Title pretty much says it all, whoops

I live up north where the salt is plentiful so usually I don’t get to drive the car for another couple months however a 65 degree day right after .5” of rain to wash the salt off the road was perfect so I took full advantage of it. Pulled it out of storage and started cruising.

Coming home from an event late at night I made the (poor) decision to lay a small patch of rubber, I typically don’t do this much. Let the clutch out in first and it started wheel hopping so I let off and drove away. Now in either first or second it’s like tight, the shifter doesn’t move as easily back and forth as it does in any of the other gears I mean it’s not terrible and maybe I’m just going crazy. I’m kinda wondering if my auto to manual conversion brackets are bent but upon inspection nothing looks bad.

anyone have any experience with this, currently just gonna send it but if someone has experience/advice would be much appreciated.


in summation car do burnout shifter no want to move in 1-2 range

 

Possible that you did some internal damage to the transmission between the 1-2 shifting fork or gears. The FD trans isn't known to handle drop loads super well.

Are all the other gears fine?

 

All other gears are fine and it drives fine no funny noises, it is an fc n/a 5 speed trans.

 

Oh yah, the N/A FC trans is especially weak. I wouldn't be surprised if something went wrong, unfortunately.

 

yeah figured that, not my smoothest move
