i am usin a linkage that i made with a short shifter. i have a 91 hatch and a b18a1. it grinds sometimes and its hard to get in gear but i know the tranny is clean ~ it ran perfectly fine on my b16. any suggestions? I think maybe i bent my linkage but i dont see any thing wrong with it. anyone ever had problems with short shifters on hybrid motor? and one in the bay area got a stock acura shifter for sale?
