Default Rough Shifting: Is Clutch Bad?

I have 145K on my 96 GSR, and shifting has been fine up until late. Now its hard to get into all the gears, is my clutch going bad or is it something else? When its in gear it drives just fine, its just rough when I shift gears.


TIA

Change the trans fluid. A lot of people I know use GM syncromesh or at least 50% honda gear oil and 50% syncromesh. It's pretty amazing stuff. One of my friends literally ran his trans dry to the point where it wouldn't go into gear and then did the 50 50 mix and it shifted fine until he wrecked it. But with 145 on the clock you can probably just get the honda gear oil and be all good.
