i've never heard someone say you could use a dc linkage so i presume that it can't be modified/shortened to fit like a da linkage. if i had to giess i would guess that the linkage itself would hit some portion of the underside of the car and hinder function if you tried to use it

the gsr and ls shift linkage is the same dimensions,you need the b swap linkages avid,or hasports are the best even innovative.the integra shift linksges are too long like a inch or so. Ive done this in a ef hatch before ive cut and relocated the shifter hole in the floor back a few inches and it worked it even looked stock when the center consol was in

Just so you guys know, a cut and welded GSR linkage feels 10 times better than any aftermarket linkage. speaking from experience.

IIRC the linkage has to be cut 2 3/8 of an inch.

B20 guy>>>HASport linkage. DA linkaage fits sedans only I believe.


Extreme lightning. Start your own thread

I will say this, the method is same as b18 non vtec, seeing as they are the same motor, b20 is simply overbored from the factory

extar oiling, extra cooling, and a TUNE IS A MUST
