hey guys.

just installed my type R gearbox and the starter motor from my vti-r just won't go back in for some reason.

it goes in most of the way but won't sit flush with the surface on the transmission. sits out about 1/2 a centimeter and just wont go in.

all I can think of is maybe there's a difference between either vti-r starters and type R ones, or a difference between the starters for OBD1 and OBD2.

mine's 95' and OBD1.

any input would be much appreciated.
