a 97 JDM ITR engine is dropped onto a 95 auto-manual converted civic coupe.

which shift linkage is best for function and oem shift feeling with a skunk 2 double bend shifter? an integra LS, GSR, or ITR shift linkage? the ITR shift linkage that came with my engine is bent too much out of range, so i need to go to the junk yard to get a replacement.

PLEASE HELP. the swap is 95% done. all they need to do is this, plug the AC back in, and cleaning up the center console and the wiring.

thanks a whole lot for your responses.

LS/GSR/R/Si has the same length linkage. The JDM linkage has a gold color while the USDM linkage is black. None will really change how it feels with a shifter, unless you use polyurethane shifter bushings.

 

anymore suggestions, guys? please help us out... we need opinions so we can get this swap done and running today.
