Grinding third...and not the good kind

My car was driving fine (03 6 speed coupe) and just tonight it started grinding going into third gear. The only way I can get it into 3rd is go shift very slowly... So is it my clutch or my transmission? It is the only gear that grinds.
Thanks

I have the same issue and the only way to fix it is to replace the tranny with a newer one.
