Im getting a new tranny for my 99 si on wed, so I ordered my act clutch kit, Fidanza flywheel, skunk2 dual bend short shifter, skunk2 shift ****, and energy suspension shifter stabalizer bushings. I am as giddy as a school girl. Then I will hopefully be getting a 1.6 el conversion for my civic within the next month or 2. What do you all think?

I think there's a problem if you have a 99 and need a new tranny already and I don't think it's the mechanical systems that have issues ... ..... as for the 1.6el conversion go for it...

civicsi1415

ha ha very funny.....well it was really my falt i learned to drive a clutch on this car so oh well

imported_gatherer

I learned to drive a stick on my car too ... but it still has the same clutch I learned on.....

ryuujin

that explains all the parts man You live in the US, where all the stuff you ordered are soooo much cheaper!

hmm, and this thread should be in umm...I'll throw it into the exterior forum since you're only questiong concerns the 1.6 EL conversion

btw: where are you gonna get the EL conversion from? Vancouver?

civicsi1415, remember that the EL is MOSTLY bolt on... not all... the front bumper support will need modding... make sure you have ALL the parts. You'll see what I mean.

Hey, if you don't mind me asking how much did the bushings cost? And How much did the clutch and flywheel cost? What clutch did you get?


You'll be very happy with the shifter I have the same thing, worth every penny!!!

civicsi1415

i have every part for the conversion i want (lights R&L, fenders R&L, turn signl sockets, the light support bars L&R, and the 1997-1998 grill).......i payed $13 for the bushings, 450 for the clutch kit, and 209 for the flywheel.... it came out to like 700 for a three shipped from florida

imported_Team Rukus

Not tru bro.
the bumper support is not needed.
its direct bolt on
