i just swapped my h22a w/ m2b4 into my cb7. the shidter felt a bit different from the f22 swap, but i didnt think anything of it. all week it ran hard with no problems. i was missing 3rd, but i just thought it was me getting use too the shifter.

yesterday at taco bell, i completely lost reverse. there were no symptoms or anything. i went too my friends house and i shifted the gears at the tranny and reverse all of a sudden started workin, and the shifter felt normal like it was with the f22. i raced all last nights and didnt miss any gears.

now today i was crusing at like 40 or so and rev matched to 2nd......i missed third. NOW if i shift real slow into 5th i can feel it grind and reverse doesnt work again.

im super ******* pissed. the swap came from hmotors and had 0 fluid in it, because of shipping purposes. i added a little over 2 qts of honda mtf before the motor was even started.

my guess is its a linkage issue. i know linkage stretches over time, but could this be my tranny going out?

 

im not being told that either my clutch master and/or slave is going out. and that its a common prob with the h series.

 

sounds like the 5th gear shift fork, which is a common problem, and there actually is a Honda TSB on this issue. If you do some searching you will find more info on this issue

this seems too be the same problem im having. 5th gear syncro should fix my problem correct?

 

sounds like dr. honda is havin a problem

ya it should

 

well on the bright side, itll be like new again, and itll give me a reason too do a clutch. then ill get some mounts and ill actually be able too launch my car and put that lsd too use, lol.

i just spent $2600 and swapped the motor in myself (took 41 hours), i drive it like a granny too work all week, and cant even race it.....wTF?! lol. im so aggravated.

 

will a 5th gear syncro for a usdm h22 tranny work in my jdm m2b4?

 

I don't know this for sure, but I don't think so, the gears are different ratios, and I believe that constitutes a different syncro.

Call up gear speed inc, they'll be able to help you out.

 

thanks man.

 

do you think it is my syncro though?-

 

well HMotors is going too completely cover everything. alls i have too do is send it back. the pay for shipping from fl - cali, fix it, and pay for shippiing back too me. im so happy.
