8:05-8:30 That grinding issue can be dissolved with some detent springs and by removing the clutch Delay valve. The detent springs are $40 and the CDV delete is free. Thanks for the install video with these though! I have these paired with their shifter base bushings as well!
Your way of removing those retainer c-clips was very smooth. I saw you pried against the donut-shaped metal cable housing thing... I was afraid of doing that, but it seems it's not a problem. Any other tips for getting them freed easily?
I been experiencing the shifter not going all that easy into first gear and not coming out easy out of reverse, the shift bushings are worn out, could this be the problem?
Hey i installed new shifter cable bushing on my 8th gen accord v6 and now I'm unable to shift into first and second and to the left of the neutral standstill. I was wondering if you knew what i could do to fix it.
Have you went back and made sure its all hooked up properly? I mean I would just go back and restart more or less to find the issue because if you can't even move the gearshift left then im guessing one of the cables is not installed right. Maybe by where I take the pliers and lift the clip up? Lmk
After 4 years with the acuity bushing it got loose and caused my cable to come loose and not go into gear..had bad wear on it...guess all the gear banging but still should of been stronger.
Oof that sucks to hear, but whenever we drive a car rough things tend to break sooner or later and really there is only one way to drive these cars to not fall asleep.
@@CarsCouches Well I just ordered the acuity shift link bushings of Amazon for my '14 Si. I will give it a try when I get them. My mechanical skills are like at 6. Out of 10...lol

Thanks for the comment! I have done the CDV removal so definitely helped the most. Next may be master cylinder adjustment.
Great Install vid man, I am going to go ahead and order mine now.

Steve is not really posting or commenting on the channel anymore. I think what was in the video is it. Sorry I couldn’t help more.
It's for longevity that bushing will out last the OEM
Not only that, but the metal bushings flex less than rubber, so it's not as mushy feeling
say I have zero experience working on cars (at least in the engine bay)
is this doable?
If you take it one step at a time I don’t see why not. There’s always a first time.
Just bought these as mine are 16 years old and they are probably cheaper than OEM lmao. We'll see how the install goes
Did you do the shifter base acuity upgrade to aluminum? Doing cable bushings soon got sent a pigtail 🤯
honda 4life
I had them but never installed. Definitely wish I put them in

How many miles do you have on the car? In either case this was a worthwhile upgrade if you currently are running stock.
@@CarsCouches 241,000 miles
Yeah probably wouldn’t hurt to upgrade or refresh the bushings.
Does this model have bushing under the car as well like older model Acura/ Honda?
Nothing for the shift cables there

once he did a pull, "oh yeah no nvm this is nice 😆"
👍🏼
are these available for 9th gen ex models ?
I'm honestly unsure. It might be the same part hopefully. I'd check out some forums or faqs. Sorry
Will you be making more 9th gen civic si DIY videos?
Sure will, just time is an issue lately but be on the look out!
Nice

Installed mines today and I can barely tell a difference from stock 😂😂😂
Haha it's very subtle still but ramming through gears you can tell a little more
Easy install my ass....gotta take off the whole air intake assembly to get to this. I would say moderate. NOT EASY.
Usually only takes me 5 minutes to take it out. Once you do it the first time it's nothing to do after
