## Overview

The Acuity Shift Linkage Bushing Upgrade replaces OEM rubber bushings in select 2007-2017 Honda Civics and Fits with precision-machined Acetal and 6061-T6 aluminum spherical bushings.

Tested extensively on street and track, it delivers a sharper, more connected shifting experience while ensuring long-term durability and corrosion resistance.

## Description

Shifter Cable Bushing for select 2007+ Hondas by Acuity Understanding the Science of that Perfect Shift Feel:Years of experience have taught the engineers at ACUITY that there are many elements to a refined, responsive shift. Compliance from flimsy components in the shift linkage leave the driver feeling detached from the transmission. ACUITY combats this by replacing the OEM rubber bushings with much stiffer Acetal and 6061-T6 Aluminum. A large-diameter, custom spherical bearing minimizes long-term wear and tear while eliminating the binding that is caused by most aftermarket solid shifter cable bushings. Loose fitting components also contribute to a poor shifting feel. That's why ACUITY uses integral o-rings on the outside of each bushing to provide a perfect fit with your OEM cables. Tested on street cars, track cars, and ACUITY's unreasonably violent shifter testing machine, these bushings are designed to be robust and proven to last. Each bushing kit is laser etched with a unique serial number and includes stainless steel hardware to help prevent long-term corrosion, keeping your bushings looking great even longer. And if all of that isn't impressive enough, the bushings are over 20% lighter than their OEM counterparts, weighing in at only 48 grams (with hardware).

Review: Works as it should and A+ customer service - Used these bushings in my 13 civic si. They do what they are intended to do. Shifting feels more precise and not as sloppy. I decided to get these in the meantime as the shifter is currently out of stock. I’ve read some bad reviews of people saying they did nothing but what do you expect? You are only charging the bushings! The difference is there for sure. Good quality and everything fit perfectly. The bigger one took about 2 minutes and the smaller one took about 10 minutes because the ring is a little different but with each try I got closer and closer to getting the locking ring on. My car has a blox intake and I did not need to remove it to replace these bushings, This cut down on my installation time. Depending on what model civic you have and what kind of intake you may have to remove the intake to get to these bushings. My suggestion is to watch a video on their YouTube channel. Ive been in contact with Russ for a few weeks now and the support is second to none. I plan on getting the shifter when it’s back in stock.
Review: Amazing improvement - This, with the $25 short shifter knob, and your shifting will feel like Prom Night. I forgot how good it could be!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for an 09 Civic Si
*by B***N on March 31, 2024*

I replaced the stock bushings in my 2009 Civic Si. I would describe this as an easy job to do with the only difficulty being having to removed the air box prior to install. The small bushing had more slop on the pin than I wanted so a piece of electrical tape wrapped around the pin filled in the gap. Shifter feels much more positive going into gear now and it's easier to find the gates left to right. I'd highly recommend.
