Greetings all,

So i just got my evo 9 and while we were building the engine finishing the car i noticed that it has a 6 speed shifter cables installed on a 5 speed trans swap.

And unfortunately the 5 speed shifter cable is discontinued.

Would be any other was to fix this problem?

so now my shifter cables has 2 small bushings, which should have been 1 big and 1 small for the 5 speed.

I saw that the evo x later models has similar cables bushing but anyone can confirm if it works on the evo 8 trans?


Thanks

 

Pump for help, anyone?

 

I'm not aware of any cables other than the factory cables that work with the 5 speed. I'm in the process of developing an aftermarket replacement set of cables for guys doing 5 speed swaps but it will be another month or two until I've completed the design.

 

Thats wonderful!

I dont mind waiting to be honest as i dont have any other option at this moment.

I hope you can keep us updated on that.

 

I'll be sure to be posting about them when they're ready.

 

any update on these cables ?
I am looking for a new set for 5spd with the bushings.

 

Still sorting things out with cable suppliers. Hoping to have it kicked off in the Spring.

 

found this yesterday and ordered from them.

Now I'm abit lost.

I ordered these 5 speed shifter cables but both have the small end/bushes. But the part number on the packaging is for 5spd.

My current one has 1 big and 1 small.

Now having spent 500odd AUD and shipping, customs etc. Can I use these cables or will it be a problem ?

 

Did you end up using those cables? I am about to order them. Please let me know. Thanks

 

I have installed them as yet, but I did ask a few shops and they say it can be used.
I might only them on this weekend if i get time.

 

Ok please let me know after you install it. I think you will need to use 2 small bushings instead of 1 big 1 small, if I am correct

 

Yes they do have the oem rubber bushings on , but i do have aluminum bushings to go on, both small.

 

I had some of these on order recently but ended up cancelling it. I had seen a review where someone said that it didn't fit usdm evo so I backed out on it. Guess we'll see if Veebeel can give us confirmation whenever he tries.

 

I follow these guys on FB and they just released a set of cables if you wanna look them up
