Welcome to FTE!

Someone will probably be along to answer your question on the M5OD-R1 tranny which I assume the '93 has. I have only passing knowledge of it myself.

I have read before that over time the slave cylinder and/or throwout bearing can fail to release the clutch completely, which can make shifting into 1st and reverse difficult on these trannies.
