Alrigh guys, I have mine in, and all i can say is Wow, this is a nice unit.

the car feels 100% different. gone is torque steer, and the car really plants you in you seat. the car has a hard time breaking free now unless it's wet weather.

day to day driving is the same as the OE diff it only comes to shine when you put the hamme down or you come to less than desirable condition (wet slush snow).

I give it a thumbs up for this product.

i would agree with that statement, yet with people running high hp turbo hondas, i'd be willing to bet that we tend to change projects more than actually wear out most projects.

I'm getting my LSD installed by Mistabone down here in Cinci. You're close enough you might want to consider that option too. He's pretty reasonable... PM him. He's a good guy.

buy the LSD, bearings, then we'll talk about the speedo gear.

Average $150 for a LSD install if all goes ok.

Myself I want a OBX diff to test on the street to use at Mid Ohio if I ever go road racing.

Chip, Charles, or Bone, no "CHUCK" here.

They are referring to the 2 large Honda/OEM bearings that are installed on the diff. Best to replace these instead of trying to reuse the bearings on the stock diff.

Go to a Honda or Acura dealer and purchase them there. Unless you choose to buy them from a bearing catalog...just be sure you get the right size!

Charlie??? That will get you hurt

Also, easier to buy a speedo ring also for $18.75........

That way no need to press off old bearings to get the old ring off. This keeps the stock diff intact incase you ever wanna go back to stock.

It also allows you to measure OAL to get a good idea if you'll need to reshim.

I could always pickup your tranny in Cbus, install the parts at my house, then bring it back up. I've already got one to pickup (ISB), would make it easier.
