As far as I know, everyone with a T-5 has this problem, myself included. Its actually kind of annoying to cuz it makes u look like u dont know how to drive stick, especially in public places where it attracts attention. Anyhow, everyone that I've talked to said its because of the fact that reverse doesnt have a synchro. I'm guessing that these trannys must not line up good inside with age cuz mine grinds alot more than it used to. Sometimes it can be minimized if you try shifting into 3rd, then 2nd, and then trying to hit reverse. If anyone else has any info to offer, I'd liove to hear it.

I had the same problem on my first car, an 87 300zx turbo, it always grinded a bit and sometimes wouldnt go into gear and then, i sit there reved the engine and everyone just looks at you cause your not moving. But the same trick applies i found when i put it in first then into reverse it didnt grind
