The whole JDM thing on the back firewall kinda turns me off

I couldn't see wtf it was spelling, but the J must be broken.

Anyways I was thinking about the dual-motor shifter while looking at that CRX. The dual motor shift linkage will have some issues if designed as mentioned earlier. The side/side movement won't be a prob if you connect the two, but the in/out definately will. Even with rock-hard poly mounts, any bit of engine torquing where the move opposite of each other will pop one tranny out of gear. So you'll either need solid mounts, or something I have cooked up.

I was thinking you could make a linkage just like that CRX, except have the rear linkage holes severly elongated where it mounts to the shift lever. This way it will turn side/side, but can freely move 2-3" in/out. A ridgid cable like a normal shift cable would have to be mounted to the front shift linkage, anchored to the front shift stabilizer bar. Then it would have to snake back, mount to the rear shift linkage, and be anchored to the motor. That would capture the in/out movement w/o engine movement captured. With the holes elongated enough, you could practically have stock mounts and massive wheel hop w/o it pulling either out of gear. There may be a tad gained when you move side/side, but it should find it's way in gear.

Sorry, no progress has been made

Wife has been on my case to get our remodel done. This led to having to rip the sheetrock off one of the walls in the garge tracing wires, one of my storage shelves collapesed, my garage is destroyed and there is no room

I do not see this getting done before the 15th. Sorry guys.

Does this mean we have to do a 24hr. buildathon garage and car. ;D

Hey check your PMs.

Run a D17 transmission, they are cable shift.

I thought older civics were too? I'm too used to accords and most civics I've worked on were EM2's, so I've pretty much just seen cable shifters.

Joseph Davis · « **Reply #278 on:** May 06, 2010, 07:23:56 PM »

I'm pretty sure everything up to '01 is rod shift. I haven't seen a 1G or 2G Civic in a while, but it's not like you can bolt D-series to those much less find parts for them.

ah. Learn something every day.

Back on topic, +1 for using cable trannies.

I don't think you want this nog to rebuild your garage. Take one look at his own...

Phate we're talking cable shift, not cable clutch. The problem with cable shift is that it requires stiff cables. You'd likely have to add 2 big fat cable-clutch cables onto the accord/k20/etc shift lever assembly you welded in. OR get 2 custom cables made. I'd rather go with solid mounts instead

IMO solid mounts or a hybrid sliding rod/cable shift for the rear are the best 2 options. THe hater-tech dual motor civic uses nearly solid mounts, and it apparently works fine. However they've only tested it with half throttle, no launching, granny shifting, and the wrong ecu's.

That's like getting your favorite porn star alone, and naked. Then NOT fucking her, just to said you got her undressed.

They're not allowed to have porn stars though, it's against their rules.

So I was looking around to see what could be used for that splined shaft I was talking about. Mcmaster has a 10mm shaft+bearing for $155, I said fuck that. Then I had a great idea - S20 splined mainshaft + d15 clutch hub! Cut off the splines, weld it to one side of the linkage, do the same for the clutch hub on the other linkage half, and use a shock boot to weatherize it.

It's designed to move in & out w/o binding, offers 2" of movement, plentiful as fuck, and has very little backlash. Even if it is a tad tight, you can fix that easy with a quick sandblasting/polishing/hardening. Then you rig an accord's shifter cable to supply the in-out movement past the hub/shaft and you're golden. If you're worried about weight you simply bore out the splined section.

I hope this provides some motivation. My sol now has a SOHV .16L in the rear:

GX160, .163L displacement OHV

i worked on an awd ef wagon that had a cable shift. useless in this thread since it has the married transfer case

Hey what is the status on this build?

malichite · « **Reply #298 on:** July 20, 2010, 08:21:08 PM »

Rod Ends, DOM Tube, and Tube Ends were ordered today for radius rods. Del Sol sale is not going as planned. CRX is for sale and if not sold by end of week will be sent to scrapper. Engine will be coming out of Del Sol in two weeks if not sold and going in the back of this. Not much progress was done for the last while due to a bunch of family shit, work, and house remodel stuff. That will all be changing now. Nigga got some motivation last Sunday while fixing an exhaust on a friends 4 wheeler and looking over the car. Also picking up a fuel tank from a guy tomorrow from his 72 Chev pickup that was behind the seat. Hoping it will work out behind my seat.

Also been spending some time working on my new Jeep. Fucking thing has ruined me and that is all I have had motivation to work on for a while.

Now fuck off you other lifeless haters that have ridiculous amounts of time to work on your shit.

What CRX? The 1G? You'd crush a 1G?
