Default itr shift linkage fit on a da?

I was wondering if the itr shift stabilzer bar and the gearshift rod will fit on a DA? anyone know? And is it only a certain year or something that fits?

yeah it does. it used to be a controversy about it on g2ic awhile ago. but pretty much upgrading from a stock one to a gsr or type r would be beneficial. type r or gsr shifter to match would make it great.

i myself have a gsr shift linkage and b&m dual bend in my da and it felt more stabilized and some what "balanced" then the stock linkage.

i really don't know the difference from type r and gsr. but there is a difference from the stock one and the type r or gsr. it's a lot more beefy then the stock one.

yea i dunno. ive driven dc's and stuff and the shifting feels really good, very stable and the shifter doesnt wanna move around in gear. Mine on my da feels all lose and crap. And i heard u can get the dc shift stabilzer and it feels better.

you'll love it, don't forget to get in bushings too. they're like 8 bucks off of amazon.com. do you believe it, amazon sells car parts crazy huh?

Ever wonder its tighter because you changed to a new bushing? I feel no difference beside the fact the dc shift linkages have a bent and more ergonomic.

Default Re: itr shift linkage fit on a da? (dcRay)

so there was a tread on g2ic all about this subject. i tried to find but i guess it's old and was removed or something like that.

so this is my reasoning for getting my dc shift linkage.... when i very first got my car, the shifter it self was just really sloppy. like there was no effort to move it side to side, the weight of the shifter moved it .old and wore u joint? probably, our cars are like 15 years old plus.

really, what you're benefiting from this mod is the stabilizer bar, if you were to compare, side by side, both bars the da one is a lot skinnier than the dc one. so that will help with sloppiness of our original one, because of the extra weight from the dc stabilizer bar. with that said, that is going to help you have more control over shifting, because now you have to put a little effort into going into gear (nothing really big, but it's noticable compared to the da one) and then you're most likely going to get a dual bend shifter, oem or after market this is going to bring the shifter closer to the driver. so if you have a arm rest, you can use it to it's full potential. by resting your arm and shifting. you could probably fix the da u joint but then you wouldn't have to extra weight from the dc stabilizer bar.

also it's always good to upgrade our 15 year old plus bushings with some new ones and that's going to help to. so all in all, having this mod is hypothetically speaking going to give you "more control" of your shifting.

i would have to say that it's helped me. because i had a problem down shifting from 5th to 3rd. it would always go into 2nd instead
then i put the dc linkage in, and it fixed it right away. but no need to down shift into 3rd no more... type r transmission fixed that, but that's a different story
