Jerky 2nd gear

Have a question for you guys out there because I'm pretty worried that it's going to be time to spend some money when I shift into second gear most of the time it is pretty Jerky when first getting into gear what do you think it could be

I've been daily driving a manual for 5 years now so I know it's not me it depends on when I shift if I'm getting up to speed a little quick during normal driving I shift at around 2800 to 3k

The tranny cause it also squeals loud when the clutch is engaging in first it's a 6 puck ceramic so I know it's common to hear some noise but the way it sounds there's gotta be something more and if it's this Jerky it must mean the teeth on the gear is shearing right

This is your problem. More finiky of a clutch. Personally I would ditch the 6 puck and just get a GMPP clutch.

I really do appreciate your guys help and input I think I am going to try a different clutch so you think gmpp is the way to go? Would I need a new flywheel or would it be better to get it resurfaced? And what the best tob to get? Sorry for all the questions I just love my car and want to get her running right

GMPP clutch, resurface flywheel but if it's aluminum I'd get a stock one personally and LNF tob

transmission mounts and spherical control arm bushings will help tremendously. driver mod helps more than anything though.
