car was running just fine. next thing u lknow wont shift into 4th gear. 5th gear worked for a mile or so. now car wont go into any gear unless motor is shut off. any guesses as to why this is? its a b18b motor and a jdm b16 tranny. its of course a cable clutch. is it poss that something like inside the tranny came apart?

 

sounds more like your clutch went out.

 

it didnt have any like probs at all like no warning signs. could it ba a blown cv joint is was crunching when i turn

 

ok i jsut tryed it again. car will go into gear but when u release the clutch all it does is sit there and grind

 

Sounds like it could be a shifter fork

 

No idea for sure - just throwing it out there -
If your clutch is good and your cable is adjusted right, then possible blown diff?

 

only one thing you can do really if all exterior functions are ok,
drop the trans and inspect the flywheel ,clutch, bearing ect...
if you dont find anythign wrong then get a new trans or have yours built

 

You may have gotten the wrong clutch for your transmission. The splines are different on some of the B-series transmissions. What happened to you sounds exactly like what happened to me. I bet when you take the clutch off, the splines on it are chewed up.

 

well car is fixed with 30 bucks.. clutch cable was broke lol who woulda expected that one...

 

that happend to me...sucks huh..but u can adjust ur clutch calbe tighter ull be fine....try it

 

nah i replaced it. it was un adjustable lol. it was a d series cable and original haha go figure... well car is running and being sold this week so i dnt care anymore

 

you probably blew the trans

 

ok since ppl cant read the fact that i said its fixed by a 30 dollar cable apparently i have to do this. if ur goin to reply to a post its usually smart to read everthing !!!!! if that were the case u woulnt have said i prob blew the trans......i just drove the car lol

 

Those cables are adjustable.

 

not when it snaps

 

You mentioned it was nonadjustable, just making sure we're on the same wavelength.

 

When it was broke it wasnt adjustable being that it was broke, now it is though that it is fixed.

 

haha yes its fixed thanks tho
