I'm going to calculate the stock compression ratio using numbers found in different threads, and a couple other sources. So I've read a bit-o-this and a bit-o-that....... Sources Compression Ratio Explained: http://www.team-integra.net/sections/articles/showarticle.asp?ArticleID=233...

I have my transmission partly disassembled to have a look at what may be causing a "catch" when going from 2nd to 3rd gear. Sometimes, particularly when shifting fast and hard, the shifter will catch inbetween the 1st and 3rd positions. I've found that with the shift lever housing in a...
