sometimes they just have being sitting too long, little rusty inside. Start the car and try to jam it into gear REALLY REALLY hard. It will eventually work.

This is how I got two of my JDM tranny to work, after they have being removed from the original car for over a year.

If that still dont work, may be you have a very poor condition transimission, where the shifter select, all bearings, are all either broken or rusted, sized. Might want to just take it to a transmission specialist and have it looked at.

What gear is the shifter stuck in? Did you remove the tail housing of the trans where the shifter mounts? If so there is a certain way to reinstall it or else it wont go into gear.
