Getrag 5spd Syncro Issues

anyone else ahve the getrag 5spd (2.2 or 2.4) it feel's like its somewhat starting to grind going into second gear. the car has 96K miles, and the waranty goes till 100K so i guess i gotta take it in soon. anyone else have this issue at any point in time? car has about 35 passes at the track and i drive it fairly hard.

The dealer probably will and rightfully can blame the STS on your issue, however there definitely was some issues with second gear synchros for a while. There are new upgraded parts out now. Id get a stock shifter and head in ASAP.
