Its your detents and interlocks then mate. The detents hold are basically runners with spring loaded ball bearings which lock into a little groove ont he shaft and hold it in gear.These get worn and as you can see it pops out.If one is stuck it can also stop it from changing altoghether.

Along with these there are interlocks which are there so that you may only select one gear at a time.THese two can be worn and will result in major gear clashing, crunching and if you do manage to get it into gear the car will stall and lock up the box and cause uber skiddies on bolthj the road and in your pants.

Id be taking the box out and getting it looked over by an expert.

I pulled apart a pulsar box the other day which probably had the same problems with its mechansims and found that a spring had just lost its temper and the detent balls were just not moving around enough.

Hope this helps mate and good luck
