Default trannsmission problem...hard to get in and out of reverse

hey guys i just recently put in a CC stage 2 clutch and put new honda MTF fluid in it and the car drives fine but ever since i did the clutch the tranny doesnt feel as smooth shifting wise. its not notchy while driving it goes into gear just fine but also ive had extreme trouble putting it into reverse and if it goes in reverse its really hard to get out. I have a bad driver side mount i got some hasports on the way. I was thinking about switching to gm synchromesh or the penzoil equivelent. but why is reverse such a B*&^to find and get in?? b16a2 btw

dont be offended by this but..

CC clutches are all doodoo..seriously. there are so many people complaining about them its not funny.
keep the honda MTF in.

keep in mind if the clutch is new it needs worked in also. Reverse is a dif story.

the clutch feels pretty good imo. grabs like a mother when shifting and shifting gears is fine like i said. im saying i notice a difference in the way it shifts even stopped. could too much fluid or too little case it. i filled it up and let it drain out the fill whole till it stopped.

no fluid wouldnt do that to it. sounds like sumthing mechanical.
the most popular problem with swaping this stuff around is that your clutch geometry is off or your clutch fork is goofed up.
