It's a 2100.

Wouldn't put that clutch in a 300+ hp car, huh? Funny, there is a 2600 in the tens, several in the 11's, and a 2100 at 11.3. All at NED, all last year.

Where's the foot in mouth icon when you need it?

You can make a 2100 last on a 300+ hp car if your easy on the clutch wait that's not fun, never mind.

With a 2600 you break a lot of axles when you first get it installed especially if it's a 90-92 dsm.

Bull. Axles are by far not the weakest link in the drivetrain. People will break 10 transfer cases and 5 denter diffs for every axle that goes.

Ok I guess all the axles I broke was my imagination.

On the 90-92 dsm's they used smaller axles in the rear. They break easy.

Yeah that works, but I picked a resistor box up from a 90-91 Integra at a junkyard, the guy didn't even know what it was so he gave it to me for free. It shouldnt cost more that 5 dollars from a junkyard if that after all it's just resistors.

Now THAT is a great sales pitch.
I think you have proven now and forever how superior Honda's are over DSMs, thanks.

Yea, if you like slow cars

They only made the smaller axles for 2 years, even with the smaller axles you will only have problems if you have a good clutch (like a 2600) and you drive your car really hard.

I've seen aftermarket axles for honda, guess they have problems breaking axles after they get a respectable amount of power.

My local DSM club will on a given street night will have 4-5 cars in the low 11's and 10 or so in the 12's, and they will probably get 5 passes per car. You do that math on how many fast passes that is.

That's XX passes, all of them with 1.7s or faster 60' times.

I usually see 1-3 people break transfer cases each year.

You do the math. What percentage of the passes have broken transfer cases?

And that's not even counting the high 12 and 13 second cars, which never break drivetrain parts, and there are so many of I can't even count.

I know some people have problems with there transfer case blowing when they get into 11's but I personally haven't seen it happen. But with that many runs I'm not surprised, something has to break no matter what car it is.

Hey, since we're talking Hondas + injectors, you might find this little tidbit I picked up from an EMS tuenar interesting. Bigger injectors flow more fuel in a shorter time, which due to the stock Honda ECU injector firing calibrations has the injector firing prematurely in big injector setups. Anyone who has played with a full standalone knows what an injector advance table is, and anybody with a good imagination and understanding of cars can figure out what I'm saying. This is especially noticeable at idle/as an idle quality complaint. Injector fires, hits the back of the valve, and then the valve opens. We used to think it was solely due to the Honda ECU being programmed to not support an injector fire time of less than 1.08 ms, but... the trick is to retard the distributor mechanically while adding timing to your ignition tables so that ignition timing is still the same from the engine's point of view until idle problems smooth out.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Thanks for that bit of info

Very informative
