It's hard to rewire your brain. The proper technique is clutch in all the way, move into neutral then push the gear lever into gear allowing the transmission to swallow the shifter into the gate.

It has to be 1 2 3, but you can do it quickly.

P.S. when I get into my friends' AP2's I can immediately discern the interference of the CDV especially when at WOT, time attack mode lol.

Clutch delay valve removal, lighweight flywheel. Best mods on an S2000 by far. If you dont have these 2 checked off the list you shouldnt be driving an S2k.
