On the OEM FG unit there's an offset chamber the fluid travels through to get your foot motion to transfer to the clutch. This chamber actually causes the fluid to slow, resulting in a clutch that does not disengage or engage fast enough. Which leads to slower shifts and in some cases transmission grinds. It's not your fault!
The simple solution is to upgrade to an EM1 civic master cylinder, replacing the OEM FG unit – bundled with a braided stainless line Voila! Problem solved. The new master cylinder also has steel internals while the OEM unit has plastic internals.
