my 3rd gear does this. Every other gear is fine. From time to time it will go into 3rd just fine and doesn't pop out while accelerating.

i think it could be clutch. put another few miles on it and a failing clutch would rear it's ugly head whereas worn syncros wouldn't get much worse.
change mtf while you're at it... magnetic drain plug.

Re: b16 tranny wont go into 5th gear (help!)
Same thing happened to a Toyota truck I used to drive. For me it was the Gear Fork. The gear fork broke right next to the set screw that holds the fork onto the actuating shaft. It allows the gear fork to slide on the actuating shaft. It's a simple break around the set screw that makes it so you cant engage 5th but the set screw still pushes the fork into reverse. The thing is that you can get stuck in reverse if this is the problem. Only way to know is to pull it apart.
