hey eggboy.. are you sure your completely still when putting it into reverse? because the ep3 wont let you put it into reverse if your car is moving forward or backwards. so that may be the problem.

Holy crap, I just thought I was driving like an idiot. I never ground my EM1, then I bought this and from 1st to 2nd I had to train myself to pace my shift...push clutch, slide out of first, pause for engine to rev down...slide into second, pause for synchro spin-down...release clutch.
I can still get a nice wheel chirp but, christ...it feels like I put ten seconds of my life on hold just to change up one gear. Granted I probably won't need the fast shift that often but having to concentrate on an upshift should be the last of my concerns. Does it get better with age? I know trannies take time to get broken in and loosen up a little.
I guess my EM1 babied me with it's broken-in, flawless, half-pedal lightning shifts. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to cry about one more reason I miss my ebp. :'(

Within the first 2k I had a grind from second to third at high RPM's. Synchro problems... Of course it was fixed under warranty.

sometimes its hard to down shift and upshift into fourth gear. sometimes it grinds in second gear. It feels as if my synchros are bad.:(

lotsa bad trannies.
Mines pretty notchy. it took a while to get used to it but now I don't grind anymore.
I will agree its not a normal honda tranny though.
