Default Del sol si shiftlinkage.. No reverse?

Hey I just got a del sol vtec shiftlinkage from some one on here and I installed it on my del sol w b16a swap, all stock. The linkage fit in right perfectly. The problem I can't figure out is why it won't move in reverse? I put in reverse or so it seems, it moves forward. I'm trying to shift in reverse. Could the linkage be wrong in length or anyhow?

Was your car working with reverse prior to the installation of this new shift linkage?

If you're able to shift into all 5 gears except reverse, the tranny might be messed up with the reverse gearing.

SI shift linkage is not VTEC shift linkage. just so you know.

if you bought SI its for a d16.

but as asked before did it work prior to the install?

I think he did get the B16/DOHC VTEC shift linkage. I'm still leaning towards a bad transmission.
