Default which axles and diff's are you guys running?

I just wanted to hear what everyone is running in their boosted hondas?I also would like to know what problems you have had in the past and how often do you have to replace parts due to them failing either on your dd or track car? Thanks Antonio

Stock D-series axles and Quaife LSD. I have no problems launching at the track on slicks from redline (7300rpms). I do have problems breaking axles coming out of taco bell parking lots though...

Cusco 1way LSD (bling), ZC halfshaft (eh bling), and liam821 equal length d-series axles (not so bling). To make the axles i used 90 integra axles ends (the part that goes into the tranny) with sohc passanger side (the short one) axles. Ghheettttooooooo but it works.

What kind of power are you guys putting down and are you guys daily driving these cars? I always see alot of posts about oem axles lasting awhile and on the other hand I also see people that constantly break aftermarket axles?

Stock axles will handle a lot of power if you preload. This is pulling the e-brake at the line and letting the clutch out until it engages enough to make your car squat a little bit. By doing this their is a lot less strain on your drivetrain when you let the clutch go all the way. Search around there are some good videos of Tony1 launching at the track and you can actually see his car squat a little bit.

Also, You should be slipping the clutch, not just dumping it. Instant power brakes axles. Ease into it with preloading as beerbong explained above..

what he said

THere are lots of high horsepower guys on this board and elsewhere that are running stock axles with little to no problems ... whether it be on street tires, radials or slicks.

to answer someone else's question .... 410whp @ 16 psi .. daily driven at 12
