shifting problem
93 sol just put a new tranny in it, it doesnt grind in anygears or nothing like that but when i go to shift i have to push in on clutch and give it like 2 seconds than it will go in gear, i cant shift quick or itll never go in gear, tried adjusting the clutch but didnt really help, maybe i didnt adjust it right, anyone have any idea when i first bought it it shifted fine about 2 yrs ago then tranny went to **** replaced it and now this its athe hydraulic clutch for a d16z6

Re: shifting problem
Cutch is bad. It's not grabbing to allow disengagement from trans-to-motor to let the car shift. You might as well check out everything else too ie pressure plate, throw out bearing, and flywheel. I remember back in early summer this year, I was having somewhat similar problems. It turned out to be my flywheel. (It was cracked to hell).

Re: shifting problem
This is personal preference.
I got an exedy stage 1 organic clutch, it holds like 200ft/lbs of torque. should be good enough for your purposes.
ACT makes some nice clutches too. flywheel upgrade is also a good idea, I did mine.

Re: shifting problem
I personally don't understand "stages" lol. I'm used to 2100, 2600, etc.

Re: shifting problem
the stages have to do with torque ratings.
with exedy - stage 0 = oem (166ft/lb or something, i dunno)
stage 1 = 212ft/lb
stage 2 = 240ft/lb (something like this)
stage 3 = 300ft/lb (pulling number out of my ****, look it up yourself)
with ACT - things get confusing real quick. You can interchange the pressure plate and the disc, so a weak pressure plate with a race disc would equal high torque handling but shitty drivability (car shaking when clutch let out) or you could get a high pressure plate with a normal clutch disc and it would be a stiff pedal but not hold a lot of torque...
That's why I went with exedy, because it was cheaper and simpler in terms of stage/ratings.
a b20vtec can get pretty torquey so you need to figure how far you're going to build the motor. stock, don't expect to exceed like 200ft/lbs. But if you're doing cams, i/h/e, valves, pistons (raised compression) and a buncha other sheit, you can expect your total torque to exceed 200ft/lb. In which case you'd need a stage 2 or stage 3, because theoretically the stage 1 would slip with all the torque.
best of luck, post up further questions because I just went through all this hassle of choosing a clutch. I'm doing a crvtec too, when i get the money...
