Shifting Into First Not Possible...

Dear AK370Z, Have you ever down-shifted into first yourself? Could you do it? Did you use a lot of force to shift?

If you are going to shift into 1st you better have SRM on. Otherwise why would you want to? especially from 3k???

yes I did. Yes I can do it but I prefer NOT to do it because it's kinda harsh going into 1st. It does require quite some push to do it. Coming from 350Z, I know how sensitive Nissan Transmissions are (usually synchros ). I just don't want to visit the dealer for any transmission problem(s) .
