a little help needed for my ef
i bought my hatch about 3 or 4 weeks ago, the shifter has a lot of play. Meaning when i am in any gear it moves as if it were in nuetral. Does anyone have any idea as to whats wrong and how i can fix it, the 4spd was swapped out to a 5spd. please no stupid comments just trying to figure out whats wrong so i can fix it, i hate driving it like this
haha yboost you owe someone 100$ becuase i just got under the car today, come to find out the bushings are still good, its the pin for the linkage itself that goes to the tranny it has serious play, anyone know how i can replace this

Re: a little help needed for my ef
yes. but I've seen people use bolts, nails, the wierdest material because they didnt have a bitch pin. if its loose at all, the shifter will have a lot of play in it.
