Re: lsd tranny
I have a zc trans w/lsd, but, like Ami, have not yet put it on the road. It has to start first! However, if you want to do any serious racing, you'll want it. You'll hook up a ton better, get better launches, and that will mean better race times. so yes, i say, if you have the $$, get the lsd. you'll wish you had if you don't.

Re: Re: lsd tranny
LSD tranny is teh goodness.
I want one, I need one.You should have one. Its much better for handling and lanching, and just traction in general.

someone told me that the handling is worse because when doing a sharp turn it still works 50% on each tire instead of 40% and 60% like its suppose to. |

Re: Re: Re: Re: lsd tranny
I think you're right on the theory, but on a light car like the civic/crx, it won't affect you as much, cuz there's not as much pressure on the tires as there is on heavier cars... Never heard anyone complain about excess tire wear or anything before...

I got a chance to drive my buddy's '96 DX w/GSR motor/tranny. He had an lsd & the first thing I noticed (besides the fact that it was fast as hell) was almost zero torque steer. So add that to the list of pros!

I would get a lsd liek everyone else said if you have the money. I wish I had one. how do you tell if a tranny has lsd....can you see right through where the axles go in or will you see a bar in there? Sorry to change the topic, but if I ever decide to get one, I want to make sure I get it.

Re: lsd tranny
the guy at hmotorsonline told us if you see the bar it's not lsd. jer decided to look in his. he saw something but it wasn't a bar.
you can look for the lsd stamp outside on the case

Re: lsd tranny
I got mine by a fluke, and the motor importers all tell me that they've dried up. they're really about impossible to find now... if you look on http://www32.brinkster.com/tjshondas/ they tell you how to tell them apart...
