Most likely the synchros. Common documented problem. Could try changing trans. oil with Redline.
More info.

What RPM is your 1st to 2nd shift at?
I find anything above 6k is going to grind. The problem is the ratio difference between 1st and 2nd.
so if your under 6k you shouldn't be able to grind? is there a "sweet spot" in the shift?
