It kind of feels like it's rubbing somewhere when I slide it back. I'm pretty sure I know where it is but it's a little too late here to finish it off with the Dremel. I'll have to wait until morning.



Look at all the places there are to drill holes for the parking brake cables
Kris, were there this many in your car? Which ones do I use?
And I'm guessing there is a way to get more slack from the cables themselves? With how much I have now, it doesn't look like it will work with any of the spots there.



Test fitting of the center console/parking brake




Also, there wasn't a nut on the back side of the parking brake for the right side. There was on the left side, but not on the right. I will just have to get a longer bolt and a nut and locking washer for the other side. No biggie.


Here's a little breakdown

330 Innovative motor mounts from Excelerate
275 Random Technology cat from Excelerate
1380 6 speed CL-S transmission from LKQ
1000 in OEM Acura parts (clutch/flywheel, clutch master cylinder, clutch/brake pedals, trans mounts, shifter and cables, nuts/bolts, trans fluid, UERA grease, etc.)
140 Tein S.Tech from Black Market
256 Tokico HP off ebay



$3381 But only $2380 of that is for the transmission work. Getting the module will put me at 3K.
