if you have basic welding skills that you feel is trust worthy, make your own linkage. thats your best bet... dustin is talking about HASports adjustable ones, they are doo doo.

Linkage is easy to modify:




You need to add a little over 1" to both of them....

my HCP shift linkage works perfect, ppl most commonly make this mistake with adjustable shift linkages... one side of the linkage is upside down...

My adjustable linkage would not work in any direction, upside down, inside out, backwards, forwards, painted green....

It either hit the floorpan, the other bar, or just didn't line up.

Freaking POS.

And why the heck does it need to be "adjustable" anyways? Is HCP quality control so bad that the motor gets positioned in different places with every set of mounts? HAsport doesn't need an "adjustable linkage".

I like the mounts, but the linkage is

HASport dosen't make an adjustable linkage.
even says on their website regarding their linkages: "not adjustable because it dosen't need to be."

i havent heard any positive things about placeracing

AZ...they copied hasport billet mounts.

for best bang for your buck, HCP (comes with 4 mounts instead of hasport's 3) $375

for shift linky, lengthen your stock si linky or shorten 90-93 linky.

u can use the jdm mounts but you have to have the brackets cut off and re-welded, i wouldnt recomend doing this chances are the re-weld wont be strong enough, a guy i know just recently put a b16 in his crx si he used HCP mounts, the motor sits nice but u have use a little extra effort to line up the rear mount to get the bolt in. and about the hasport mounts, i wouldnt get them unless your gonna get the billet mounts, the other ones suck. i havent come in contact with any place racing mounts i dont know how they perform. so overall if you have enough money to get the hasport billet mounts get those if not get the HCP mounts.
