I'm not sure what you are asking. I would install the parts with your hands and tools...

no your clutch that came with your crx is a D, you cannot use it. wont fit B, also your linkage would need to be cut/weld if it's from integra. not a direct bolt on.

I have spare JDM Crx linkage, as well as Hasport linkages, both will work depending on how close you are. Also, I used my stock clutch cable with no issues at all. Maybe I've done something wrong but then again it drives?
