mine grinds going into 3rd..but if i shift slow it wont...

sounds like the syncro gear in 2nd is out or on its way out..very common for T5's...the syncro gear is like a plastic or rubber peice that stops the gear from spinning while you put it in gear..if it no good the gear spins and when you put it in gear it grinds...thats what iv heard anyway...mabe some one can back this up or correct me if im wrong
