on the way to work i tried it and it works that way! im going to adjust my cable today later on at work

the problem sounds like a cable or engine mount issue. if the engine is sagging or out of place 5th gear will be hard becuase of the way the linkage is. the se-r's have a solid beam linkage instead of cables. check your shifter mount as well.......fluid change is a damn good idea too. i recommend redline light weight shock proof. or motul gear 300.
i just did a trans flush on it and i have the new inserts laying in my garage i will install then and see if that will help
