Default Justed installed a new clutch. Know I loosing gears. why?

I just installed a new clutch in my brothers car last night. The tranny had a slight 4th gear grind but now it has gotten worse. Also all the other gears were fine until I took it to the store to get some gas this afternoon. I try to put in reverse and all it does is grind. I tries putting it into 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 5th before I tried putting it into reverse but it still ground. Its a J1 tranny. Can someone enlighten me on what the problem could be. I am pretty sure whats wrong with 4th(syncro). I have put about 75 miles on the new clutch.

thanks

sounds like the clutch is adjusted too loose and not fully disengaging. Tighten the adjustment **** a little

update: I took my clutch cable and bracket off me b series motor and transfered it over to my brothers car. Problem Fixed. I didn't even have to adjust anything. It seems that my brothers car had a d series cable and a modified d series bracket. My question is I have no ideo what come off my car, so do I need to get a 90-93 integra cable and tranny bracket?

thanks
