i dont think a manual tranny can slip can it? if it can someone please explain y, i just dont see anyway of it happening. but ya your clutch is gone, 5th gear takes some power to turn so when your floor it its stressing the motor to gain speen, try putting it in 3rd gear going in a 2nd gear speed and floor it, im sure it will do the same thing. just get a 6 puck.

if its popping out of fifth its probably low fluid in the tranny, that is usually the main cause because 5th gear is the smallest of the gears and if the fluid level is too low it cannot reach the fluid and that makes it pop out, so before you go changing trannies and clutches, put some tranny fluid in that bitch and see if that helps
