    I was able to install the bushings without removing the clips that hold the cables. It was a piece of cake👌

    Magnetic pick up tool is a great thing to pick up dropped bolts, pins ect that you cant reach by hand.

    Dude I totally struggled with the cable clips on my Type R. I accidentally dropped one in the engine bay, unfortunately I wasn't able to find it because the bottom of the Type R is sealed and didn't have a lift to remove the under tray. So I had to order a new clip. But the upgrade was totally worth it

    Heyyyy! First all your installation are so so so solid my man, thank you for the work ! Quick question: I didn’t remove the metal clip at the end of the cable lane( the one you knock with wooden hammer handle) and still finish the installation is there any different? Should I do it again just to remove the clip and put it on again ? Thanks ! Looking forward to your reply

    • @ChrisLowpes

      Just make sure the clip is on properly and not loose and you should be good! Thanks for watching!

      Chris Lowpes thanks for the reply. I was thinking if I should do that mod to mine just rolled over 20,000 miles on it 18si. Also do you think just doing the bushing and not the box will make a difference? I don’t know why Honda would want to delay the shifting engagements and also program the rev hang. Like what the hell was that engineer thinking especially in a car that is geared towards sport car.

    • @ChrisLowpes
      @ChrisLowpes  5 років тому

      What really helps the rev hang is if you get Ktuner. Just doing the bushings will definitely help the oem shifter. If the Acuity Shifter assembly if out of the question get the base bushings and the rocker arm with the shifter bushings. You will have a way better shifter.
