    Transmission install, but shift very rough

    This tranny is a h22, recently purchase from a seller, but just got it install and it it shift very rough(hard) into 5th gear without starting the car and after starting the car. You can't hear the gear engauge or feel it. First thru fourth feels normal though? Is it a result of a bad tranny? I used 10-30 motor oil for the transmission fluid, could that affect it? I also haven't had the chance to drive it yet as I'm still doing the timing belt. Any input on this.

    yes the fluid does have some kind of effect on it. perhaps its the synchros are seriously worn out aswell. 5thgear is notorious on the h22's
