Re: Studdering And Shaking
yes i sprayed some carb cleaner on the outside of the tubing where it looked cracked and i didnt notice any revving. I had my air conditioning on today when i was waiting at a light and it seemed like it was missing a cylinder every second. It was really bad, almost like my car wanted to stall. The ...

Re: Intake Suggestions
this is done to death!!! Please search again. None of those are any good. You need 3 nipples for the best fit, they will also need to be located near the elbow off the TB. I don't understand what you are saying about the MAF.... you don't need a hole for it... it fits in line... being the CAI is a ...

Re: Intake Suggestions
Why did you make two of the same posts? It's annoying... delete one. Anyhow, I'm looking at doing this soon as well. I'm a '96 B6DE, so same thing. There are Integra kits with 2 or 3 nipples. Keep lookin... And don't forget you can always add nipples if you need, or just use breathers on the hoses....

Re: Harder to shift after driving for a while.
ok after a home made funnel and a little time, i was finally done. Put the speedo gear back on and drove her a little. Seems to be much better going from 1st to 2nd now but 3rd to 4th is worse. All in all i would rate the shifting worse now than it was but not by much, just expected better. Ive only...

I went to look in the manual to locate the speedo cable where i would fill the fluid and nothing is there. Also Im assuming that the giant bolt on the bottom of the trans is what im supposed to t...

Re: Harder to shift after driving for a while.
Yes I just did a simple search and found out that there is no filter, dumb on my part. Thanks. I spoke to someone and they said to use a GL4 fluid because of the brass synchros and to use Redline MT90. Does this make sense? Anyone also use this? Thanks again
