Have you guys even tried searching? Honestly...

 

The boot has nothing to do with the operation of the reverse lockout.

 

I've posted tons of **** and I don't see the need to post anymore. It's really not that hard to find the info...

 

Yes I have searched but I come up with differant things like one foe instance is some say 6 speed axels and some say 5 speed lsd. But a lot of them are old thread when this first come up but we were looking for some updated facts about swap!

 

Yer not the only one. I have and so has vsamoylov.

 

5spd axles will work.

 

thanks, im wonder about the speed sensor too witch one to use?

 

im not sure about that one. the 5spd one seems to fit in, but im sure theres going to be custom wiring.

 

6speed has the hole for a speed sensor, so im pretty sure you just use a normal 5speed one.

 

yeah Thats what I was thinking too. If it will go in and they are the same wheel it should read!

 

im sorry ill stay in the shadows...im not trying to get people pissed off or anything

 

Well I bolted up the shifter today. It wasnt all that bad I guess the only thing that was rough was getting these stiff cable routed the way you want them. And the shfter worked nicely with my 4th gen redline max shift boot. It was a nice tight fit around the reverse pull up ring!

 

Where and how much did you get the shifter/cables?

 

does the setup shift in and out of gear or did u only mount up the shifter and cables and havent mounted the tranny up?

also do u have any pics of how u routed it?

 

i got a few pics, i can get more in a few hrs.

I mounted just the shifter!. Ill try to get some pics tonight.

Kevlo I got the shifter and cables with shift boot and shift **** for like $65. but most other are paying in the $200 range for these items. if you cant find any others any where I know where one more set is I cant get for you for about $150 shipped!

 

We plan on using the 6-speed for a swap this summer and Id really appreciate it if you could post pics of what the shifter linkage and all between the tranny and the shifter looks like. Ive never seen the 6-speed shift linkage and brackets first hand.

 

 

Thanks for that. Do you think its possible to adapt a rod driven linkage (like on a 4th gen) to the 6-speed trans?

 

i highly doubt it. shifter assembly for the 6spd is on top of the trans whereas the shifter assembly is on the bottom in a 5spd.

 

No. And why would you want to do such a thing?

 

Sounds very tempting..

Checking bank balance

 

Thought about using the stock civic linkage for the trans. But oh well. We shall use the 6-speed shifter assembly and cables. How much do you expect someone to pay for the 2 cables and shifter assembly? Does anyone have first hand pricing on the 2 cables+shifter stuff?

 

Pricing is all over the place. You really have to call around. I have seen a low of $45 and a high of $250.

 

Where did you find it for 45.00?

 

i havent seen this talked about, but how are you guys going about the tranny mount? from what i understand people say not to try and bolt it to the car so are you guys going the weld route or is there no problem trying to get it to bolt up at the 4th gen location.

 

i paid 200 for mine shipped.

quick question, i know on the 3.0 flywheel theres a spacer sort of thing that mounts between the flywheel and the bolts. does the 3.5 flywheel have this same part?

 

Does anyone know what this part is for?

 

That is a stiffening plate. The centre section of the stock A32 flywheel is pretty thin. The plate allows the clamping force of the bolts to be distributed more uniformly.

The stock 3.5 flywheel is dual-mass. You cannot use a re-inforcing plate as the friction and bolting surfaces must be able to rotate slightly relative to one another..

 

what about aftermarket 3.5 flywheels? is it necessary/possible to use?

 

If the flywheel is intended for the application, no additional parts will be required.

 

So how is it coming alone! Did you get it done today! what happend with the crank ring how did it bolt up to flywheel?

 

well i got the clutch and flywheel in on friday... but my money order hadnt comin in as of fri. f***in usps. so im waiting on the last piece of the puzzle

 

about those stiffening plates, heres a pic of mine.

but the one on my buddies i30 was flat, not bowl like. why do some have flat and some have dished?

 

auto flexplate - flat
manual flywheel - dished

 

Are you waiting on the crank trigger ring?

 

the flywheel has to go to a machine shop i believe to get modified for the 4th gen ring call maximum tuning in li ny, tilley also contacted him and got the info on what to do

 

i know when you finished the swap and get it done you gotta try and modify the stock ecu bracket cause the shifter lines are gonna be in the way

 

also if you have abs you gonna have to reroute all the lines cause the trans is bigger than stock

 

ya im waiting on the trigger ring. you dont have to re route the abs lines, i just took out that bracket, and zip tied the abs modulator up to the master cylinder
