Default Stick shift sticking?

ok, here's basicly what happens, start driving in 1st of course, accel to 2nd and then shift in to 3rd, but instead of the normal feeling I get it feels like the stick has entered some domain where it shouldn't be, my gears still engage with the clutch but the stick is stiff and feels like it's able to go further forward than it should be. The only way to get it to act normal again is to slam it hard in to 4th and it'll act normal again.

I brought the car home and put it in the air. Pushed the clutch in and run through all the gears including reverse and it acts normal, so I put it in neutral and release the clutch, I can hear the clutch engage with the engine and it spins the portion attatched to the clutch, I disengage the clutch and I go straight to 5th and the stick sinks forward and sticks like it did before, I slam it in to 4th and it stops sticking.

There's only one thing I can think of that's causing this, but I want reassurance that nothing else could possibly cause this problem.

2000 Accord w/ 95 JDM H22A and 99 USDM 5 spd transmission.

if it is what I think it is, please IM me if you have a JDM tranmission for an H22A

It's with the synchros for not shifting into reverse

1-5 has synchros and R does not, you should prime it before going into it by going in and out of 4th

( learned that the other week)

2nd the GM synchromesh fluid....also, check the linkage, make sure nothing is binding, but i doubt thats your problem since it doesnt happen all the time, just under certain conditions.
