How to eliminate shifter wobble while in gear?
how can you get rid of that annoying wobble that you can do while in gear? will Poly inserts get rid of this?

it should help if not cure it...
also is it a stock motor and tranny...if it is, it should help it out...
if its a swap check to see if there is a pin that connects the shifter to the tranny or if there is a bolt....

Re: How to eliminate shifter wobble while in gear? (screech)
i'll ask how much a new one is at work... (work at a dealership, and get 10% over cost, lucky me 
) but ill prolly get a poly. And yes, i swapped in a B16a2, so i have a pin (that was quite the pain in the *** to take out).
how much are the poly inserts?

I'd say get a poly bushing shifter kit. I did that as well as put in a short shifter and my play is nominal now. It made a big difference, it used to be bad.

also, check to make sure there is no freeplay at the connection of the shift rod to the transmission knuckle linkage. there is a roll pin at this site that bonds the rod to the transmission side linkage knuckle. if this connection is not 100% solid snug, you will have sloppy shifting and excessive play while in gear.

Yeah no kidding. You MUST use the proper drift pin and c-clip FROM HONDA. A nut and bolt WILL NOT WORK. I had to wait a few days on this part... The shifting got REALLY sloppy and I was worried that the shift rod was going to fall out of the transmission knuckle while I was going 100 miles per hour, catch the ground and wedge, ram the shift rod and shifter assembly up through the car, and impale me.
