Default Transmission issue

I wondering if any one has ever had this issue. Recently i ve been having trouble shifting into gears below 4K rpms. i have an ACT Street Cluth but stock flywheel. The second thing is something if feels like its in gear but it grinds. The fluids are cool and the clutch only 25k miles on it.
i guess my question is what are the symptoms of the flywheels going bad, or is the shift lynkage or the slave cylnder??
i appreciate any suggestions.

sounds like the synchros to me which gear does it grind when you try to put it in and does it throw it back out after putting it in gear?

it wont throw it out of gear, and it just about every gear that it shift really rough below 4K rpm. yesterday when i was crusing at low rpm, if u put in the clutch while still in gear and it makes a somewhat of a snapping sound when it disengages i suppose.

i get that too. when i shift into a gear at a low speed it goes in but sounds like a quick grind/loud snap. when your tranny is warm does it still do this cause that usually only happens to me in the morning.

nope its been 4 days an still does it cold or warm, so im thinking is the slave cylinder. although if im down shifting it feels number even at lower RPM. im hoping is nothing else, apparently taking and s2000 transmission off cost a lot of money.
i just wish there was more information on the symptoms of what a master cylinder or slave cylinder does when there going bad. getting annoyed with the S.
