Well, I have a b16 swap with the SiR shift linkage and a Neuspeed shortshifter (I think it's a little thicker than stock @ the bushings). Anyway, my shifting is really tight (a lot of resistance), I thought it may be the shift linkage, but I'd like to try some bushings first. I was gonna get ES, but I don't know which car to order them for. Anyone have a clue?

BTW: I did a search, the topic was kind of touched, but my question is a little more specific.

 

Just buy the shift bushing kit for the 90~ Tegs or any Acura ( with a B series engine that is )

yup, for 90-91 teg will work.

 

Speaking of short shifter for a b16a1, is it possible to use one made for OE CRX?

 

yes, depending on the linkage. i can't see any reason why you would have a linkage on a 1st gen b16 that wouldn't fit an oem or aftermarket crx shifter.

 

mine was actually for the stock shift linkage (it came boxed with the car), so I finally put it on when I did the swap. It fits normal, I guess (like I said it was fatter at the linkage, but it probably would have been similar on the stock linkage).

 

Hmm, u said ur shifting is really tight. Did u try using any white lithium grease on the pivot point or the the linkage connecting point?
