6 Speed will not go into gear on cold start.

I swapped in a 01+ 6 speed in my NA last month.
When the engine is warm (I assume the transmission is warm as well) I can get into gear very easily.
However, since the weather has cooled off it's really hard to get into gear (especially reverse) after a cold start.
If I do manage to get it in gear after waiting for it to warm up, it starts acting normal, but i can not get the car to move after cold start and have to wait till it will let me select 1st 2nd or reverse. Usually it's less of wait to get it in the forward gears so these days I started back parking the car.
I believe my hydraulics are fine because when the car is warm I can get into any gear easily. Fluid flushed this spring and new slave cylinder put it as well at that time. (I put in redline mt90 when I swapped the transmission in last month)
I have FM level2 clutch kit for what its worth. (it engages/disengages very close to floor)
