I've tried double clutching, but I still feel the resistance going into 4th. I also rev match and the ride itself is smooth and not jerky.
The weird thing is that when I shift from 5th to 3rd this doesn't happen.
Does anyone know whats going on? Should I not continue to put the car into a gear if I feel something blocking?

Well, first off, cruising at 2000 rpms in 6th gear, is on the verge of lugging this engine.
Your transmission should easily go from 6th to 4th, however, it might be happier going through 5th on the way to 4th.
I'm going to summon our resident transmission expert @
