    i think a bit more information is required. How many miles on the car? Does it make any noises? What do you mean when you say all the others go through fine and that one doesnt? And Mods done to the car? Under what conditions does the car have trouble (normal driving, WOT, etc.) With a bit more info we will be able to give you a little more direction.

      based on the very limited info provided I would guess 5th gear syncros are shot.

        Will it go into 5th when the engine is not running? If not, you have a linkage problem internal in the transmission. If it will when not running but won't when running it's probably a synchro problem.
