If the wiring is right, get the 5spd ECU in and hopefully that solves the prob....if not double check the wiring and if thats kosher, it could be a bad VSS. I got my 5spd ecu from the donor car and it was thrown in with a few other things for like 70 bux. I went to Honda to rechip the key and they were actin like douchebags but they did it. It cost me about 150 cause they said i needed a new key and that the old key wouldn't be able to be programmed unless the new/clean key was programmed and they duplicated the coding from the new key to the old. I think it was BS though but i needed it done so i was like **** it.
As for the clutch pedal you should put a buildup of washers 1/2" to 3/4" (mine is 5/8" right now) between the firewall and the pedal assembly.

welcome to the site.

as for the 5k limit, its cuz your auto ecu thinks your car is in park. if you were to take out the auto tranny when you had it in d4, you wouldnt have that problem, haha.

but the car looks good. not really feeling the stickers, but its nice.
