ok well im nearly done with my ls swap into a 90 std hatch and im to connecting the clutch cable to the transmission. i have heard many times that the stock cable will fit and be functional, but no matter how much i pull that cable is not fitting... is there anything that i need to modify to make it work or do i just need a different one? thanks

 

what you do is unbolt the bracket that holds the cable, slip the cable in, then re bolt the bracket back in place with the cable on it. Its a cheap trick for getting a stubborn cable on.

 

I just had the same problem with my crx I had a s1 tranny it died so I got a j1 and a new clutch setup my orginal cable didnt work it was to tight causing over engaging of the clutch so I got a 90-91 integra and all problems went away

 

thanks for the help guys!
