Hey guys im currently starting my new buildup...I am wondering want kind of transmission set up will be best suited for me gear wise and whatnot...its going to be a eg hatch with a ls/vtech big turbo with between 700 and 900whp...before i had the motor in a crx making 550whp with a cable ls trans with no lsd still running 10.1s...thanks for the input guys!

Also what clutch should I run?

 

Heres what I do. Use what you have, or can get for the cheapest/easiest.

With that much power you should get a twin disk.

 

what is your budget the 700-900hp range requires a driveline setup the is as much as or more than the value of your engine

 

right now its up in the air...im just looking at what my options are and what would be the most effective without going way overboard...i was thinking of using a ls hydro trans and maybe changing the gearing up a little and throw a lsd in it...what brand clutch is recomended?

Mike

 

tilton is my clutch of choice.

 

I run the competition clutch twin and love it. If you have the money but it right the first time, buy a dog box, ppg, liberty, gforce, at least some 5.9s axles.

 

x2 on Tilton and save your money... Do it once buy PPG, I learned my lesson already. Lol...

 

And while your at it you might as well pick you up a gforce T1 shifter lol

 

Or become a really good driver and run stock transmissions on 750hp+ cars like the Puerto Ricans do. If not.. Twin Disk, dog box, 5.9s done deal, happy racing.

 

anyone have problems with ppg...i have a ppg dogbox in my wrx and i love it but i did have issues with it breaking when i first got it in less then 5000 miles...its been ok since its been rebuilt knock on wood

 

With those boxes you really have to do something bad to break it. Like going from 3 to 1 or something like that.

 

wheres a goood place to buy the ppg from? what do they typically range for hondas...pretty new to the honda game

 

+1 on the T1 gforce shifter i bought the regular gforce shifter and i hated it had to do lots of work to make it woke its not a bolt in deal like the t1 modified shifter is

 

T1.... 4 to 6 k

 

Albins has a dog set that is currently being tested. I know one car that is using it just went 8.92 @ 179.31 at the West Coast Shootout. If you plan on driving the car on the street at all I would checkout Albins Honda B Series Synchro Engagement Helical Gear Set which has been out for a while now. Also if you plan on going with the dog box you may look into getting an aftermarket bellhousing by nrg tech or liberty. Hopefully the people that are using this gearset will chime in. Good luck

 

Buy a gear set or replace stock trannys every 2 runs

 

Albins gears set all the way.
street/strip car = Albins syncro set
track **** = Albins dog set

dont wast your $$$ on the 3 letter sets

the driveline is going to cost more than you motor
PPG's, g force shifter Dss pro level setup! call it a day

 

Where can i find these sets @ please pm me.

 

fixed

 

if ur on a budjet treat some stock gears and get a twin mine held up to about 60 passes with no issues power ranging from750-850whp and 10.1-9.5at 150-159mph in a 2400lb car

 

X2

 

liberty is still a great box as well.
