Default Need suggestions on shift linkage for my 90 HB with B18B

My 1990 civc HB has a b18b and integra trans. The shifter feels like mashed potatoes and I don't think it is out of an integra. It looks like the stock unit that has been modified. MY buddies 93 civic had the same engine trans and has an awesome feel. I am looking for tight close shifts. What should I do? I have been eyeing HASPorts kit for $199. Is it worth it or is there a better/cheaper option?

I have the Hasport linkage on my car. It changes the shifter position a little but the shifting feels really crisp especially with a short shifter. I would recommend the Hasport piece unless you can get a knew custom linkage welded up.

I think HCP might be a bit cheaper, but I'm not a hundred percent on that. Ask blown90hatch, I got my mounts and linkage from him.

I used the JDM SiR linkage. Works great!!! Of course it feels like it belongs because it should.

Does HCP have a website? How easy are the JDM SiR linkages to get ahold of? I might just go with the hasport. Say I bought a hasport unit, would I be getting a short throw shifter for a civic or integra?

I got the hasport ones.. great feel.... hcp is ok, but isnt it the adjustable one... that way you can make the throws a crisp as you like....
I got mine for division13racing@hotmail.com
dwight.. someone just posted about him.. good guy.. he can get either one for you
