On my 91 CRX with a YS1 I used a 92-93 Integra GS-R, fit perfectly. Should be the same for you.

Is a 93 gsr clutch cable longer than a 90-93 LS? I went to a honda dismantler and compared the legnth of the 88-91 honda to the 90-93 integra LS and the DX was about an inch or two longer. They didnt have a 93 GSR clutch cable.

I don't know what to do because some people w/ Ef's still use their stock clutch cable.

I have hasport mounts w/ the orange inserts. It sits the motor back and lower. Im going to call them and see what they say.

Any other ideas?

I didn't bother trying my stock cable, it was pretty much toast anyway. I maybe could have compared the lengths, but oh well. I can't imagine a mount kit that puts the motor in such a place that the clutch cable can't reach it, unless it's like upside down. Alls I know is that mine works.

the mounts have nothing to do with the clutch cable,

the cable mount and the bracket on the tranny is longer than the dseries,
i just broke mine today, from my understanding the ls and gsr tranny cable are the same. i ordered a ls cable, if its an inch longer like you say that should be more than enough,


this is probably too late though since ponama was this week.

i went to acura on last week and compared the 93 gsr vs. the 90-93 LS. they were the same. the weekend b4 i went to a honda dismantler and compared a 88-91 DX to a 90-93 integ...and my DX was longer. Well i bought the LS and it seemed to work pretty good so far.
