if you arent on honda MTF already. do it now!

if that doesnt help, run GM Synchromesh.

any idea on how many miles the gearbox has done?

they tend to go nasty around the 100k - 110k

well give the car a service inc. gearbox oil and see how it goes. if its still doing you might wanna get it rebuilt or buy a new box.
