Hi Derek
You seem to have mainly resolved your problems using the Nexus 8.
I have had a Subway 8 for about 15 months over 1500 miles and have had no problems shifting gears. I have found though as a previous poster has suggested that if I keep pressure on the shifter after changing gear there is sometimes enough pull on the cable to slightly disengage the gear. Perhaps you were doing something similar. As long as the alignment is correct in 4th gear then all the other gears come sweet, so another thought is that maybe your shifter is slightly out in 5th gear and needs replacing.
The SG-8R25 is an excellent hub and I have found it to change well under load and there is certainly no need to back pedal.
