Can't get into Gear

[sleepydsm]

1992 tsi awd 5 spd 6/4

I can't get my car into 5th gear. The tranny will physically go into fifth, but with a lot of effort. When using the shift lever, it won't go in. I just put in a short throw shifter, symbroski bushings, shifter cable bearings, shep stage 3. I also adjusted the shifter cables tonight in hopes of helping the situation. But the cables were never changed from before the car was modded, so why now would I have difficulty?
