i got a auto integra 96 and im converting to manual i have a cable transmission aand the auto on the car is hydro wat parts do i need to install it? do i need to change anything on the motor or anywhere else.is there a special shift linkage i must get just for a cable transmission or a clutch pedal

 

I think you'll find it kinda hard to install a Cable tranny in a 96 integra. Theres just somethin about it that makes it kinda...lets say impossible? I think it has to do with the fact that a 96 is a Hydro and your tryin to put in a Cable Tranny...

Actually, it's not impossible. You can buy an aftermarket kit that makes hydro-cable tranny conversion kits. To the OP, I forgot the company that makes it, but if you keep searchin, you'll find it here on H-T...

 

yeah when my buddy bought his eg hatch it had a cable transmission in it. i forgot how it worked but he needed up taking it out and putting a hydro one in

 

Nice didn't know that, ill remember that

 

It doesn't have to be that hard just find a Da or prelude w/ a clutch cable and run it independently of everything all you have to do is drill a 1/2 inch hole ih the fire wall to run it through, it also kind of works as a weight reduct you can avoid adding all of the little hydro components.

 

so it would be better for a weight diffrence because i got the tranny for under 100 bucks and its in good condition so i really dont wan to buy a hydro tranny if i dont have too

 

no you don't have to do hydro, hyrdo is better but there is nothing wrong with cable

 

0ook wat do i hav to diffrent to my car to make it cable work properly

 

get the 5spd pedel stup and the clutch cable from a da should work and the get a 5spd computer and shift likages and a dremel for a little cutting.
Search on here and you could probably find a better list then mine.

 

yea ive seen this done to a eg civic back home....imo dont think its worth doing that...converting from hydro to cable

 

im only doing it to go manual cause imm running on automatic and auto realli sucks

 

My friend has cable on his ls and i have hydro on mine and there really isn't that much a=of a difference imo

 

ok that mean ima have to change the speedometer to manual??? does the pedals have to to be from a DA or can they be from a DC

 

A dc's should be fine, i think you might have to get the manual one but i'm not 100% on that

 

you can use the auto cluster for the conversion....but as far as the pedals you might have to use da ones.....

 

ok ya i kinda figured that i got a manual comp and i got the cable transmission but i kant find a shift linkage for a cable tranny. if i get de pedalls then what would i hav to do? i got the clutch cable..is there anything else im missing??

 

what you need: manual pedals, gauge cluster, ecu, manual starter, half shaft, clutch, flywheel, pressure plate and flywheel bolts (Do not use auto ones!) clutch reseviour(sp?) and lines. shift linkage, shifter and boot, manual tranny mounts.

and very important!!!!

when facing your engine bay. the left top mount to the tranny, the part thats actually part of the car the the mount bolts up to needs to also be replaced! on the autos they go up at an angle. manual is flat. you can cut and put in a new or OR there is a converted one you can buy. idk who or what its called but if you search you can find it. its like 130 bucks.

im doing this conversion rightnow. its such a pain in the *** but it will be worth it!

good luck

 

this is the mount...

but this is only for hydro tranny!!!!!

so i guess its different for cable. idk if not then they just assume you have a hydro bec you have a 94 and up. i dont see why its any different.

 

ya thank you for the list but i have a cable transmission im puttin in to be manaul but i think its diffrent

 

well do some research and find out. but i know you will need all that stuff. its taken me so long bec there were more parts than i thought so i had to wait to get each part. im was pissed. but mine should be done by tmw hopefully. good luck with yours.
cheers

 

damn it seems like alot of work and parts that you need wat was ur estimate of how much u spent on everythgn if u dnt mind saying

 

i predicted about 1000 in parts with the tranny costing me 500. so 1500. but i was so lucky that most of my friends have been in the scene for so long that i got all my parts from them. some of them for free. and alot for cheep. i still havent hit 1000 and thats with the tranny. so im lucky. try to find stuff as cheap as possible. alot of things you can get from older cars. like DA's. some are the same so you can find them cheaper. idk about my exact cost. bec i didnt keep tract but so far i think about 800.

 

i got a cable transmission for under 100 because i got it on a b218 motor but the motor head gaskett is blown and the mount need to be rethreaded i think so i might try to fix that motor and do swap.. with cable do i need all those exact parts?

 

im sure you do. but im not 100% sure. im doing a hydro so idk. if the tranny looks and bolts up the same then i would say yes. so find out. and search a bit.
