searched and found a few problems very similar to mine but no direct answer. i just finished my 1st gen JDM b16 swap into my del sol. Got it running, fixed all the leaks, had everything ready to go and tried to put it in gear to back it out of the garage and it wouldn't go...it would run through all of the gears while the car was NOT on/started but not while the engine is running. While the engine is running, you can rev it up and hear a whizzing sound from the transmission (i'm assuming its the flywheel spinning?) but the car doesn't move. I bled the system thoroughly and had a decent pedal feel afterwards. The pedal did feel a little odd compared to stock, but i thought nothing of it.

i have read that it could possibly be my pressure plate, or possibly the wrong clutch kit? i bought a standard clutch kit from Advance Auto Parts (till i can get some money for ACT) for a 91 Integra. Is this the wrong clutch for my b16 (i was told they were compatible)? Could I have put something in wrong (bearing, plate, etc?)? Could i have possibly messed up on the hydro-cable conversion (hasport kit)? the slave cylinder definitely pushes the shift lever/arm up a substantial amount. i am lost here...

any help would be greatly appreciated because i am coming BACK into town from school next weekend for 3 days to finish this and if i don't fix it i have to buy another $200 plane ticket AND have no car this quarter

 

bump because you dont need a plane ticket, good luck

 

haha thanks
no kidding. i'm a poor college kid (like most) and can't afford to have to fly home over something as simple as this.

 

morning bump before i get on a plane back to GA...

hope someone can shed some light on my problem by the time i check this later tonight
