Default Fluids Question

I have an 02' Z06 with 48k miles. I want to change out my fluids in the clutch and transmission this week. I have a Textralia oz700 clutch and a B&M Precision Sport Shifter in the car. I have noticed that under hard acceleration in 2nd gear that it almost is impossible to hit 3rd gear quickly. It seems that if i am driving a little bit spiritedly that it will go right in every time, but when i take it up to around 6,000 or so it gives me a fit. I am not sure if the fluids have ever been replaced so I am going to buy new fluids this week and see if this can remedy my little fits. Any tips on what to buy and what you have had previous experiences with would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Justin
