My B16 has been sloppy for years, even with upgraded bushings. My 85 CRX that has 75k on it is much tighter but still nothing like this K series shifter. I know the resistance is a bit higher because I went with the Hybrid Racing cables vs stock cables.

I’m continuing to research what I will need for the swap. I’ll post my list for comments / review when I think I’ve taken it as far as I can.

If it wasn’t for the laser going down again I think they will be out already.

Sorry I have not updated in a while. Between travel for work and some delays getting items we haven’t made a lot of progress.
We worked on some things today. Made a bracket to hold the fuel filter and FPR. Also found a BMW fuel line that works perfectly for the return line. Need to make the lines from feed hardline to filter and FPR to rail. Now that the bracket aligns we are going to weld it up, made from two pieces of aluminum flat stock, and powder coat it.

We also worked up a design for a battery bracket that will be on the transmission side frame rail. Just did some CAD (Cardboard Aided Design) work on it.
We also did some final mock-up on the radiator. We were testing a few different heights to see what the best option for a filler neck would be. Something at the radiator or something at the housing, housing is looking to be the best option.

He just said this afternoon, no specific time given. Keep in mind Phoenix is the same as PST right now.
sorry I don’t have more

I will be trying the ef crx hubs to work with the axles. Maybe Brian can go over that setup also if he'd like
