Default Clutch problem

Im having a real hard time 1-2 speed shifts. Very rough entry and sometimes wont even let me enter followed with a grind. My question is when your speed shifting and lets say you are shifting at 6-6.5k and ur rev lim is 6600, considering ur still on gas when it passes rev lim does it retract letting you in gear cause of the high rpms? I used to drive a camaro and it had no restrictions, figured since this is an 04 maybe ecu and stuff has harder/higher limitations... (btw car only has 3100 miles... so clutch is not that old) I do race, I do drive hard... I love spinning 1-2 so im doing it alot, im just curious why sometimes it has a rough entry or NO entry at all... (and yes to all the guys that are going to say im not pushing my clutch in all the way, or im letting it off too early... im doing the same thing as when i first bought it and it didnt do that thru the first 1800 miles... just recently kinda started)

It might be your syncros. My syncros wore out at about 10,000 miles and I had the tranny rebuilt. I am picking it up from the tranny shop tomarrow. It cost me a little under 4,000. It will be cheaper to get a new tranny from performance nissan or forged internals, if this is your problem.

What is year is the car and tranny. The 03's and 04's have known problems with bad sychros, and grinding.

04 track model with 3200 miles (im kinda thinking its more of a break in deal, cause ive delt with this before on a different car but not as much power as this..) and i hate to sound like a newb but im learning shift points better considering ive never delt with a rev limiter cause i drove an older car...
