This is how to install a short throw shifter in any 88-00 honda civic B or D series engine and manual transmission. I use a megan racing short throw shifter as the shifter i install
Man, hate the audio all you want, this is the only tutorial that actually showed me how the assembly looks well, all the other ones were meh, but I understood everything in your vid ❤
Because the amount of slop taken out and throw of the shifter will depend on how much other stuff you replace (shifter bushings, bitch pin and so on) and the throw will depend on what shifter you choose and what type of transmission its on.
Well you didn’t mention that bushing that was over the ball portion of the shifter. Did you throw it down the driveway? Put it on the Megan shifter ball?
All of that and didn't put it in gear and wiggle it at the end....smh. Where do I get the bushing and rubber boot from for cheap that is not ebay? Please send me a link
@@jdmjedi777 that’s awesome! I’m gonna buy the same one then. I’ve heard bad things about some of these aftermarket short shifters. A lot of them don’t have reviews. Thanks for letting me know
It’ll take care of some of the slop but not all of it completely. I know some shops recommended changing just the bushing in order to get rid of the slop.
The megan racing shifter i used in this video is definitely a good, affordable and strong option to replace it. I definitely dont foresee ever snapping it.
Grayson Burrell I definitely like it. Good throw and a strong feel. What I didn't show in the video is that I also replaced the shift linkage bushings with new energy suspension bushings and a brand new bitch pin. With all these upgrades it feels amazing! All the slop is gone. The only down side to this shifter I would say is that is sits lower. So the shift knob is further away from the steering wheel. So if you do any autocross or track day events this is obviously a disadvantage.
It's more of a demonstration on how to install the shifter not a review of that specific short throw shifter itself. The amount of slop removed and the throw of the shifter will all be determined by the condition of the rest of the shift linkage setup. I ended up putting in a new bitch pin and replacing all the bushings with new prothane bushings and I have virtually no slop and it feels great.
Its was help full. Most people skiped steps. Thank you.
Thanks for the vid man my CRX 89 shifts like stirring bath water, I like how the vid quality is good but the audio is radio keep it up man I'm a fan
Man thanks for the video bro you help me out a lot. There's not too many videos about it on their keep the good work up

Seats are fresh 👌
big help for my 85 crx
Always glad it helped out.
10/10 video
Super helpful video brotha! Thank you
Why not show the throw and lack of slop after install?
Because the amount of slop taken out and throw of the shifter will depend on how much other stuff you replace (shifter bushings, bitch pin and so on) and the throw will depend on what shifter you choose and what type of transmission its on.
This shit is very help full

Hey four years later how does the shifter work?
Works great!

You should have changed the bushings since you were in there
I see in a comment reply that you did other upgrades. With just replacing your shifter, did it solve your slop?

So a 10mm, 12mm, 13mm ? Sounds easy!
I gotta replace mine on my 89 crx, shit snapped on me while taking a corner

jdmjedi777 how long did u had the blue ebay shifter? I just ordered 1 lol hopefully is worth it
Oh I have a beer tap as a shifter no problem there
Why talk during the recording if your just gunna fast forward
How stupid why you end it without shifting through the gears?? To show us if the slip went away and how short the throw is ...
