^^LOL Pat I don't own one and I know more lol.... Yeah Josh I had heard it was helping out alot, your prob not losing second gear anymore are you lol, that was funny, it popping out =)
Second gear never popped out Brad it was 3rd that wouldn't go in sometimes and on occasion it would pop out if I didn't put it all the way in the gate. There is no more grinding 2nd gear and the shifts are a lot stiffer. They replaces 3/4 and 5/6 synchros as well as my shifter cables and stuff. Oh yeah I am trying to get Learie to go this Friday because we are putting some rims on his car.
Yeah I think it is the same thing my friend with the SI has the same prob. You might want to check that out it makes a world of difference. Oh yeah got my JDM shift boot and shift **** not to mention my JDM COIN HOLDER
! LOL JDM YUS!!!

i think i need 1/2 2/3 3/4 4/5 and hell why not reverse while im at it. argh. sucks to drive a notchy, grindy honda.
all you guys with RSX's, you should check out, read, and sign the petition some1 made a loooong time ago about the RSX trannys...i bet something will get done about this BS in the future. just wish some1 would make something remotely similar for the 7thGen coupe/sedan/Si as well. we ALL need it! bad!

Acura did do something about it there is a TSB on certain VIN#'s for the problem I just took that in there and told them about the prob and when the service guy tested my car he replicated the problem. Brad I got the Aluminum Type-R shift **** not the titanium one I can't see myself paying 200+ for a shift ****.
I talked to Acura about my gears on the phone. They said there was a recall for it but my VIN# didn't make it in the range they had listed.
So my notchy gears still suck at the moment. I dunno if I should just drive in and ask them to look at it.

Do it, my Vin didn't fall in the range either but I said screw that I have the problem whether my vin is listed or not. Do you go to Fountain Acura? Melanie is really nice and I always try to deal with her if I go in for service. On a side note I might be selling my JDM headlights with the HID kit if you are interested let me know.
