So I just did a swap into my EJ: ls/vtec, 00 SI b16 tranny and linkage and the APC short shifter I had before. My problem is that I have no reverse. It doesn't really seem like the linkage is binding when I have someone shift while I'm under the car. I have 5th but it is hard to get into and it won't downshift unless I try to go into reverse. Could it be the linkage? Energy suspension stabilizer bushings? Shifter? Any help would be great.

It is supposed to be rebuilt with new synchros, and a Phantom Grip LSD. Do you think the guy put it together wrong??

 

damn fix it up look at da tranny..
