Possible gearbox synchro problem. Fix or Replace?

I think my mate might have busted my 5th gear synchro by changing gear too fast.

Every time i change into 5th above about 2000rpm, the gears crunch. Below 2000rpm seems fine though.

I was curious, does anyone know how much it could be to get the gearsets replaced? Most sites i have seen only off 1-4th gearsets, not 5th.

The other option (depending on price) would to try get an STI 6 speed installed. Anyone done this and/or know what is involved?

I drive an MY03 Peanut.
