I have a 1995 LS motor in my CRX..and my HCP shift linkage sits all wierd..i mean it sits far right..and i was wondering if any of you guys could help me out..Thanx..

 

You mean the shift lever? I have the HCP linkage and when I put it in I only had the old lever, and that thing stuck really to the right, 3rd gear was in my passenger's knee. I bought a Del Sol shift lever, they have a left bend in them, and adjusted it again and that corrected my lever position. Hope that's what you were talking about.

 

just try to adjust the bottom bar...

 

yeah its the shift lever..how do i correct this problem??

 

What lever are you using? When I first finished the swap I only had the STD shift lever(which has a bend forward) and I adjusted it so it would not bind up but with it adjusted for the transmission the lever would stick up and towards the passenger side of the cabin. I bought a Del Sol shift lever, which is much shorter than the STD lever and has two bends, to the back and to the left. This corrected the position of the shifter, and has a much shorter throw than the STD one. It sits stock center now, I'm very happy with it.

 

i'm using the stock crx hf..

 

so which one should i get??..delsol or gsr shifter??..

 

I believe the 94+ Teg shifter won't work with the HCP linkage, I bought a ITR one and it is too long at the bottom to fit into the HCP arm. The Del Sol shifter fit perfectly into it, just has the different bends I described above.

 

so any short throw delsol shifter would work rite??

The Del Sol VTEC one, any year.

 

it has to be a vtec one..can it be just a delsol short throw shifter??

 

I'm not certain, that's the one I used, does the del sol short shifter you have have a bend back and to the left? Mine is already pretty short with the Honda shifter, I imagine it would be drastically shorter throws with a short shifter one.
