Problem with the tranny. I had it happen to me except in second gear. Was the main shaft bearing or something like that. Either way.. expensive to fix.

A different chasis may bring different results. Check the linkage and if that checks out fine you may have worn parts in your transmission that have seen better days! Check the easy stuff first...as fluid may cause an issue

I would try adding some MTF. I had this problem on my 91 hatch that I just picked up. Added some tranny fluid, and the tranny works great now.
