i have a JDM H22 and trans in my CL and when i shift at 8k i really have to rip the shifter, like theres pressure holding me back. it only happens at high rpm's. shifting is fine otherwise.
before i get ganged up on about shifting that high it was only when i raced at the track. no point in taking it that high on the street just to show off. i hardly street race eitehr.

-my clutch isnt in the best shape, probaly should get a new one soon
-and my master cylinder (not slave) constantly leaks, but i try and keep the resvoir full at all times.

im really stumped on what it is, and i dont want it to be a problem once the track opens.

 

first i would replace the master cylinder man, that **** will leave you on the side of the road one day man. that mc will eventually lead to grinding away gears.

 

i carry a big jug of brake fluid with me at all times. ill get to it one day.

 

constantly filling the mc with brake fluid is not gonna get you far for long and it doesnt stop air from getting into the lines so you need to change it asap. its gonna trash your clutch and eventually your syncros.$$$$$$$$$$$

 

My Friend Car Was have same Problem Like u, Over 8000 Rpm's.Transmission Is hard To Change, the Engine is B16A.
If u Found What is your Transmission Problem. Please post at This Topic OK? I wanna Help My Friend for His Problem..

 

thats a very good point. thanks. im gonna get on it. i gotta stop being lazy. i work for honda, that part is mad cheap anyways.

Another common problem is the pressure plates breaking at the spring housing. You didn't state what kind of clutch was in it so there could be other issues. What fluid is in it and when was it last changed? Both may have an affect on shift quality.

 

the clutch is whatever clutch the japanese guy had when he was driving it. most likely stock.

 

bump.

 

tranny wasnt ment to shift at 8k. beef up the tranny

 

8K is basically the stock rev limit?
