Exclamation What is wrong with my car!!!!???

Everytime I go to shift in to third gear (above 6k rpms) it will just sit there and grind and not go in! I have new synchros, and have the clutch pedal adjusted. Anyone know what this could be?! I'm sick of it!!

how long has this been a issue? were the syncros replaced in a attempt to fix the 3rd gear grind? or did it shift fine before and after the syncros were replaced and you just started getting the grind?
