This SHIFT Goes Hard! Hybrid Racing B/D Series Shifter Install | Honda Civic Project
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Honda Civic Project shifts into 2023 with a new Hybrid Racing Short throw shifter! I give you my review on the K-Tuned vs. Hybrid Racing shifter to find the BEST option for these 90’s Honda’s. We also replace the leaking shift shaft seal and do a manual transmission fluid change. Enjoy!
My 1999 Honda Civic coupe has been overdue for some NEW modifications! I figured since I needed to replace the leaking shift shaft seal, now would be a good time to compare the K-Tuned X2 Shifter to the Hybrid Racing Shifter. I’ve always said that the shifter upgrade was one of the BEST mods I’ve made to the Honda Civic. So I wanted to see if HR made that shifting experience any different!
For reference, both of these shifters work with B and D series motors amongst EK’s, EG’s, Integra’s, Del Sol’s and more. Whether it’s VTEC or non-VTEC, this shifter upgrade alone will make the slowest of Honda’s feel like a racecar. Both are fully adjustable and can have very SHORT throw shifts, or slightly longer shifts. The OEM shifter on most 90’s Hondas feel extremely sloppy and both of these are a game changer along with upgraded shift linkage bushings.
As usual, I love mods that improve the driving experience of an underpowered car and BOTH of these shifter have a great notchy and precise feel. As far as which one is best, I'll let you guys be the judge of that.
Here's the goodies in today's video! Thanks for watching!

Yes it is, I paired it with the Skunk 2 weighted shift knob and made it feel really solid. I also upgraded the Detent Springs. I don’t remember if you did that, but that makes a huge difference as well.
Happy to see the civic back! I installed a K tuned short shifter after watching your videos, though I used the version 1. I have this really annoying rattle, however :( still shifts great, love the notchy feel and short throw, and the height adjustment.

When it comes down to the hood, I'd definitely keep it the way it is, It being the same color as the rest gives it that clean look.
carbon fiber hood would look sooo good on the red! but a simple look on the honda is also a amazing look, its hard to decide but if i had the money i would go carbon fiber
Just put this exact same knob and shifter in my car last weekend. Can't wait to take it out in the spring

For the shifter spring pin, I can’t recommend enough getting an air hammer anvil made specifically for the Honda shifter pin. Several companies have them. Makes both removal and install take literally 2 seconds with a small, cheap air hammer.

Those shifter bushings look like the Hardrace shifter bushings. Cause they dont look like they're polyurethane like the Energy Suspension ones. BTW Anthony, you mounted the Hybrid Racing shifter in reverse on the linkage. The 2 hole side should be toward the front, and the 1 hole side should be toward the stabilizer bushing

I have been waiting days until someone pointed the orientation of the shifter lol. Long story short, it’ll work both ways. Put it on like you saw in the video, drove it around the block with no issues. Then because I’m crazy and rewatched my footage, I pulled the shifter back out of the car and put it the “right” way. No difference at all in feel or use. So yeah, good eye lol
