i was going to link that TSB.
but i have a 00 and it has the 2nd gear crunch when im not expecting it and am not fully conscious of what my clutch foot is doing in regards to how activated the clutch is.
but generally it does not happen when i have been using the other gears and been on the road mroe than 10mins, if the car is idling though and all things look good ie engine temp, i will still experience the crunch because im not expecting it and the GB is actually cool still.
all this is basically only at high RPMs though and u want to be Doridori and do quick shift then it rejects. so let it warm up all you s2gays.
