There are many problems with these transmissions, The inputshaft bearing may be starting to wobble throwing the whole gear set out of wack, At minimum the reverse/5th gear and slider with syncro, hub and bearings will need replaced, If you are in that far you may as well rebuild it or start over.
There is no easy button for this one.

Damn, my 4th and 5th gear is gone...Got Excedy Single Plate clutch 5,000 miles ago, but track the car often. Don't know if its a clutch issue or a synchro issue. Oddly, both 4th and 5th gear gave way at the same time.
Grinds when I upshift at high RPM (quickly)
Does not grind when I downshift from 5th to 4th, I do heel and toe rev-match
Does not grind when I upshift slowly and sort of pause in neutral to let the revs go down

My car drives perfectly normal and shifts to 5th just fine, but if I'm over 75mph going from 4th to 5th it grinds. I don't care what anyone says, it may be common, but not normal for any tranny to grind. I will be contacted on Wed. by the service manager and hopefully they will at least try to replace the 5th gear and synchro.
No its not mostly the drivers. This is my 2nd EVO. Understand that you have a 6 speed MR. This is obviously a 5 speed issue.
