EVO MR 6 speed Gearbox

Question:  I have an '06 EVO MR w/ 1800 miles.  Since day one shifts from 1-2 and 2-3 seem clunky.  I read in the manual that it's normal for this when the car is cold.  But the only way the car shifts smoothly in my opinion is when I shift above 3500 RPM.  This car has been pampered, never raced or powershifted.  Anyone know if this is typical of the MR tranny?? 

Yes its normal

very normal for all EVO tranny MR or not

Thanks fellas I feel better now
