Default Hard Shifting at High RPM's

i have a JDM H22 and trans in my CL and when i shift at 8k i really have to rip the shifter, like theres pressure holding me back. it only happens at high rpm's. shifting is fine otherwise.
before i get ganged up on about shifting that high it was only when i raced at the track. no point in taking it that high on the street just to show off. i hardly street race eitehr.

-my clutch isnt in the best shape, probaly should get a new one soon
-and my master cylinder (not slave) constantly leaks, but i try and keep the resvoir full at all times.

im really stumped on what it is, and i dont want it to be a problem once the track opens.

first i would replace the master cylinder man, that **** will leave you on the side of the road one day man. that mc will eventually lead to grinding away gears.

constantly filling the mc with brake fluid is not gonna get you far for long and it doesnt stop air from getting into the lines so you need to change it asap. its gonna trash your clutch and eventually your syncros.$$$$$$$$$$$

Another common problem is the pressure plates breaking at the spring housing. You didn't state what kind of clutch was in it so there could be other issues. What fluid is in it and when was it last changed? Both may have an affect on shift quality.
